Math Tasks:
I give my students a math task once a week. The common core really focuses on student thinking and going
deeper. Not all of the information is given in each task and that is on purpose. For example: If the students need
to figure out how many legs they counted at the zoo, they first need to make an estimate of how many of each
animal they saw. The teacher does not tell them how many animals, but guides them in their thinking. For
example if a student says (thinking they are hilarious of course) I saw a million hippos at the zoo!, the teacher
can say: Would you really see that many? Ok well as long as you do the math right, the number is up to you.
The students can work in partners or groups to complete the task. Try not to give them too much help or
information. Remember: the new core is trying to get them to become independent and deep thinkers. Below are
some guiding questions you can ask. When finished, have students share their thinking and their work.
Explain
Tell.

Exit Tickets
At the end of a lesson, I pass out an exit ticket. Using exit tickets is a quick and effective way to assess
learning. I usually grade them either as my students walk out the door for recess or after school. If I grade them
before recess and a student's work is incorrect, I send the student back to his/her desk to complete the exit
ticket accurately before going to recess. If I grade them after school, I make a list of students who need to be in
my re-teaching group.
I Cans.
These are the objectives for G 1 that are to be displayed and talked about throughout the unit. They are
colorful and in kid friendly terms.
Extensions: I decided to make twice as many cookies for the class party as cupcakes. How many

the big batch.)
