FLEXIBLE CLASSROOM

This year I decided to experiment with a flexible classroom. Math can be very uncomfortable for some students. That added to all the middle school hormones and drama it can get even worse. So I decided to try to make my middle school math classroom as comfortable as possible.

I am curious, are you fan? Let me know.

TESTING IS ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In our final attempts to review and cram all the 6th grade content in we have been learning and practicing with Moby Max, IXL, youtube, etc.

Today students will be doing a practice on IXL covering the skills 6. GG.3, 6.GG.4, 6.GG.19, 6.HH.2, & 6.HH.1

Afterwards, we will be discussing frequency tables and histograms. Below is some information on histograms for extra practice.
