Guided Math

Guided Math is similar to Guided Reading in that the teacher puts the students into small, flexible groups and the students work on specific standards being taught in centers around the room. We have been working with our instructional coach on implementing guided math in our classroom! Guided math centers are a way to practice the skills taught in the whole group anchor lessons. This week's guided math centers focus on numbers to 10 and number bonds. Students are placed in ability level groups or groups based on mathematical concept or understanding needs. Differentiation is achieved as students are in different groups and instruction is adapted to meet the needs of the student. At each center, the students connected their math learning to the Common Core State Standards for units one and two in Math in Focus!
