Ok....if you're teaching graphing on a two dimensional plane, you HAVE TO SHOW THIS OFF!!!  Google this: 2 sqrt(-abs(abs(x)-1)*abs(3-abs(x))/((abs(x)-1)*(3-abs(x))))(1+abs(abs(x)-3)/(abs(x)-3))sqrt(1-(x/7)^2)+(5+0.97(abs(x-.5)+abs(x+.5))-3(abs(x-.75)+abs(x+.75)))(1+abs(1-abs(x))/(1-abs(x))),-3sqrt(1-(x/7)^2)sqrt(abs(abs(x)-4)/(abs(x)-4)),abs(x/2)-0.0913722(x^2)-3+sqrt(1-(abs(abs(x)-2)-1)^2),(2.71052+(1.5-.5abs(x))-1.35526sqrt(4-(abs(x)-1)^2))sqrt(abs(abs(x)-1)/(abs(x)-1))+0 Common Core Standards, Math Strategies, Math Resources, Math Concepts, Math Sites, Math Activities, Sped Math

I used to like COLOR BY NUMBERS.  They took all the pressure off from having to worry about getting those weird looking places where your shading would overlap and would make your picture look HAIRY.

OK, so here's the plan (I'm very hopeful)...I am going to teach my students how to take notes this year in Math and Science.  They are going to keep a Math notebook this year.  They will take notes and represent the concepts they are learning graphically.  This will be done EACH DAY.  Once a week, without warning, I will collect their notebooks and assess that day's entry for a formal grade. Math Interactive Notebook, Math Journals, Math Notebooks, Math Notebook

My kiddos usually make SYMMETRY MONSTERS, where they trace their names on construction paper folded in half.  They cut around their names and when unfolded, they look like monsters.

I cringe when I have to miss CALENDAR TIME.  I LOVE calendar time.  You know all those math concepts that kiddos just have to memorize?  I present them early on in the year and we use songs, chants, rhymes, and movement to practice them EVERY DAY.  Pretty soon it's automatic for my kiddos and we all feel SO SMART!!! Math Time
