Time allowance to complete each activity:

5-10 minutes - read through the text individually.

40-50 minutes - answer questions using the text as guidance (including extension activity)

Time allowance to assess:

A class set of activities might take around 15-20 minutes to mark; the teacher can then send the students their marks automatically, which allows them to read back through their work. Nearly all answers are not automatically generated, but only require a small amount of work to assign points. This is because the aim is to get students writing answers and not to just have multiple choice options.

This is an outline of a daily schedule that can be used to help with:

• Pacing
• Displaying I Can statements
• Organizing/Displaying Small Group rotations

I recommend making an outline copy for each day of the week, so you can go in an add different statements/needs/groups for each day to match with lesson plans.

For small group rotations, there is a 60 second song that plays whenever you click the play button in the top left hand corner. This is used to signify how much time the group needs to be changed to the next group.

For the choice board/WIN time (What Is Needed), I have had students come up and write their names using the interactive whiteboard to keep track of where they are going. If you do not have an interactive whiteboard, then I would recommend writing it on a normal whiteboard and using magnets with students names/numbers on them to help keep track of where each student is for choice time.

This an outline/example of a small mini lesson used for adding with regrouping. It uses the Pear Deck add-on on Google Drive.

Pear Deck is an add-on for Google Slides that allows you to create interactive Google Slides for you and your students to use. I use them for a mini lesson whenever I am teaching/review content in math. It allows you to create slides that have different ways of interacting with them. You can monitor what the students are doing from the teach dashboard, lock their screens to keep it from being a distraction, and save the work that the students do on the Pear Deck to use it for reflection or even formative assessments.

In the slide it includes adding with the "home" method. This is just what I have called adding with base 10 blocks for my students.

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated/paid by Pear Deck. I just love the resource.
