Math Interactive Notebooks
students will need a
composition notebook to
start the year.
In our class, we are going to use interactive notebooks. The
purpose of the interactive notebook is to enable students to be
creative, independent thinkers and problem solvers. Interactive
notebooks are used for class notes as well as for other activities
where the student will be asked to express his/her own ideas and
process the information presented in class. Students will be
responsible for keeping their own notebooks. When notes are
needed while doing homework or studying for tests, I will do my
best to keep them updated with a link on my website for
them.
Students will use a lot of
glue sticks and tape. Supplies donations will
always be welcome, and you may see requests for more as the
year progresses.
“Flipped” Videos
I also like to use some of the “flipped classroom” philosophy, in
which lecture time becomes homework and what would be homework
becomes classwork. This allows me to spend less time talking “at”
students and more time observing and facilitating practice and
classwork. It is also helpful in that students can take their own
time in taking notes, can rewatch or pause as necessary, and watch
videos to make up missed material when absent. It also helps
parents and tutors see the material being taught and how it is
presented.
Remind App You are invited to download the “Remind” app on
your phone and join our class!
This app is very useful for all of us— • I am able to send out
reminders for studying,
additional tips on homework, and reminders for when larger
assignments and projects are due;
• Parents, you may text me questions you may have, or let me know
your child will be absent
from math class; • Students, you can ask me questions about
homework, and I believe you can also send a message to others in
your class. This could be
helpful when you are absent.
