This course incorporates Halloween-themed activities to teach essential math concepts such as classifying shapes, angles, and lines, measurement: weight, lengths, and capacity, multi-digit multiplication, and data representation through bar charts and pictographs. Students will engage in interactive lessons that make math both educational and enjoyable, fostering a love for learning and enhancing problem-solving skills. πΈIn my class, we will utilize the gradual release of responsibility model, structured around the "I do, we do, you do" framework. This approach ensures that students build confidence and competence progressively. I do: I will begin each lesson by modeling the concept or skill, and providing clear explanations and demonstrations. This stage allows students to see the correct process and understand the expectations. We do: Next, we will move to guided practice where we work on problems together. This collaborative stage allows for interactive learning and immediate feedback, ensuring that students are actively engaged and can ask questions as they arise. You do: Finally, students will transition to independent practice. During this stage, they will work on tasks individually, applying what they have learned. I will provide feedback and support to help reinforce their understanding and address any misconceptions. Throughout these stages, there will be various guided practice activities and independent opportunities, each designed to provide continuous feedback and support, ensuring that all students can master the material at their own pace
