Let’s Start With a Number Routine!

Let’s Start With a Number Routine!

What is a Number Routine?

• Short (five to fifteen-minute) intentional mini-lessons

• An opportunity for teachers to revisit and extend students’ number sense and basic computation

• Repeated experiences for students to communicate about numbers

When Should I Teach With Routines?

• Traditionally routines are presented everyday at the beginning of the math class

• Many Common Core Standards develop over time and incorporating them into routines will assist with mastery.

How Do I Decide on a Routine?

• Let your students drive the routines you focus on• Observing students during a lesson can give

valuable information and provide information about which skills need to be revisited.

• Whatever routines you choose, your students will gain the most from these routines if they work with them regularly.

• Stay consistent alternating between a few routines over time until students demonstrate mastery.

Where Can I Find Examples of Routines?

• Grade Level Mathematics Common Core Wiki

Mathematical Instructional Levels with theCommon Core Standards

• Beginning of the Year Instructional Level Placement Recommendations

• Groupings– Should be determined guided by this document– Should be made within the first few weeks of

school– On grade level classes should include mixed

abilities

Now that I have my students tested and grouped, what should my 75

minute math block look like?

What are essential components of a math block?

– How do these activities connect to the Common Core?

– Which of these items are most important?

What Should My Math Block Look Like?

Planning

How will I assess my students on a regular basis?

Formative Assessments are used to inform instruction and

provide feedback to students on their learning.

• There are a variety of types of formative assessments• They can be done before, during, and after

instruction.• They can be given with a small group, individually, or

as students work independently

Closure!!It’s Sooo Important!!!

• ONE thing I will continue to do in my math class

• ONE thing I will add to my math class• ONE thing I will eliminate from my math class

Thank you for what you do for our youngest mathematicians.

Have a great school year!
