How do you best support students who are below grade level in math? How do you meet their needs, without holding back the rest of the class?

As teachers, you already use a variety of engagement strategies in classroom instruction. However, given students’ special needs and different learning styles, many teachers may struggle with finding the right approach and the time to engage all students fully. As teachers, we become able, often through trial and error, to identify strategies that work within a particular group or ability level.

Can you describe a specific memorable lesson or activity when most of your students were engaged or worked particularly well for a particular student or group of students?

I was introduced to Magic School over the summer. Have you used it with your students? How have you used it? I learned how to app smash it with Book Creator, but I am looking for some other suggestions.

What are your favorite play based learning activities you have used with your students?
