I'm new to 6th grade (was a 4th grade teacher) and I was trying to create a calendar math curriculum that was rigorous enough for middle schoolers. You hit the nail on the head!

It takes about 10 minutes for the kids to fill out the form (during Math Workshop) and 10 - 15 minutes to review.<br /><br />2. I do not put them on the doc cam.

Do you pull them down and put them on a doc cam to go over them? I can't see how all the kids would be able to see it and follow along.
