Dear Center Lovers,
During our Teaching K-6 Math class last Thursday, residents got together in groups and created math stations for learning numbers 1-20. Once we completed making a chart that had directions for our center, our professor then had us do a gallery walk. For those who do not know, a gallery walk is when you walk around the classroom looking at projects/pictures. It was really cool seeing how creative my classmates are. I would love to use math centers in my second grade classroom. I think this could really benefit student's learning because they would learn in their math-level groups, work collaboratively, and focus on what they need. I wonder how this could happen though because I feel like there would not be enough time during our math block. Please feel free to comment with any suggestions! Thank you!
Sincerely,
Miss Hester
My name is Nicole Hester and I am a Senior at the University of South Florida. I am a student participating in the Urban Teacher Residency Partnership Program. Two weeks into my Junior year, I was placed in a 2nd grade classroom with only 30 hours of observation experience. I have been thrown out into the "real world" of teaching! Now I am a Senior starting off the school year in 5th grade, with pre planning in August! This blog is here for me to learn from my mistakes and to reflect.
