How Spiral Math and Calendar Math Have Changed my Life

Ok...so that is a bit dramatic.  But really, I am not exaggerating.

If you have read my blog for any length of time, you have no doubt heard me talk about how much I love Calendar Math.  I mean, I have written about it more than any other single subject on my blog.  It is something I feel so strongly about that I preach it to anyone who will listen (especially you, my faithful blog readers :))

But, a second math component that I talk about occasionally, but really has just as much impact on my math teaching is my spiral math homework.  I literally could not live without it.

Let me tell you why I love these two pieces of my math block puzzle.  You see, these both take care of those rote standards that I need my kids to know, yet they just don't seem to grasp from that one lesson I teach that one day of the school year.  Things like place value (have you ever tried to get the kids to remember to write expanded form in March????), plotting on number lines, or general multiplication and division.  These are skills the kids MUST know, yet don't get nearly enough practice in the traditional way of doing things.

Great way to get more practice in with math skills is to use a spiral math in 5th, 4th, and 3rd grade
But with Spiral Math and Calendar Math, they not only get more practice, but they get DAILY practice!  The homework is 10 problems a day, not of what we just learned, but of EVERYTHING that we learned. The kids were constantly seeing the same style problem over and over and over.  Their skills were always being refreshed....and it works like MAGIC!

Because nothing is being forgotten, the kids are always practicing those basic skills they need, nothing is ever lost.   I can honestly say that because of this homework and Calendar if I don't get to a lesson in math that day...I STILL FEEL OK!  I know all of the standards are covered and I simply DO NOT EVER stress about math.  Ever.

Doing homework and Calendar in this daily, repetitive way has freed up all that time I used to use for rote skill to work with models, explore concepts, and get really deep into CCSS!   I get the kids thinking about math processes, instead of always worrying about the rote memory of it all.   It really is amazing what one little 10 problem page can do and one math warm up (that takes all of 10 minutes).

However, doing the work isn't enough.  The key to this is that every.single.day, without fail, we go over the homework AND Calendar.  I have it worked into my math block (just 10 minutes each) to go over the problems.  I don't teach during this time, I just show the students how to do the work, with their help at times, on the ELMO and then they take it home to study for later.  This review of the problems is what makes this homework and Calendar better than anything I have done before.  If the kids didn't get it at home the night before, they get it when we go over it.  Then, when they see a similar problem on a homework that week (or the next or the next) they *do* get it.

Really, this is the MOST meaningful time of my day.  It makes math a stressfree zone in my room.  The kids like it, they benefit from the repeated practice, and I am a happy teacher because of it.

Do you do any sort of spiral math or daily calendar math?  Tell us about it!

  1. I currently do a daily math warm up with 2 problems a day that spiral skills. I think this is what I need to keep my kids practicing at home. I usually assign a workbook page to go with my daily lesson but I feel like they are just going through the motions and not getting a real grasp on why they are doing what they are doing. This may be just what I need!!

  2. I would love to try this out in my classroom. I have the lowest 4th graders, so they really need something that is constantly reviewing the skills with them. I would love to have a copy. :)

  3. What a fantastic idea! In my district we are required to do a "do now" every day. I had been using a consumable workbook called "Heads Up" but it really isn't working for me. I'd love to try out your math calendar! I teach 5th currently. Either way, this is totally going on my wishlist!

  4. I've done spiral review before and it's worked well. But I haven't had a chance to update it to match common core. I teach 4th grade.

  5. Oh my goodness, yes! Math is really stressful this year. Not only did I switch schools, but the district switched programs. We went from a program that spiraled to a more language-based (almost) mastery program, but it has gaps... and so do my students! I love teaching Title 1 students, but some bounce around quite a bit and have missed portions of primary math. Now, they have a shaky foundation and this new program isn't forgiving - especially if students are top notch readers to pull out the key info. Spiraling skills would be a perfect addition to my just-getting-it-together math centers, or homework since I can't rely on the day's lesson's homework going home and being fully understood. A lot of foundational skills need to be addressed alongside the regular program. I would love to incorporate this into the day! Grade 4 -patricia

  8. I teach 5th grade and this is my first year ever teaching math. (We were on a block schedule before.) Our district uses Everyday Math, which I have very mixed feelings about. I like that it spirals, but a lot of time the material within the units feel disconnected. I would love to use a more consistent Calendar math and homework system that incorporated more practice, which EDM greatly lacks. Love your resources!

    Thank you!

  9. I've purchased several of your products & have enjoyed using them with my fourth graders. I recently bought the 5th grade edition of the spiral math review bundle after contemplating whether to get the 4th or 5th grade edition for my students. I ended up getting the 5th grade level but was surprised to find out that my students aren't able to use it at this time. I'd love to receive a week of the 4th grade level to see if that better meets the specific needs of my 4th grade gifted cluster class. Thanks again for providing such awesome products! - Marsha wattmb@staffordschools.net

  11. I L-O-V-E your calendar and spiral homework!! It has saved my skin for the last couple of years. Currently our 4th graders have the HIGHEST scores in math in our DISTRICT. wOOt! I guarantee our scores are where they are because of the calendar and homework. I allow up to 15 minutes for each one because I have some super low kiddos but I would not teach 4th or 5th grade without these resources :)

    I just had a new colleague observe me teach math yesterday and she was amazed that a) my kids could DO this math and do it well and b) how engaged and interactive the kids were.

Buy her bundle pack...it comes with 3rd-5th grade and you can start with the 4th grade version and "graduate" to the 5th grade version :)

  13. Your post is perfect timing for me. I just went into a colleague's room this morning needing some "bright idea" on how to vamp my review time during math. All day racking my brain. I've tried Mountain Math, but it didn't become a daily routine. I just can't seem to find a routine that I stick to. I'd love to try out your product for 3rd grade, rogwachi@gmail.com

  14. I love the idea of spiral math! Currently I do a daily 5-question powerpoint and the kids answer the questions on whiteboards at their seats. Having something that is bound and handwritten that can be worked on with me or a tutor later for kids who need more one-on-one practice would be terrific to try though! Thank you for this!

  40. I've just started to use the numerical form of the date this year as a bit of a warm-up. Years ago, I used to have kids make up math questions to go with their birthdate that their classmates would solve on the student's birthday. This idea probably came from the old Learning magazines of the 90's! Anyway, we need new ideas for warm-ups. The Gr. 6 teachers are complaining that some of our kids can't even distinguish between even and odd numbers so I'm throwing every example of even/odd their way, even in gym! I teach Gr. 5 near Toronto. My e-mail is: skelding@rogers.com. Thanks, Stephanie!

  45. I do use a spiral review in as a center rotation, not on a nightly basis. I do like that thought. It is good to use the spiral method because it gives you time to address any 'holes' throughout the year and not have a complete reteach in the spring. I would like to try your 4th grade spiral math.

  61. Our new CC math program has no homework. I definitely feel that homework most days is necessary for my students to get more practice. I usually just write up a worksheet reviewing the day's lesson. I love the idea of spiraling homework questions so students get additional practice on those standards and skills not yet mastered. I'd love to get a copy of some of these for grade 3.

    I am glad I stumbled upon your blog!! I have enjoyed the posts you have shared. I wish our sons current teacher did Spiral Math with her class.I am currently a stay at home mom working on my BA towards Education and part-time homeschooling. After looking at your Spiral Math samples I know this is something I plan on using once I am finished with my degree and have a class of my own.

    Our oldest is in 4th grade but we have him doing 5th grade math and since we are challenging him to the 5th grade math on our own we don't have his teacher to turn to for assistance. If you could share your 5th grade Spiral Math with me I would be so grateful.

    I am currently using your 5th Grade Calendar Math set with a few tweaks of my own... It has been awesome in that it continues to review those tough concepts. However, how do you get your lower students to "buy in" to completing the work? This is where I struggle. I also feel that I do not have time to thoroughly go through the problems like we should every day. How long is your Math Block? I would love to hear more about your classroom. I would also like to view the Spiral Math. I think this is something that could really benefit us! Thanks in advance for your feedback!

  78. YES!! I would love to try a week of this out! I tried to do calendar math at the beginning of the year and have gotten away from it due to time constraints and demands of my students. I agree with some of the comments above when you say sending home a practice sheet or page in their workbook does seem to just seem to set them in motion but do they really comprehend and do they remember what we learned earlier in the year? I want to get back to calendar math so much!

  84. Hey, thank you for sharing. I teach 4th and 5th grade math. I currently use engageNY, but have received a lot of pushback from parents on the HW. I was thrilled to find this post, spiral HW makes so much sense. I would love to try the spiral HW and calendar math to see if it is something I can incorporate.

    Also, do you grade the HW? And what program do you use to type the HW? I find word frustrating when trying to use diagrams and fractions an such.

  95. Hi Stephanie!
    I am a newbie to fifth grade this year! I live and teach in Southern Indiana where times are tough for us, teachers. We adopted the Indiana College and Career Readiness standards. Our school system was amidst textbook adoption when the Common Core was "thrown out" so the provided curriculum does not directly align with our standards. Resources like yours are so greatly helpful and appreciated. Thank you for sharing! I am definitely heading over to your TPT store to grab some of your math bundles soon.

    My email is ryndersa@nlcs.k12.in.us

    Thanks again!

  98. Hi! I love your blog and ideas. I have been teaching 5th Grade ELA for 2 years and this year I am in a DUAL Immersion teaching English ELA and MATH (reinforcing science and SS) I have not taught math for 2 years. We use Every Day Math in our district. I have 1 hr of math with the kids most days some days a little more. I am looking at your Spiral and Calendar Math. What curriculum do you use in addition to these resources. How long do you spend on these 2 resources a day (going over calendar math and the HW?) . How long are your math lessons. Thanks so much for your thoughts! nina@ninasilitch.com
