I"m a first year teacher and I teach a some kiddos that struggle. I'd love to focus on improving my teaching there! (There are SO many reading professional development books out there - I just can't find any that are great for upper elementary math! I'm working on creating math notebooks inspired by you and other bloggers over the summer to increase engagement and accountability!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17210624147690867608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017698507183263684.post-13333718773469950012012-04-07T20:32:26.373-05:002012-04-07T20:32:26.373-05:00YES!!!

The math worksheet one is not as good as I was hoping, but there are still some great ideas in there.
