Just found your blog and am LOVING it.

Hi Kristina! I would suggest looking at Jo Boaler’s website. She talks a lot about it at the upper elementary level, possibly you could take some of the ideas and apply them to middle school.

I don’t at this time, but it’s a great idea!

I’ve even read some more than once. You are so helpful and encouraging!! Thank you for all that you do 🙂

P.S. I’m trying to convince my husband that I “need” your bundle on TPT too! lol #butireallydo

I am intrigued by your comment regarding fact fluency vs. number sense. How did you work on building number sense in the upper grades? Our school does a school wide reading incentive program and we have a team that is looking into how we can build a math centered school wide initiative. We originally were going to build it around fact fluency, so now I’m wondering if we should think about basing it somehow around number sense. Any advice and/or activities you have would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I have tried this in the past and find that I still have several “lazy” students that don’t want to contribute to a group. Do you have suggestions?
