Is
it just me, or has February FLOWN by?!
It may have been the nearly 2 weeks that I was down with pneumonia—I feel
like I missed a lot, and am finally catching up.
Our
3rd grade classroom has been a little beehive of activity this
month, and we’re delving into FRACTIONS!
Looking forward to setting up a classroom fraction museum on
Friday. The kids will be “docents”
explaining their fraction exhibits to the other classes that will visit our
room. Can’t wait to see what they come up with!
We
have some work to do before then so that we’re fraction “experts.” I LOVE trying to incorporate writing into
math to further solidify the students’ understanding. That’s how this Writing RAFT freebie came
about. It’s a February FREEBIE from me
to you! J
RAFT
stands for Role, Audience, Format, and Topic.
It's a great way to differentiate writing and to provide choice and
challenge! Students choose from 6
different writing prompts to show what they know about fractions! The prompts are color-coded for easy
use. A great way to extend math and
assess what students really understand about fractions!
You
can grab your free RAFT at my TPT store by clicking here. Hope you can use this with your kiddos, and I’d
love to hear your feedback!
Enjoy!
