Wow! This is bringing back so many memories!!!!!</span><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">So long story short, I am bringing back SLANTboxes due to some overwhelming dang demand for them. I am NOT about to pay for hosting a site again so free blogger it is! WELCOME BACK! LOL, there are some super old blogs that I am very embarrassed off, but whatever. </span></div><div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">So here we go. Yes, sign-ups have opened. *Please remember if these dates do not work for you, just wait till they do. No one likes to not get a gift. If you can not fully commit please do not sign up.* I will be closing them on <span style="color: #ff00fe;"><b>SUNDAY, AUGUST 7th</b></span> so that I can make matches on <b><span style="color: #3d85c6;">TUESDAY, AUGUST 9th</span></b> when Theodore and Franklin have daycare. You will have until <span style="color: #6aa84f;"><b>SUNDAY, AUGUST 14th</b></span> to let me know if you have not heard a response from your partner. I will do re-matches on <span style="color: #9500ff;"><b>TUESDAY, AUGUST 16th</b></span> if needed. You will chat with your partner and send EACHOTHER (small change from when we used to do it and you had two partners...I do not have time for that) gifts by <b style="color: #ffa400;">September 15th </b><span style="background-color: white;">(HOT TIP. use <a href="https://www.pirateship.com/">PirateShip</a> to print a shipping label from home and have your local USPS pick it up from your house n(or if you are me, school) so you do not have to go to the post office!)</span> I will open up the October/November sign-ups end of September. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">We used to have themes, I am unsure about doing themes again but I will for this one and ask in the sign-ups if you want me to continue with themes. We also used to do ONE handmade thing which I would like to keep, this could be a card so do not think you have to be DIYDana. Try to keep your box around $10-$15 but really NO MORE THAN $50. Listen I am an over gifter, I get it. I prefer to buy quality over cheap, but like seriously, no more than $50. Here is the theme and some ideas for things to send.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Poppins; font-size: x-large;">BACK TO SCHOOL PEACE</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">Ok This month, I am asking you to think about things that help you to stay sane and focus on yourself, because as teachers we tend to overfill our cups. Items in this box should help your partner start to set those professional boundaries and remember to take care of themselves! Things to talk to your partner about via text or email:</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span> How are you?</span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span> Did you drink water today?</span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span> Do you need to talk about anything?</span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span><span> Have you left work yet?</span><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">You could also share relaxing sounds, affirmations, or yoga tips. but also get to know them. Do they even like coffee? Please don't send them coffee if they dont drink it. Speaking of coffee, i have most definitely sent a 5$ Starbuks/Dunkin/Caribou virtual gift cards to partners as pick me up.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">As you are getting to know your partner, its time to start thinking about thier box. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Poppins;">Here is my thought for an awesome box this month should look like:</span></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">A personalized item for their classroom/office - make them name doodle art card, print out some mandala coloring sheets for them and staple them together, or frame some affirmations. Whatever it is, personalized items are always a hit and have been well-loved parts of SLANTboxes. I think as educators we recognize hard work and effort and are also understanding that not everyone is Martha. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">One self-love item that you think your partner would enjoy. There are so many. Here are some ideas I got from my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lessonswithcoffee/" target="_blank">INSTAGRAM stories poll</a></span></li><ul><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">Foot/hand/face masks</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">candles</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">lotions (yes I know we have so much from student gifts so keep this a small thing but if you really love it and it helps...why not)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">a book or bookmark</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">tea/coffee/chocolate (check for allergies)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">nail polish</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">a classroom timer to make sure you leave</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">advil (lol)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">bracelets with reminder words on them</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">reminder cards or plaques for desk</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">those behavior/goal tracker sheets</span></li></ul><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">a small luxury thing:</span></li><ul><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">new pens</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">a notepad</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">cup</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">you get the idea</span></li></ul><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">DON'T forget to send a card. This can be your handmade thing, or it can be a note card or greeting card. Just put a card in the box. </span></li></ul><div><span style="background-color: #fcff01; font-family: Poppins;">BECAUSE I LIKE SUMMARIES:</span></div></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Sunday, August 7th - sign-ups close for me to match</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Tuesday, August 9th - matches are made, check the email you signed up with</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Sunday, August 14th - let me know if you have not heard back from your partner by filling out this form</span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Tuesday, August 16th - re-matches for those that need it will go out. </span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Thursday, September 15th - Send gifts out around here. </span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span>Your box must include:</span></span></li><ul><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">one hand made item</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">one card</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">one self care item</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Poppins;">one luxury classroom item</span></li></ul></ul></div><div><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 21.56px;"><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 21.56px;"><span style="font-family: Poppins;">If you want more information on SLANTboxes i have a STUPID OLD blog post about them <a href="http://lessonswithcoffee.blogspot.com/p/the-slant-box.html" style="color: #1e1e6e; text-decoration-line: none;" target="_blank">HERE!</a><br /><br />If you are ready to sign up please fill out this google form:</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 21.56px;"><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #222222; line-height: 21.56px;"><span style="font-family: Poppins;"><span style="background-color: #ff00fe; font-size: x-large;"><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdVxcpPN8HBBHwiJbjyT78mY6fWcumHRawNzZqODZTVysClCQ/viewform?usp=sf_link" target="_blank">SLANTbox 9/10 2022 sign ups</a></span><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white;">💜</span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Rock Salt;">Cheers!</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Poppins;">💜</span></div></div><div><span style="font-family: Rock Salt; font-size: x-large;">Jameson</span></div><script>

may notice what I am telling you now is also written on the
whiteboard in the last picture.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have
learned that if I write down the words said out loud, it helps keep them more
focused on the lesson. For example, as soon as I said
that the line was 39 inches long, one student said, "UGH? Why not 40!!" another
said, "that's not a nice number." While neither student said "divisibility" - or really used any type of mathematical vocabulary - it was
apparent that they had an understanding that 39 was not going to give them very
"nice" answers when they started breaking the number line apart. </span></p><p style="direction: ltr; language: en-US; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-break-override: none; punctuation-wrap: hanging; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Century Gothic"; font-size: 14pt; language: en-US; mso-ascii-font-family: "Century Gothic"; mso-bidi-font-family: +mn-cs; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-color-index: 1; mso-fareast-font-family: +mn-ea; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-font-kerning: 12.0pt; mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha: 100.0%; mso-style-textfill-fill-color: black; mso-style-textfill-fill-themecolor: text1; mso-style-textfill-type: solid;"><br /></span></p><p style="direction: ltr; language: en-US; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-break-override: none; punctuation-wrap: hanging; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Century Gothic"; font-size: 14pt; language: en-US; mso-ascii-font-family: "Century Gothic"; mso-bidi-font-family: +mn-cs; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-color-index: 1; mso-fareast-font-family: +mn-ea; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-font-kerning: 12.0pt; mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha: 100.0%; mso-style-textfill-fill-color: black; mso-style-textfill-fill-themecolor: text1; mso-style-textfill-type: solid;">We
started working on our division and found that half of 39 was 19.5 inches. So we used the measuring tape to measure 19.5 inches and mark it on the number line, then the magic occurred.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I asked if using that 19.5-inch length of
measuring tape would 'fit" in the other half of the number line.</span></p><p style="direction: ltr; language: en-US; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-break-override: none; punctuation-wrap: hanging; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Century Gothic"; font-size: 14pt; language: en-US; mso-ascii-font-family: "Century Gothic"; mso-bidi-font-family: +mn-cs; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-color-index: 1; mso-fareast-font-family: +mn-ea; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-fareast; mso-font-kerning: 12.0pt; mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha: 100.0%; mso-style-textfill-fill-color: black; mso-style-textfill-fill-themecolor: text1; mso-style-textfill-type: solid;"><br /></span></p><p style="direction: ltr; language: en-US; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-break-override: none; punctuation-wrap: hanging; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;"></p><p style="direction: ltr; language: en-US; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; mso-line-break-override: none; punctuation-wrap: hanging; text-align: left; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;">

their spatial reasoning was not great, most said 'no' because it was too long or short. However, the students were surprised when I put the left end of the measuring tape on the 1/3 mark, and the

<div>
My friend Jen at <a href="https://smithcurriculumconsulting.com/">Smith Curriculum Consulting</a> has some great information about Math Workshop that I thought I would share!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Do you do Math Workshop! I do. There is a lot that goes into the planning of a great workshop but it is worth it when you start to see the results!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Take a peek at what she has to say!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5d5552; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 3.5px; line-height: 1; margin: 0px 0px 30px; text-align: center; text-transform: uppercase;">
<span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">WHAT IS MATH WORKSHOP?</span></h2>
<div>
<img alt="What is Math Workshop?" height="320" src="https://smithcurriculumconsulting.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/What-is-Math-Workshop-400x600.png" width="213" /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
Math Workshop is one of the key ingredients in a Guided Math block in your math classes. Math Workshop allows for you to facilitate independent and individualized learning in a small group setting. While you are working with a small group for Guided Math, or facilitating math conferences 1-on-1, the other students in your classroom are engaged in a variety of tasks.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
These tasks that are set-up around your classroom are chosen by you to accommodate the various learning styles and needs of your students. Only you know your students and their needs, which means that only you should be choosing which activities will and won’t work for your set of students. While that may sound hard I promise you it isn’t. You know the students who need extra practice on concepts you have worked on, you know which students are ready to move on with a topic and extend their learning, you know know which students are ready to be challenged a little bit with something outside the box… yes, I promise you do!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
Math Workshop is <span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">NOT</span> the time to introduce a new concept to students that you haven’t explicitly taught. More so, this isn’t even the time to be working on activities you are currently teaching about. Math Workshop is however the time to review and spiral concepts that you have already covered. <em data-redactor-tag="em" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Yes, you heard me righ</em>t… what your students are doing in Math Workshop this week should be material that you have covered 2-3 (or even more) weeks prior.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Did that just rock your world? Are you yelling at me right now asking why?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
<span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Well let me paint you a picture…</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
Here you are in October (just randomly picking a time), you have been in school for 7 weeks and have reviewed things from the prior year, done your closely monitored Math Workshop to set our parameters in place, and you have finished your first unit of study. After the test you just took, you noticed that about 25% of your students are still struggling and need more practice. They need this practice but according to your pacing guide you don’t have the time to provide this practice, reteach and reassessment time. <span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Guess what</span><span data-redactor-tag="strong" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">… Math Workshop is perfect for this.</span>How you may ask? Take time to regroup your students if you need to, differentiate the tasks for the necessary groups that need more review and spend a little bit of time each time they get pulled to your Guided Math table in reviewing the concepts they have been practicing, seeing where they are now and performing informal observations on how they are moving along in their learning.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: "Istok Web", sans-serif; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 28px; padding: 0px;">
This just saved you from spending time whole group reviewing material that 75% of the class didn’t need. This just saved you from having to manage those who didn’t need this review and rather differentiate for those who did need a little more time to fully understand a concept.</div>
<h5 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5d5552; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 3.5px; line-height: 1; margin: 0px 0px 30px; text-align: center; text-transform: uppercase;">
SO NOW THAT WE KNOW WHAT MATH WORKSHOP IS, AS WELL AS WHAT IT ISN’T, ARE YOU READY TO MOVE ON TO HOW TO <a href="https://smithcurriculumconsulting.com/organizing-for-math-workshop/" style="background: 0px 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4e6ae8; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.1s ease-in-out;">ORGANIZE FOR MATH WORKSHOP</a>?</h5>

I hope that helped you get an idea of what Math Workshop is in the middle school classroom. Send me an email if you have any questions!</div>

I bet you have been wondering where I was?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Well. First I got moved to 8th grade algebra over the winter break.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am a bit heartbroken over this but will get over it pretty quickly. My students are relatively nice and have adapted ok. </div>

Going to a new grade level was not what scared me, having new students was not what scared me, being on a new team was not what scared me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What scared me was trying to learn a new way of thinking about algebra. I am good at algebra. I mean I passed the secondary math test...I have to be ok at it right? But being able to do things and being able to TEACH things are two completely different things. The other day I sat at my "desk" (I do not have a desk in my new room...just a kidney table) until 6:30 pm trying to find an aproachable way to teach writing a function from a table? WHAT Guess and check is not an option any more. In 6th grade it was. It was also called a "rule" not a function. My brain is swimming right now!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also I am a little ticked that I spent 48$ and all of my TPT points on 6th grade stuff on TPT during the Black Friday sale....And I got moved to 8th so those resources will just sit in my purchased folder.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Which reminds me I need to get more organized with my purchases from TPT. HOW do you do it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

but I am too lazy to move the clip arts to the folder to print them. I wonder if there is a way to link to files on my dropbox into the file so that I do not actually have to print....</div>

That is right. J asked me to marry him (actually he didnt. he just showed me the ring...and I vomited the word yes about 5 billion times...I just assumed he meant to ask.) on December 14th of 2014. We will be getting married in our favorite town Stillwater Minnesota on October 9 of 2015. I am so stinking excited. I am making my own dress so I will try to post that on here. as I do it.</div>

Speaking of my blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I love Lindsey from <a href="http://lpaulldesigns.blogspot.com/">L.Paull Designs for All </a> She totally did a stand out job of desgining this blog. A few months ago I bought the rights to www.lessonswithcoffee.com and therefore am going self hosted. As of right now she is not able to take this over to wordpress so I am going to have to forgo the cuteness! DAMN!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As of January 23rd I will be found on WWW.LESSONSWITHCOFFEE.COM I will no longer use the blogspot.com address. I am doing this for a few reasons (mostly due to legalities and me being afraid of everything.). I know that my blog and store are not HUGE but they are getting there and I would rather have the saftey of it being all mine than owned by google.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That said please start the process of updating your bloglovin. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
ALSO TO UPDATE!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I started a LessonsWithCoffee Pinterest boards (this does not reflect my link above....but I do not want to make Lindesy fix it for a week) http://www.pinterest.com/Lessonswcoffee/</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
PLEASE GO FOLLOW IT! I know that there is not much there YET, but it will get there. I was told that I should move from my personal one to a buisness one. Thank you for understanding. </div>

I am opening up slantbox for the month of February. Here is the deal. There are two DIFFERENT FORMS NOW. Please fill out the form that pertains to you if you have a blog or not. ALSO a huge change is that you will only be paired with one educator from now on. I have had WAY TO MANY FLAKES. Like countless numbers of them. The flakes make me bogged down on the things that I have to do and I BECOME A FLAKE. and that pisses me off. Each month I was getting NO LIE up to 75 emails strictly telling me that thier partner flaked out on them. In an effort to prevent this and to make re-matches easier I am not doing a double match any more. You will both send and recieve from the one educator that you are paired with. <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1w4zmfyx4mSr9JKoWVVMuYVaHRNxJXspBtjt8alHW3-8/viewform?usp=send_form">There will also be a form to fill out for flakers</a>. <--aint nobody got time for that.</div>

The theme for SLANT BOX February is rather uncreative- I Love Edcucation.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Let's face it, none of us would be where we were if we ourselves would not have become educated, gone to school, had mentors, and decided to stay in the world of edcuation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Remember your boxes MUST BE PERSONALIZED IN SOME WAY. Flipping ask your partner what kind of candy is thier favorite and throw that in there. That is the lwast you can do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This box should be about them, but also about how as teachers we love to educate. Perhaps you could throw in some items that would help them stay not sick so they can go to work, a teacher refelctoin journal, Chicken Soup for the Teacher Soul. What ever you think will be a little "Valentine" for your educator Partner. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The rest of the rules are the same.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You must sign up by the 11:59 pm on the January 30th 2014. (Central Standard Time.). I will pair you with an other Educator by Sunday the first of February. YOU MUST CONTACT YOUR MATCH WITH IN 48 HOURS. If you do not hear from you partner please fill out THIS FORM. (will also be in your matches email) You will email back and forth to get to know each other,<s>totally creep</s> read (and hopefully follow) their blogs and slightly stalk other social networks they may have. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">By the 25th(or there abouts) of the month you will create a box, for the educator you were paired to send to, and ship it off, they will l return the favor. Who likes having a birthday? I DO, I DO! This is totally like having a birthday every month! The best part is you can drop in and out whenever you want. No yearly commitments. You just make a one-month at a time decision. Do you need some encouragement this month? Join us! Spent too much your on a new swimsuit for Spring Break 2015? Come back next month! You are re-paired each month with a new person so you can feel free to join, or skip whenever you please! Listen we get it. Conferences are coming up, you're a student teacher and have finals, your in your masters class and have to finish your theses. No questions, just come back when you want!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="color: #45818e;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">BECAUSE EVEN THE BEST CLASS NEEDS THEM:<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="color: #45818e;">RULES</span></b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>1) </b>Packages must have a $15 value. This does not mean you NEED to spend 15$, It just needs to value this. Use your judgment, but if you want to spend more, feel free!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>2)</b> Please do not stray from the theme of the month. Get creative! I know you have a Pinterest, get on it and use it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>3)</b> Include a letter to say "hi!" This letter could include support, encouragement or congratulations! This is why you need to get to know your partners! Make an effort to know them through their blogs and social media. THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL! It is awesome-sauce getting gifts, but that letter will last forever!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>4) </b>Your box must include one item that is handmade, this could be the card you write rule 3 on. It must also include 5+ items per box. Who wants a boring box? Again, we are educators; we are creative and inspired and can turn a toilet paper tube into something awesome. Do it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>5) </b>Your box may not include TPT gift certificates or access to any items from your store that count towards your 10$ value. Not to be ugly on the topic but this is not an<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"> advertisement arena for your businesses...just a way to get to know other educators in a positive supportive way with out the guilt of having to purchase something. That being said, you can create an item that you feel your partner might like- the time and effort putting it together for them would count towards your 10$ value. </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>6) </b>Once you received your box you will post (link up on blogs) or # on social media. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Preferably the more the better. We will use the # SLANTBOXES. <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/Lessonswcoffee/slant-box-an-education-appreciation-pen-pal-progra/">I ALSO HAVE A NEW PINTERST BOARD THAT YOU CAN PIN TO IF YOU CHOOSE</a>. You will all be invited to pin based off of the email you sign up with. If you would like a different email please ask me IN PINTERSEST<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>7) </b>US residents you are totally in. International friends, I do my best. I cannot make promises that there will be enough interest from your country. (Therefore you might want to tell others!!!!!) Just fill out the form like everyone else and I will try to get you matched up. If you are ok sending internationally I always have friends that are willing to do that. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>8) </b>If you do not have a blog that is ok. But I do ask that you post on FaceBook or Instagram<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>9) </b>I tell my students all the time I am not their mothers. Therefore, where I hope that no one flakes, and packages do not get lost in the mail I am by no means responsible after I send out the names of the senders/sendees. I highly recommend tracking your packages and sending your partner the tracking number. Along with package tracking I as cute as some of those bubble wraps are, get a "if it fits it ships" flat rate box. You will thank me when your package only costs 5$ to ship rather than 15$ due to weight. On that note, if you do not send a box, you will no longer be invited to participate, and if you feel as though your partner is being a flake please let me know <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1w4zmfyx4mSr9JKoWVVMuYVaHRNxJXspBtjt8alHW3-8/viewform?usp=send_form">THROUGH THIS FORM!</a> I will try to work something out.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>10) </b>Give yourself a hug and have some fun!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
OK. I think I have "talked" for long enough. </div>

Gather your materials. I have two porcelain mugs I got for $2.99 at Target, I have OIL BASED PAINT MARKERS, washi tape, a pencil and my printed out designs. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
The markers MUST be OIL BASED. You can not use regular Sharpie markers and expect them to stay on. You can see I used a few different brands. The Sharpie is the smoothest but these worked.</div>

Flip it right side again and use the washi tape to tape it onto your cup. I like the washi tape because it leaves ABSOLUTELY no residue.</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It has been forever since I have blogged. I have been reflecting on my December, and the many changes that are heading my way and I wanted to let you in on a little update.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will be changing a few things around here. Nothing Huge but yes...change.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First. I got moved (yes mid year) from 6t grade to 8th grade. Friday December 19th was the last day with my 6th graders, the last day in room 2608, and the last day on team Indianna. Starting tomorrow, I will be the third 8th grade algebra teacher. I have new students (and more of them), a new classroom (a little bit bigger but still tiny), a new team (I am actually on both team Minnesota and team Wisconsin), new curriculum, and finally, new stress levels.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Second.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I GOT ENGAGED YALL! So I have been spending time planning that. While it is very exciting it is also very stressful. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So here is what you might see change around here:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
-I need to take at least a month off from SLANT (I still have like three boxes I need to send out...UGH Sorry ladies...they are sitting here...I just have to get to the dang post!). I will be returning in February or March with a new twist. From now on you will only be paired with one teacher. I have WAY too many flakers. I think by matching you up with one person you can better get to know them, and I do not have to worry so much about the flakes. I will also be doing a google form to report flakers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
-I will be bringing my blog over to WP and be compltely self hosted. Please update your bloglovin to www.lessonswithcoffee.com and you will be in the loop for the transition.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
-You might start seeing a lot more "lifestyle" posts. I have something called a Class Pass (www.classpass.com) and have been asked to document my classes and what not. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
-On the blogging note. I really want to focus on my TPT store. I have teamed up with some pretty rockstar (I am really star struck) secondary sellers, together we are going to do some hops, and help promote. I am going to try to get one product out a week. That being said, some of it will be 8th grade, some will be 6th grade and some will be 7th grade.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Other than that I hope everyone had a lovely holiday season.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here is to 2015!</div>
<div>
Cheers,</div>

HI!</div>
<div class="bloggerplus_text_section" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="bloggerplus_text_section" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am actually Blogging! That is crazy.</div>
<div class="bloggerplus_text_section" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="bloggerplus_text_section" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are getting prepared for a huge sale on TPT and So I thought I would let you know a little more in detail about one of my newest products.</div>
<div class="bloggerplus_text_section" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzxXqtCcmc9xkNrkAYPK3CHhhZ4zu9w89g4uAAyctfJ5HiBxqbdBL2izIJNJHs-OinptPq3vzTQyxTBjNgS2q5BpLKGgro_6qyWuD8MMKJHMsV99NA7eEciI6l6FnLmwAXlCIumICaX20/s1600/MandM+Mathcover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzxXqtCcmc9xkNrkAYPK3CHhhZ4zu9w89g4uAAyctfJ5HiBxqbdBL2izIJNJHs-OinptPq3vzTQyxTBjNgS2q5BpLKGgro_6qyWuD8MMKJHMsV99NA7eEciI6l6FnLmwAXlCIumICaX20/s1600/MandM+Mathcover.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My students LOVED this activity. I went to the store and bought "Fun Sized" bags of a very popular brand name candy coated chocolate candy. (If you look at the pictures you can probably figure out what it is :)) I also bought a bag of the "Mini" version of this particular candy! Then I snagged a box of Dixie cups. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The idea of this activity is that students are to find the fraction/decimal/percent of each color in the bag of "Fun Sized" and the fraction/decimal/percent of the "Mini" versions.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkF4dgZeXNMjWPBgPMiILmsO8Bruzn1B3-dULejFPr784a5j1cS0tdmzXlPAoGGe6MSl_m5Si0LtieD_ZajZB12plCdjztAs_IkS5Ek8-4l_3ZZK1pHf8gEue6YD5-dNqhHMD4N5QVbpQ/s1600/MandM+Math+front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkF4dgZeXNMjWPBgPMiILmsO8Bruzn1B3-dULejFPr784a5j1cS0tdmzXlPAoGGe6MSl_m5Si0LtieD_ZajZB12plCdjztAs_IkS5Ek8-4l_3ZZK1pHf8gEue6YD5-dNqhHMD4N5QVbpQ/s1600/MandM+Math+front.jpg" height="150" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
THEN. Here is the kicker...they are to compare them to one another! OH ingenious. Many of my students were really confused on comparing .25 to 1/4. Having the visuals of the candies helped them to grasp this concept!!! Score!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Students were engaged the entire time (Let's be honest... who doesn't love to do math when there is candy involved?)</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I then, for homework, sent home the worksheet and they were to fill out back reflection questions and create a pie chart (this helped reinforce percents)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Over all my students enjoyed this activity, it reinforced a hard concept, candy was eaten, and math was done!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I say that is a win!</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">The Winter theme and detailed rules for the exchange can be found </span><a href="http://lessonswithcoffee.blogspot.com/2014/11/winter-slantbox-exchange-sign-ups-are.html" style="color: #1e1e6e; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">HERE</a><span style="line-height: 27px;">. Please read this blog entry THOROUGHLY before you email me with any questions. Matches are found in a link at the end of this post. (I have also emailed you the link to the email you signed up with.)</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<u><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">Instructions now that you are paired!</span><o:p></o:p></span></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1) Below you will find a link to a Google Doc where I have created all of your matches. Please download the file before asking questions about it. Here are some things to know about the Google Doc:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">There are 3 tabs along the bottom.</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 30.7999992370605px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">The first is a list of all of the participants in alphabetical order by email. Like I said in the email. You are divided into bloggers and non-bloggers. As months go on you are more than welcome to switch groups, just let me know by indicating that you now have a blog on the next sign up!</span></span></li>
<li style="line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">The next two are the matches based on blog ownership or not. You need to find BOTH of your matches</span></li>
<ul style="line-height: 1.4; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who you are sending to: Look for your email in the first column (It is alphabetical) and the educator you are sending to is to the right of your email.</span></li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who is sending to you: Find your email in the third column and the educator who is sending to you is to the right of your email.</span> </span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px;"><br style="line-height: 27px;" /></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px;"></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) Once you know the emails of your partners, go back to the participant page. Search for their emails (again alphabetically) you will also find their first name, email, blog URL (if applicable), and anything else that seamed important. This is how you know who to address your email too, and where to start getting to know your partner is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">3) You have until this <b>FRIDAY the 21st, </b>2014 (10.8.14), 11:59pm CST to contact both of your partners.

Please do not wait around until someone contacts you. Be proactive. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">4. RESPOND BACK TO YOUR PARTNER! Hey I have no idea if you OPENED an email and read it....If you do not respond back to your partner, I will count you as no longer participating and BOTH of your partners will be rematched. You MIGHT be able to participate still, but it is unlikely this month. NO EXCEPTIONS. <---I have spent way to many hours rematching people. </span><span style="line-height: 27px;"> </span><b style="line-height: 27px;">(<span style="color: #76a5af;">SEND EMAILS TO BOTH OF YOUR PARTNERS, or RESPOND TO THE EMAIL YOUR PARTNERS HAVE SENT TO YOU!!!</span>). </b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">4) If you try to contact your partners but get no response, please respond to my original email by 11:59pm CST on Saturday the 22nd and I will try to work something out with a new pairing. <b> I will start doing re-matches Sunday the 23rd. NO EXCEPTIONS. Understand if you do not follow rules, and do not tell me on SATURDAY that you have not heard from anyone, there is nothing I can do. I WANT TO HAVE A HOLIDAY TOO. </b>Please understand that I cannot be responsible for everyone’s actions so be responsible for you own.

<span style="font-family: inherit;">5) Please follow this month's theme for your partner's box. Do not make up your own theme or send your partner a crazy box that has nothing to do with them.

Hi friends,<br />
<br />
I know you have been waited with baited breath for this to get opened up. Sorry for my delay. I think that sometimes I should just have a "planned" post to do it....Kidding...because I still have to do the matches.<br />
<br />
i am doing a November/December month swap this month. Rather than sending the 25th like we normally do I am ogoing to say that boxes need to go out:<br />
<br />
DECEMBER 15TH!<br />
<br />
Try to get your boxes out before the christain holidays start. I only say this because shipping get's crazy much latter than that.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So here we go. Yes sign ups have opened. I will be closing them on NOVEMBER12th. Yes that is ony 5 days for sign ups.<br />
<br />
IF YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE PLESE DO NOT FLAKE OUT. THINK ABOUT YOUR HOLIDAY SCHEDULE AND DECIDE IF YOU CAN ACTUALLY PARTICIPATE OR IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE A DUD PARTNER PLEASE. I have started to have more and more emails from people telling me that their partners are not talking to them. Don't be that person.<br />
<br />
K thanks.<br />
<br />
<br />
I will be making matches on the weekend of the 14-15. You will have until Wednesday October 8th to let me know that you have responded to BOTH, YES BOTH of your partners. I will do re-matches on that next weekend (sometime...I have a lot personally going on that weekend.)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And the theme is...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;">12 Days of Teaching.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
Ladies and Gentlemen have fun with this. This is not nessessaraly a "Holiday" Theme. What this is is exactly that. 12 gifts of teaching.<br />
<br />
I thought it would be cute...I figure most SLANTboxes usually have "about" 8-15 items in them so Why not make it 12 even and go with the song...<br />
<br />
Because you have told me you like them...here is my example box<br />
12- Mr. Sketch Markers<br />
11- Mini Candy bars<br />
10- Nail stickers<br />
9 - Rubber stamps<br />
8 - mini erasers<br />
7 - turtles (because I like turtles)<br />
6 - Super cute file folders<br />
5 - Handmade book marks<br />
4 - Expo Markers<br />
3 - Packs of stickers<br />
2 - Post it note packs<br />
1-Greeting card with a personalized note</div>
<div>
<div>
There you have it. </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Again Just to re-iterate.</div>

LIstening. I am actually not listening to anything but my thoughts and the wind blow the thousands of leaves around our yard. Fall has hit us like a right sucker punch.

Thinking. I am knee deep in a unit on converting rational numbers. Fractions really suck. Actually I love them. But they really suck for kids. My hart is breaking as they are in 6th grade and I really am struggling thinking of yeat a 67th way of describing fractions to 11 year olds so they can manipulate and solve problems with them. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Even good math students enter my room with a misunderstanding of place value. I honestly have still not found out what ALL the misconseptions are. Often times I find that the littlest explaination is all they need.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
"hey the numbers to the right of the decimal represent the parts, to the left you will find the whole"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Sometimes students need for it to connect to thier own understanding of the place values...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
"Hey, having $0.34 is a lot different than having $3.40 right?"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Students may be able to correctly name the place-value columns, but they often do not understand the significance the name, the value or the operation that is done to get to that value. For-example, they can not give amathematical explanatino fo why regrouping works....or why we "add the zero" when multiplying larger numbers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Unfortunently with the MANY standards we are all faced with, when I start talking about conversions of rational numbers, or manipulating them...I can not spend a whole lot of time "going back" to a 2-4th grade standard. I wish that I could but in my state...if you are in 6th grade, you are taught 6th grade standards. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think the best way to go about doing "grade level content" while still trying to get a concrete understanding of placevalue is to provide them with , hands-on experiences with the concept of place value and provide them the opportuinity to express the concepts at grade level. In the process the difference between the digit and number are clarified and then number snese is enhanced. I choose enhanced because even as a math teacher I am not sure I fully have a supurb understanding of the topic myself. I know lots of "tricks" to help me but sometimes the actual math behind it is still alittle "fuzzy."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Becuase my students typically have the same fuzzy notions of place value and it's role in conversion. One reason may be because they rarely receive a mathematical explaination. I am in no way saying that students are not getting good educations in lower grades, I am saying that we as a society are pushing kids too much too early.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Many times the explanatinos may be chock full of numbers and theory yet still have no connection to the way numbers work. A great example of this is the standard method for converting a decimal to a percent and to a fraction: just move the decimal place two digitis to the left or the right! The method is nothing but a trick, and our children learn to mistake "tricks" for understanding "math."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Students need help in constructing mathematical explanations.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

Here is a great activity that is hands on that allows for students to see the representations of the numbers, the importance of place value and what the dang difference between 2.3 and .23 is!</div>

I will explain each peice. First I have my students practice with the place value mat pg, one. This mat looks similar to some others that you might have seen in earlier grades. However we count a flat as a ONE rather than a 100, a long as a TENTHS and a unit as a HUNDREDTHS. This can be confusing to some students so make sure you have a converstaion with them about the flat being a decimal square and not a flat, it now becomes a ONE because 100 hundredths are there. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Spend some tme for about 7-12 minutes just practicing making different decimals with the place value mat. I give them some decimals like thirty-two hundredths, or one and sixty-nine hundredths. or two hundredths.</div>

After students look as though they have a firm grasp on how to use the manipulatives I have them open up the packet of explorations and start using the base ten blocks to build the different fractions decimals and percents.</div>

We left at about 2 pm on Friday night. I was freaking out that I forgot something...Turns out I did. The wood for the Pencil Mini Glyph we did. So we stopped at Jo-Ann Fabrics on the way out...which was good because Kirsten forgot her favorite things! Oops.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then we were on the road again. We got into Shaumburg IL about 10:30 with all the one lane traffic that there was. We were hoping to get in at about 8 but...not happening.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I WAS SO STINKING EXCITED TO MEET LINDSEY! Like for real yall. She is just as nice in person as she seams. I can not belive that I am lucky enough to call her not just a bloggy friend but also a real friend. Ture story. We text a lot.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We ended up staying up really late...like 1 am talking, prepping gift bags, and watching a wedding dress show on TLC and the Duggers. Lindsey is getting married this summer and my friend Kirsten just got married this past June. I am happy that the two of them hit it off! Lindsey and I made one of the three gift bags that folks got. Inside of it was a custom glitter mug that I made, a note pad, pencil and a sweet little packet of freebies that were graciously donated to us. </div>

The name tags were graciously created by Kelsea from <a href="http://www.teachergems.com/enter-blog/mid-west-teacher-blogger-meet-up-in-chicago" target="_blank">TeacherGems</a>! So stinking cute!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Kirsten tried to cut the wood...but I bought a stupid miter that is really only for balsa wood and it was going to suck so we decided to just go to home depot and have them cut them.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I set my alarm for 7:30 to make sure I woke up and had enough time to get the wood cut. Yeah....I woke up at 5:30 am. So I went to the Home Depot, the wood got cut but did not get mitered...so I ended up buying MORE wood in the form of wood stakes, having those cut down and bought some sand paper. </div>

We went on down to Lake Shore Learning. I met up with Wendy, the store manager. Holy cow. Her store is huge, clean, and looks like an amazing place to work. Her staff was so pleasant, helpful, and excited for us. They were having another event in the morning but assured us that we were going to have enough space and time.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lindsey, Kirsten and I went to the mall to just walk around. We had to waste about 3 hours. We kept walking past these cranbery matte rain wellies. I passed these flipping shoes another 6 times that day. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We then went to get food and go get set up.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW GENEROUS LAKESHORE LEARNING WAS! I finally met Luke who had worked with me for the past few weeks getting this event set up. </div>

First of all, agian super nice...I am pretty sure that LSL has a prerequisite that you have to be REALLY REALLY nice to work there....but he was also genuine, excited and happy we were there! His wife is a kindergarden teacher (can you say Hook Up!!!!).</div>
<div>

Once we got done with the glyphs we all stood up and really interoduced ourselves and what we brought as our 5$ favorite thing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I brought wine.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hey I teach math, all day, everyday, to 11 year olds. I like wine.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once all the prizes were out on the table, Lindsey and I started drawing names like crazy.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There were so many door prizes and gifts. Lindsey and I forgot to actually put our names in the prize boxes too. So we couldn't even win anything lol. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Finally after all the prizes were given out, Luke came out and gave out some awesome Lakeshore Learning goodies.</div>

Because we had so many drop outs and adds, then drop outs then adds, it was very difficult to find a space that would accommodate 15 people, then 56, then 20, then 26, then 35 people. Please understand that while I (Jameson) tried my hardest to find a location IN Shaumburg as we had initially planned, We had to move the meet up just 15 minutes north. I am Staying in Shaumburg and willing to drive anyone with out a ride. </div>

I am very excited to announce that we are hosting our event at Lakeshore Learning in Palatine Il. What better place to host a teacher blogger event than in a teacher store! Lindsey and I have got some great donations lined up for goodie bags and fabulous door prizes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are also hosting a "Favorite Things" swap. Please bring three of your favorite teacher "things" unwrapped. These things should be less than 5$. This can be anything from post it notes, to sharpies. Flair pens, to nail polish. Vitamins to granola bars! Be creative! We will be swapping through out the event so you will go home with THREE NEW FAVORITES! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Our event is piggy backing on a pretty major event that is happening at Lakeshore Learning on the same day. </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">1) Below you will find a link to a Google Doc where I have created all of your matches. Please download the file before asking questions about it. Here are some things to know about the Google Doc:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">There are 4 tabs along the bottom.</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 30.7999992370605px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">The first is a list of all of the participants in alphabetical order by email. Like I said in the email. You are divided into bloggers and non-bloggers. As months go on you are more than welcome to switch groups, just let me know by indicating that you now have a blog on the next sign up!</span></span></li>
<li style="line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">The next two are the matches based on blog ownership or not. You need to find BOTH of your matches</span></li>
<ul style="line-height: 1.4; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who you are sending to: Look for your email in the first column (It is alphabetical) and the educator you are sending to is to the right of your email.</span></li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who is sending to you: Find your email in the second column and the educator who is sending to you is to the left of your email.</span> </span></li>
</ul>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">The last tab is new. This is a list of ALL of the matches. In the blue colums you should look for your email and the person YOU ARE SENDING TO is there...the orange columns are listed first by your email but listed next to it is WHO IS SENDING TO YOU. I am not trying to say anything but apparently reading the other tabs backwards was really difficult for people. </span></li>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: inherit; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px;"><br style="line-height: 27px;" /></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 34.2222213745117px;"></span>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) Once you know the emails of your partners, go back to the participant page. Search for their emails (again alphabetically) you will also find their first name, email, blog URL (if applicable), and anything else that seamed important. This is how you know who to address your email too, and where to start getting to know your partner is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3) You have until this <b>WEDNESDAY the 8th, </b>2014 (10.8.14), 11:59pm CST to contact both of your partners. It is your responsibility to get in contact with <b><u>both of them</u></b>. This means the person you are sending to AND the person that is sending to you. Please do not wait around until someone contacts you. Be proactive. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">4. RESPOND BACK TO YOUR PARTNER! Hey I have no idea if you OPENED an email and read it....If you do not respond back to your partner, I will count you as no longer participating and BOTH of your partners will be rematched. You MIGHT be able to participate still, but it is unlikely this month. NO EXCEPTIONS. <---I have spent way to many hours rematching people. </span><span style="line-height: 27px;"> </span><b style="line-height: 27px;">(<span style="color: #76a5af;">SEND EMAILS TO BOTH OF YOUR PARTNERS, or RESPOND TO THE EMAIL YOUR PARTNERS HAVE SENT TO YOU!!!</span>). </b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Schoolbell; font-size: 22.2222232818604px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">4) If you try to contact your partners but get no response, please respond to my original email by 11:59pm CST on Thursday the 9th and I will try to work something out with a new pairing. <b> I will start doing re-matches Friday October 10th. NO EXCEPTIONS. Understand if you do not follow rules, and do not tell me on WEDNESDAY that you have not heard from anyone, there is nothing I can do. </b>Please understand that I cannot be responsible for everyone’s actions so be responsible for you own. I have had to in the past be doing re-matches well into the month. IF you email me saying you have not heard from your partner AFTER the times in this email I will refer you to this blog post.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">5) Please follow this month's theme for your partner's box. Do not make up your own theme or send your partner a crazy box that has nothing to do with them. I know sometimes themes are hard to follow, but you can do it. I know you can. You are an educator. You could figure out a way to make The Lorax into a PE unit if you could. I HAVE HAD MANY PARTICIPANTS EMAIL ME SAYING THEY ARE GETTING SKIMPY BOXES!!! LAME! I would rather it be late and good, than on time and hastily thrown together. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">6) Get to know your partners and don't forget to send your<b> September Boxes around the 25th of October. </b> We still have some people sending out August boxes (myself included). That needs to be done so people do not tattle on you and call you a flake!!!!! If you have not sent your box yet PLEASE at least email your friend and tell them you are running late. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">7) Use #SLANTboxes, #SLANTBOXexchange and/or #SLANTbox when you tweet, instagram or FaceBook so everyone can see the boxes you receive.

So here it goes! Week FIVE. I am already having a desperate need for our MEA break. FIRST OF ALL because we are doing a Midwest Blogger Meet-up. I am trying to nail down the location as we speak...one of the reasons that I have not posted in a while. With that, school, LWCcreates and OH having a life....I got caught up.<br />
<br />
This week we are done with our instruction of the main concepts behind LCM, GCF and Factor Trees (OK actually I taught factor trees on Monday...we are POST testing on Friday so this week is a lot<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Monday-Factor Trees</li>
<li>Tuesday -Choiceboard/Flex Group</li>
<li>Wednesday-Choice Board/ Flex Groups</li>
<li>Thrusday - Choice Board/Flexgroup</li>
<li>Friday - POST learning quiz</li>
</ul>
<div>
As a team we have decided if we do not have 80% of our learners at proficient or exceeding we are going to spend another week with practicing and retest on Next Friday. Part of me wants this as I am super tired and I just want to freshen up my choices and not really have to plan next week.....Is that bad?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
I have not heard anything about my social studies class yet...but I will update you as soon as I know. My homeroom class is starting a novel study of the book Wonder! I am so excited to bring some ELA to my life you have no IDEA! I am going to post those posts (I only teach that every other day) in separate posts, starting Friday.<br />
<br />
Here we go...Lesson Plans MATH!<br />

We have a new principal this year. (Again...third in three years) and he is really into the idea of a task/choice board in our math classrooms. I am still trying to figure out how to make this work in my 45 minute period...so bare with me as I make adjustments and experiment with a workshop model! I would love to have any help that you can give me in the way of this as well.<br />
<br />
Here is a picture of my choice-board and the area that I house everything in. <br />

I used her free template. What I did differently is a differentiated the choices that start from a remember in Choice One and go to a Create in Choice Nine. So far my kids are really doing a great job of picking choices that are at their level of understanding. THEY LOVE The stinking partner games and are mad at me that I have more than one game...but they can only play games for one choice.</div>

Today we talked about Factor Trees and how to use them to find GCF.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I broke away from my lesson plans (like we all do.) and actually had students use small squares of paper to identify the prime numbers (Tomorrow I will post some pictures of our ISN for this unit, and include links to some of the foldables I made.) I cut squares of 5 different colors of construction paper. We defined PRIME and listed the first five by glueing five different colored squares down and wrote 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 on the top of those squares. We then did a factor tree for a number and when we got to a prime number we put the square down to let ourseleves know we could stop. We then did a second one and compared the prime factorization to get a GCF. </div>

Kids were very angry at me that I did not show them this "short cut" before and we did rainbows. I explained to them that just like driving in a car...I have to know how to get to where I am going first before I can start to learn the short cuts home.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I then asked the kids to fist-four their learning and we worked on some activities.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
1: These students did a finding factors activity book by <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Flapjack-Educational-Resources" target="_blank">FlapJack Education Resource</a>s:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This was really helpful for my students who are still struggling with identifying factors of a larger number</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
2: My students in this group came and sat with me. We really focused on extending the lesson. I grabbed some bingo daubers from the dollar store. We took turns drawing numbers from a baggie(these numbers actually:) from <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Debbie-Sudduth-Designs" target="_blank">Debbie Suduth Designs</a> - freebie!!!) and did the factor trees but we got to put bingo daubs on the primes. We talked about using our notes to help us remember which numbers are prime. </div>

I adapted this for my high learners by giving them larger numbers to work with. This activity is great but it only went to 56 for a target number to factor. I added a some more difficult numbers like 122 and 396 for my high flyers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I then had them compare with a friend to find the GCF.</div>

This is my first day of the Choice board. It is expected that in three days you get three Choices done, even if I meet with you as a FLEX group. My low group I assigned one task to, although most of the other kids did that task too. :) Here is how I broke down my choices</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. Vocabulary Sort - I made this quick activity for students to practice their vocabulary words and to practice the difference between what answers to a GCF problem and what answers to a LCM problem look like. This was probably the easiest of all of the choices and was the one that I assigned my lowest group to complete. Many of my others Students completed this activity though as well. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is perfect for fall and a GREAT independent activity. There are the little trees with the numbers on them, then the red apples have the factor trees that match, and the yellow apples have the prime factorization with the exponents! SO GOOD. </div>

7.Building Better Responses. We have been working really hard at our problem solving in my class. Our district uses the Five Easy Steps.

We have done enough of them in class that students are capable of doing them independently or with a partner. I just put a back to back (indy/partner) in the drawer with some higher order word problems and they go for it. for the word problems I am using my girl<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Greatest-Common-Factor-Task-Cards-and-Recording-Sheets-CCS-6NS4-337936" target="_blank"> Kate over at To The Square Inch.</a></div>

9. CREATE- This is my favorite station and I love seeing what the kids come up with. Basically, my students are drawing a number (same numbers from above) and they are making a poster with the factors, the multiples, their definitions of factors and multiples. <a href="http://youngteacherlove.blogspot.com/2013/03/factors-and-multiples.html" target="_blank">I found this lesson on Kristine Nannini's Blog Young Teacher Love.</a></div>

We followed the same format from Tuesday. I pulled a flex group and did an activity with students for thinking about how to list factors. <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Hands-On-Factors-with-Unifix-Cubes-1477183" target="_blank">I used this worksheet that you can find for free on TPT.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://datax.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Hands-On-Factors-with-Unifix-Cubes-1477183-1412261721/original-1477183-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://datax.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Hands-On-Factors-with-Unifix-Cubes-1477183-1412261721/original-1477183-1.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is how I used this work sheet. I handed students 20 unifix cubes of the same color. I asked them to take a stack of 8 and with out looking at other students, split them into equal groups.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We took a look and noticed that some of us had made 4 groups of 2 and some made 2 groups of 4. We talked about how you could also have one group of 8 and 8 groups of 1. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I told students to grab their other 12. I asked them to with the 12 split them into equal groups. we noticed that there was more ways of doing this. We then took turns reading the sentence prompts at the top of the worksheet that I laminated and used dry erase markers on it. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We each wrote it in our sentence starters. Then I asked students to see if they could make all the possible equal groups starting with one.</div>

SO good. I used integer tiles though...because they were right there and I was (again) lazy. Students thought it was funny that I was talking all day about peas and carrots. </div>

Also today I conferenced with EACH of my students in regards to an exit slip they did yesterday with ONE question of LCM and ONE question of GCF. It was a pretty good indication of how they would do on the test so I made sure to hit each student. We also went over the study guide and I gave them an ORDER UP! activity by <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-Up-Factors-and-Multiples-687802" target="_blank">Mr. Hughes</a> to take home and try for a study guide.</div>

At the Beginning of the summer I had a request to open the sign up window longer. This resulted in people needing to drop out, people forgetting that they signed up, and over all a pain in my but for re-matches. Last month I had at the beginning of rematching 27 people who needed a partner to send them a box, but only 4 people who needed a partner to send to. I am not sure if shortening the window for sign ups will help but I think it will at least drop the number of people who forget and need to drop out. <script>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So here we go. Yes sign ups have opened. I will be closing them on October 4th so that I can make matches on the 5th. You will have until Wednesday October 8th to let me know that you have responded to BOTH, YES BOTH of your partners. I will do re-matches on that next weekend (sometime...I have a lot personally going on that weekend.)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So when trying to come up with a theme (AS I SIT HERE WITH A PUMPKIN SPICE LATE) I have decided to do something relating to fall. Then I had an Idea....One of my favorite parts about the online teacher world is how it acts more as a PLC than ANY one of my PLC's I have ever been on. I find more inspiration, ideas, and help from you all. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is why I am proudly introducing the theme for OCTOBER....</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-large;">FALL INTO SUCCESS IN THE CLASSROOM.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
Ok This month, I am asking you to be very specific on a grade range and subject area that you are most interested in getting resources for. I am going to do my dangdest to make sure you are partnered up with someone that is in that same realm. My secondary folks....This might take some wiggling and I hope that you still participate. I know that I have a TON of resources that are cross Curriculum! Like writing assignments in math class...yes that is right!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here is what my thought for an awesome box this month should look like:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>A personalized item for their classroom - notecards with the teachers name on it, a picture frame, a binder with new cover in it for lesson plans, a sign anything that has to do with THEIR classroom...not yours. </li>
<li>One professional book that YOU COULD NOT LIVE WITH OUT. There are so many. See if your partner has read it yet before you pick that one though. (Shop used...Amazon has amazing prices on used professional books.</li>
<li>A list of tricks for a particular topic. Say your partner is just getting into ipads in the classroom but you have had them for a year now...Give them a nice list of some tricks that you wish you would have known. (For me....Only have students plug in the iPads if the battery is less than 80%. They take too long at the station trying to shove the charger in...I would rather it just get put away and charged the next time.) This does not have to be anything fancy it is just thoughtful.</li>
<li>Now here is where I think the best part comes. Fully put together in a station, a packet, or a binder one of your favorite resources that you use in your classroom. Now. I am going to throw it out here that this does not need to be something that you made everything yourself. It could be a product that you created and love...but not everyone creates products. Some people live on your creations...so I hope that other sellers are ok with this. But you do have to have this puppy so ready to go for your partner that literally the only thing they need to do is walk into their classroom with it. I would say though, do not take someones worksheet and copy it and send it in an envelope. Here is how ideally I would like to see this happen (as a seller on TPT I would be totally ok with someone doing this):</li>
<ul>
<li>Let's say someone really LOVES my<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Long-Division-Graphic-Organizer-and-Task-Cards-1232498" target="_blank"> long division graphic organizer </a>that I have on my tpt. </li>
<li>this person would print out on nice paper, in color all of the pieces, laminate and cut out the cards.</li>
<li>This person would then put in a nice plastic envelope or someway that the teacher that is receiving this resource could immediately implement into their classroom if necessary. </li>
<ul>
<li>WHAT THIS IS NOT:</li>
<li>sharing the file with the person</li>
<li>sending a stack of black and white copies</li>
<li>stealing</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<li>Finally find a few little supplies that you could not live with out. For me it would be binder clips, Mr. Sketch markers for anchor charts, and Pipsqueeks for my teacher ISN's and maybe some k-cups for my coffee.....I have weaknesses)</li>
<li>Do not forget your card!</li>
</ul>
<div>
There you have it. </div>
</div>
<div>

<div>
Again Just to re-iterate.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This is one of my favorite units. Last year we started the year with an algebra strand and found out quickly that our students are not successful at manipulating fractions and decimals yet...so how can we expect them to be able to solve for them yet?</div>
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This year we decided to spend a lot more time on Number and operations (multiples, factors, equivalencies between F, D, P, multiplying/dividing fractions and decimals, and word problems.) THEN we are going to go into the algebra strand. We figured we needed to really make sure they are good with Number and Operations before we move on...or they are going to be incredibly unsuccessful in 7th grade pre-algebra.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here is a breakdown of what we are doing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Pre-Quiz. This is our final pre-quiz till almost December. They will have one more in 1st semester! We thought about overloading our kids with pre-quizes at the beginning of the year and what did pre-tests do for our students. We used pre-quizes to teach students the expectations during quizes and tests. We also used them to pull ENORMOUS amounts of data on them. Before I even start my students with multiples and factors I already know what they know about F->D->P and multiplying and Dividing fractions. This is HUGE for me. In our district we have to give students the exact same post-quiz as we gave them in their pre-quiz (with some expectations...if we realize there is a typo, or error, we can decide if we are going to change something from multiple choice to non choice...but the questions have to remain the same).</div>

What is really interesting this year is that I believe my students know more about fractions than decimals...Last year it was that they knew more abut decimals. </div>

I am finishing up the Ipad Boot camp. Today is the day that they will get their student log in for Google Documents, MOBY MAX. They will learn how to email me a picture of their work using both the quick email (a generic gmail address that I have attached to the mail feature of the ipads....Ms.Ivey2608@gmail.com) Because I have a class set of ipads and 7 classes students have to log in and log out of their SPPS APPS account (google drive) this is actually a time consuming step. IF students did not use the ipads for learning (maybe they played a game or something) I am asking that they send me a picture of what they did that day....these students can use the quick send from the generic email to their folder on ms.ivey2608@gmail.com's google drive and picassa~</div>

I am going to be using one of my own foldable for this mini lesson. <br />
<br />
(insert picture here...) Ok I want to post it so you can get it if you want...but I have to make a cover page and credits page....UGH. I will post this tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Then we are going to self assess and split into groups. I do many types of formative assessment in my class but two of them I use for students to self assess.<br />
<br />
The first is a stop light. <br />

From <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Stoplight-Student-Assessment-CardsPosters-Classroom-11-x-17-Included-479165" target="_blank">MR MATH COACH</a> on TPT. Did I mention it was a freebie?<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I have students just make a small mark on their paper by the last example we did. I then split them into groups based on this. MOST of the time they are right where they need to be...Sometimes I pull others. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The second resource I use for formative assessment is a fist to four. I also have this made into a large poster and have it up in my room. </div>

I always joke around with "fist" and say "Fist: you were sleeping and have no idea what is going on" I like this because that allows for students to never be at the bottom of the "learning scale" This is especially helpful for my students who should be at a 1 but will say a 2 because they do not want to be in the low group. At least by having a fist group...they are not in "last place." This is also a freebie and I got it from a seller called <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Marzano-Scale-Fist-to-Four-Student-Feedback-Poster-and-Bookmarks-448069" target="_blank">Kathy O</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
OK. Today we are using the stop light. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The three activities that go along with each "color" are:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">Red:</span> This is my low group. each day I have an idea of who should be in this group for each class...Sometimes I am surprised when a student tells me they need to be in the red group...I will always let them start there...but if I notice that they are there just for the "Easy work" I move them up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The activity that these students are going to work on is:</div>

This is a super cute little Freebie by <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Pop-Roll-a-math-game-for-multiples-1180968" target="_blank">O-H so Blessed.</a> Ok. You get to roll dice, and color! What is more fun in the eyes of a 6th grader?</div>

YELLOW and GREEN. My middle and high students are going to practice with two different products in the same product...Does that even make sense?</div>

This is an AWESOME product that I found last year! It is by<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Least-Common-Multiple-PACKET-275878" target="_blank"> LIttle Miss Whimsical</a> and it is soooo good. At $2.00 the product is totally worth it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This product is so great because the poke cards are awesome for kids that do not need to walk through the steps one at a time...That is what the task cards are for!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I will have my Yellow groups work together to solve the task cards and my green group use the poke cards!</div>

Today we are focusing on Factor Trees. I am only spending one day on this and involving it in the review days because it is not a "high priority" benchmark for our district....However while I was proctoring our state standards I noticed that there were a few questions on this...So why not. It is relatively easy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are going to just do this in our note books and circle factors. I did see this entry from Runde's Room when I was looking for resources. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
maybe I will use the shape thing instead of just circling...I do not know. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once we make our trees we are going to talk about the expressions that are formed from the prime numbers. Then split to practice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This time we are doing fist to four.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. These students are going to work together with a 100s chart and highlighted prime numbers to work through more factor trees but are going to use BINGO DAUBERS to show prime numbers!!!!</div>

3. My threes are going to work on a craftivity. This I found last year from Lovely Little Learners and it was perfect! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My students really enjoyed this last year so I am hoping that it goes just as smoothly this year with the boys. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. My fours are going to be creating a huge factor tree with a 3 digit number they are going to create by spinning a spinner! I saw a pin on Pinterest (duh) with the number 100 and I thought about how it could be pretty awesome do do one for say the number 465. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next week I have an activity where students will make factor trees then find the expression that matches the numbers they factored.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Again we will reassess as as an exit to mark our growth. </div>

It's Friday, Friday gotta get down on friday!!!! Ok Rebeca Black moment! Alright! Today we are talking about GCF.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First we are going do define factors, then we are going to use the Rainbow Method to find factors of two numbers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are going to have a discussion about what GREATEST COMMON means....then we will find the GCF this way. (next week we will use factor trees and upside down birthday cake...) I just think this is a good way to start it! </div>

That is it! Next week monday we are going to talk about using factor trees and upside down cakes for GCF, then we review for two days, teach to study and take the first Post-Learning Quiz of the year!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Later this week I will share what is on my choiceboard. My students are expected to pick 2 of the nine choices each week. The choices work their way from "remember" to create. The choice is theirs for what they pick but it must be done by the time we test. It counts as a "homework" grade since I do not really assign homework. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

I like to lay out the general design of how I want it before I start taping. Last year I had 6 rows of 5 not 5 rows of 6. I like this a little more as it is more eye catching with the diagonal rows of color. </div>

I actually made this quite a while ago...>But never got around to blogging about it.<br />
<br />
I wanted to make hall passes because I HATE WRITING OUT PASSES. We have a no pass policy at our school "unless it is an emergency." I am a believer that if it is your time (ie, I am not teaching and you are not taking a test...) and you need to go to the bathroom, who am I to stop you?<br />
<br />
So I decided to make some uber cute passes.<br />
<br />
I got my supplies...You might recognize some of them from my birthday sign. </div>

A plank, three (actually 4 but I knew I only wanted three) small planks for the passes, paint, brushes, wood cut outs, three pegs.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I painted the main plank blue when I was painting my birthday sign. I used the Martha Stewart Spray Paint Kit to make it blue in a jiffy.</div>

So here it goes! Week Three. The official second full week of school. Can you believe that I am already 9 days into school? I have a really good set of kids, I am also however supposed to start teaching Minnesota Studies (yes a social studies class) here sometime soon so eventually this post is going to be longer as I will have 4 sections of 6th grade math, one section of 6th grade Minnesota Studies! Oh goodie! I also have a Foundations class but i will not be posting lesson plans for that class. <--It is sort of like a homeroom. So for the time being...just 6th grade math!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So above are my lesson plans. Some weeks I am much more detailed, others...I just do this. We are supposed to have lesson plans that a substitute could follow. However, As you know about me...I am a writer. If I do not do these short lesson plans, then I am writing 18 page lesson plans for one week! Trust me, It happened last year. This year because I have the ipads my lessons are going to look a little more funny I guess. I would rather spend the time making the activities for the kids, than the lesson plans that sit outside my door...just saying #sorrynotsorry.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here is a breakdown of what we are doing!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRygkWAvGo28GzqH-HZnoxuYlHpVPVWJ0tT7K3k-IDhX_lFu78r" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="114" src="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRygkWAvGo28GzqH-HZnoxuYlHpVPVWJ0tT7K3k-IDhX_lFu78r" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are going to put our very first foldable into our ISNs (interactive student notebooks). Last week we set them up so that we can be successful. the first two pages have a table of contents, the third page is page one, we then go to the middle of our notebooks and that is where our Daily Math Review is. counting backwards from there 6 pages is were we do data tracking, and 12 pages from the back is our dictionary. I am very transparent about our notebooks all looking the exact same in 6th grade. They are learning how to take notes as many of them have not had to do that before.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We are going to be putting the fold up book by Mrs. B's Best</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-of-Operations-Tri-Fold-Fold-Up-327668" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Order-of-Operations-Tri-Fold-Fold-Up/original-327668-1.jpg" height="320" width="242" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really like her fold-up books because they are easy to assemble, still use listening directions, and have all of the information on them. We will also be underlining and highlighting important ideas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
We are then going to do the practice problem that I have in my lesson plans. I teach this very specifically by using colors and arrows to ONLY DO ONE STEP at a time.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am them breaking my class into four groups. I need names for them...but right now I am working on this: (I might just go to colors)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Math with my teacher - I pull a small group and make sure they really understand the concept</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Math with my partner - Students may work together to help one another...these are typically lower students but can get through the activity if they have someone to work with</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Math with my hands - This is a group of "good to go" students. They are right at grade level and can perform tasks with no help</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Math with my creativity - This is a group of HIGH students. This is typically where I have them work on error analysis and finding new processes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My math with my teacher kids are going to be working on <a href="http://missmathdork.com/" target="_blank">Miss Math Dork's</a> graphic organizer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/GERMDAS-order-of-operations-graphic-organizer-389387" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/GERMDAS-order-of-operations-graphic-organizer/original-389387-1.jpg" height="320" width="246" /></a> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and her product Leafing Through Order of Operations</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-of-Operations-Leafing-Through-a-3-tiered-activity-909651" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Leafing-Through-Order-of-Operations-a-3-tiered-activity-053945600-1380849733-1410397545/original-909651-1.jpg" height="246" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really love her products. You will be seeing a lot of her stuff from me this year! I like this activity because it makes the students really focus on one step at a time. I feel confident that if students choose a leaf, then use the graphic organizer they will be good to go on the homework activity. I have printed the graphic organizer and laminated them so they can be reused. Students will write answer on the task card sheet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I will also have my math with a partner kids work on the leaf activity but will not be using the graphic organizer and will be using the second tier of questions. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My Math with my hands kids will be working on <a href="http://4mulafun.com/" target="_blank">4mula Fun's</a> Solve and Snip Order of Operation</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-of-Operations-Solve-and-Snip-Common-Core-and-TEKS-438531" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn1.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Order-of-Operations-Solve-and-Snip-Common-Core-and-TEKS/original-438531-1.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you have not used these....I really suggest you start! They are so much fun for kids and I love the self checking aspect of them. The idea is pretty simple there are 12 questions and 12 answers. I like to have my students work in groups of 4 with two sets of partners. One set of partners works on number one while the other set is working on number 2. This way they can get all 12 questions done in the 15 minutes of application time that we get.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Finally my math with my creativity kids will be working on <a href="http://middleschoolmathaddict.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Middle School Math Addict's</a> Error Analysis activity. I should mention that this is a FREE activity!!!!! Go Get it now before she realizes that it is awesome and should charge people for it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-of-Operations-Error-Analysis-FREEBIE-723165" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn1.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Order-of-Operations-Error-Analysis-FREEBIE-068455400-1370828141/original-723165-1.jpg" height="320" width="246" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used this activity last year and it was AWESOME!!!! Students really liked it and enjoyed the writing piece that was in the end of it. I work closely with the writing teacher on my team and we sometimes will have co-assignments. Meaning if they write a page of process for me...they can count that as their page of writing in writing class that she assigns every night! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Finally students are going to have homework that will be due on Wednesday. It is a similar activity to the Solve and Snip by 4mula Fun but it is more like individual I have Who Has. It is an activity by <a href="http://educatorslife.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mr. Hughs</a>. who I found through a Facebook Page! His activity is called ORder Up!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-Up-Order-of-Operations-Set-2-No-Exponents-1222461" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/Order-Up-Order-of-Operations-Set-2-No-Exponents-1222461/original-1222461-1.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since in Minnesota our students learn order of operation in 5th grade but exponents in 6th grade I like this particular activity because it does not have exponents in it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Sadly my students are taking a pre-test on Fractions -> Decimals -> Percents. This year my team and I have redone all of our tests. We will see what happens.</div>

I am so excited for this day I can not explain in words. I get to start my kids on my brand spanking new classroom set of ipads. I have big ideas for these. We will be using them for lot's more than I thought we would be!!!! Today we are going to go over the expectations of how to use them how to walk with them, when we should have our eyes on the speaker and when it is ok to be listening with just our ears. After I get done with this post I am going to put the labels on my ipad drawers. There will be a whole other post about how I set up my classroom for these puppies!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have created a middle school math Ipad Boot Camp using a few products that I got this summer in hopes that I would be getting the class set of ipads!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The first is Teaching IN Alabama's Ipads and Math Activity</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://mcdn1.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/iPads-and-Math/original-324385-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn1.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/iPads-and-Math/original-324385-1.jpg" height="246" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which is a set of task cards with QR codes. This will be used at the end of the hour to ensure that students know how to use the QR code and can follow instructions. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also am using two products to help guide my boot camp. The boot camp is designed to make sure that students know how to email, take a picture, watch a video, open their folders on google docs and finally make a blog post and post a comment to someone else's blog post. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To do this I am using two products by two other teacher creators. The first is by <a href="https://teachercreatorstoolbox.squarespace.com/" target="_blank">Core Inspiration by Laura Santos</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/iPads-and-Tablets-Management-Tools-and-Student-Training-790733" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/iPads-and-Tablets-Management-Tools-and-Student-Training-085871200-1374770523/original-790733-1.jpg" height="320" width="246" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She has some really nice forms for students and parents to fill out before they use them. I also liked the checklist for license.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am also using Ipad 101 by <a href="http://www.sharingkindergarten.com/" target="_blank">Sharing Kindergarten</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/iPad-101-885930" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://mcdn1.teacherspayteachers.com/thumbitem/iPad-101-025215900-1379902184/original-885930-1.jpg" height="320" width="256" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While many of her things are geared toward a kinder-2nd grader...I found a lot of very helpful hints in this packet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I picked up both of these during the BTS sale!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hahahha so much for fun. I am making my students take a second pre-test. Oops. Bad Teacher. This time it is on multiplying and dividing Fractions. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was actually just asked by Jennifer from 4mulaFun if I was going to post my exams on TPT. I am not and only because they have a grading scale on them that our team has created as well as are aligned to Minnesota State Standards. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you are interested in them....please email me at Lessonswithcoffee@gmail.com and I am happy to share a pdf version with you. </div>

BTS hit me like a freight train. Also with my trip.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
ENGLAND PICTURES TO COME LATER.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I got super sick on the way home from England and have not recovered. They have me on a super crazy drug that makes me super ridiculously tired and also EVERY SINGLE JOINT IN MY BODY is aching!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of my favorite IG gals(<a href="http://www.twenty-somethingteacher.com/" target="_blank">TwentySomethingTeacher!</a>) featured me in her little blog on Friday so I thought I should actually post something NOT related to SLANT.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Teacher Fashion. I like to think of myself as a pretty stylish gal. I RARELY pay full price for things.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You can find me shopping at these stores on a regular basis:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://primpyourself.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://primpyourself.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Primp_Logo.jpg" /></a></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of my very best girlfriends that I never get to see anymore because her store has EXPLODED started this shop in a modest little location in St. Paul. To my delight she has just announced that she and her business partner (another gal I like to call a good friend) their SIXTH location in the Twin Cities. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am a southern gal through and through. My students laugh when I say the word "Orange" (I pronounce it Are-Enge), Y'all, and "Oh Shoot." This little shop is owned by a gal with a southern GA girl charm. I love the clothes and the sales are to DIE for!</div>

No surprises here. I love a good sweater and pair of jeans. I do not shop anything other than the gap sale rack. There might be the occasional thing that I buy full price...But with a coupon. I love stripes and plaid and the Gap never seems to get these wrong.</div>

I really love this shirt. NO pun intended. It rememinds me of my family in England. They always say things are lovely. I got this and the Holy Chic shirt at Old Navy buy one get one half off. I had to get mediums but they fit loose and fine. I think the pink looks nice with the mint of this rugby skirt from Gap</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">The September theme and detailed rules for the exchange can be found </span><a href="http://lessonswithcoffee.blogspot.com/2014/08/september-slantbox-sign-ups-are-now-open.html" target="_blank">HERE</a><span style="line-height: 27px;">. Please read this blog entry THOROUGHLY before you email me with any questions. Matches are found in a link at the end of this post. (I have also emailed you the link to the email you signed up with.)</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<u><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">Instructions now that you are paired!</span><o:p></o:p></span></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) Below you will find a link to a Google Doc where I have created all of your matches. Please download the file before asking questions about it. Here are some things to know about the Google Doc:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">There are 4 tabs along the bottom.</span></li>
<li style="color: #333333; line-height: 30.7999992370605px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">The first is a list of all of the participants in alphabetical order by email. Like I said in the email. You are divided into bloggers and non-bloggers. As months go on you are more than welcome to switch groups, just let me know by indicating that you now have a blog on the next sign up!</span></span></li>
<li style="color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">The next two are the matches based on blog ownership or not. You need to find BOTH of your matches</span></li>
<ul style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em;">
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who you are sending to: Look for your email in the first column (It is alphabetical) and the educator you are sending to is to the right of your email.</span></li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="text-indent: -0.25in;">To find who is sending to you: Find your email in the second column and the educator who is sending to you is to the left of your email.</span> </span></li>
</ul>
<li><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">The last tab is new. This is a list of ALL of the matches. In the blue colums you should look for your email and the person YOU ARE SENDING TO is there...the orange columns are listed first by your email but listed next to it is WHO IS SENDING TO YOU. I am not trying to say anything but apparently reading the other tabs backwards was really difficult for people. </span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px;" /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) Once you know the emails of your partners, go back to the participant page. Search for their emails (again alphabetically) you will also find their first name, email, blog URL (if applicable), and anything else that seamed important. This is how you know who to address your email too, and where to start getting to know your partner is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 30.7999992370605px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<div style="line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3) You have until this <b>Tuesday the 9th, </b>2014 (8.2.14), 11:59pm CST to contact both of your partners. It is your responsibility to get in contact with <b><u>both of them</u></b>. This means the person you are sending to AND the person that is sending to you. Please do not wait around until someone contacts you. Be proactive. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 27px;">4. RESPOND BACK TO YOUR PARTNER! Hey I have no idea if you OPENED an email and read it....If you do not respond back to your partner, I will count you as no longer participating and BOTH of your partners will be rematched. You MIGHT be able to participate still, but it is unlikely this month. NO EXCEPTIONS. <---I have spent way to many hours rematching people. </span><span style="line-height: 27px;"> </span><b style="line-height: 27px;">(<span style="color: #76a5af;">SEND EMAILS TO BOTH OF YOUR PARTNERS, or RESPOND TO THE EMAIL YOUR PARTNERS HAVE SENT TO YOU!!!</span>). </b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4) If you try to contact your partners but get no response, please respond to my original email by 11:59pm CST on Wednesday the 10th and I will try to work something out with a new pairing. <b> I will be doing re-matches THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 11th. NO EXCEPTIONS. Understand if you do not follow rules, and tell me on WEDNESDAY that you have not heard from anyone, there is nothing I can do. </b>Please understand that I cannot be responsible for everyone’s actions so be responsible for you own. I have had to in the past be doing re-matches well into the month. IF you email me saying you have not heard from your partner AFTER the times in this email I will refer you to this blog post.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">5) Please follow this month's theme for your partner's box. Do not make up your own theme or send your partner a crazy box that has nothing to do with them. I know sometimes themes are hard to follow, but you can do it. I know you can. You are an educator. You could figure out a way to make The Lorax into a PE unit if you could. I HAVE HAD MANY PARTICIPANTS EMAIL ME SAYING THEY ARE GETTING SKIMPY BOXES!!! LAME! I would rather it be late and good, than on time and hastily thrown together. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">6) Get to know your partners and don't forget to send your<b> September Boxes around the 25th of September. </b> We still have some people sending out August boxes (myself included). That needs to be done so people do not tattle on you and call you a flake!!!!! If you have not sent your box yet PLEASE at least email your friend and tell them you are running late. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">7) Use #SLANTboxes, #SLANTBOXexchange and/or #SLANTbox when you tweet, instagram or FaceBook so everyone can see the boxes you receive. Remember if you share a picture of the box you are sending (do not spoil the surprise! Just share pictures of the outside of your box and blur out any addresses.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">8)<b> </b>If you are a blogger, you <b>MUST</b> link up with the Slant Box reveal linky party on Lessons With Coffee at the end of the month. <b>THIS IS A RULE THAT HAS NOT BEEN FOLLOWED.</b> I love seeing them and I try to comment on them!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now that you have read everything let me know if you have any questions. Here is the link to see your matches!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I chose to write about the book </span><u style="font-family: inherit;">Multiplication is For White People</u><span style="font-family: inherit;"> by </span>Lisa<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Delpit</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://maltb010.weebly.com/uploads/2/3/8/4/23849137/3501498_orig.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://maltb010.weebly.com/uploads/2/3/8/4/23849137/3501498_orig.jpg" height="320" width="221" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> In the wake of the </span>Ferguson<span style="font-family: inherit;"> shooting I thought, for a hot second, about changing my book. After all I am a white teacher, teaching in an urban school. But then I was reminded of my <u><b><i>DUTY</i></b></u> of making sure that I point out injustices when I see them. That is THE ONE AND ONLY thing that I can do to help make sure that I am doing my part as a white person in the cause of racial inequity. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The first time I read this book, my eyes were open. The second time I read this book, I felt guilty as a white teacher. The third time I read this book, I changed the way I teach. The fourth time I read this book, I knew EVERY TEACHER IN THE WORLD SHOULD READ THIS BOOK.</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Immediate changes I made:</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">HIGH expectations for all of my students. - a C is not acceptable in my classroom. Kids know it, and work hard to do better. Sympathy does not make a good student. Quit assuming students CANT or WONT do something and "dumb it down." The Drive for excellence is real. In Fact in schools we seem to belive that people are born into three categories of talent - low, average and high. "it is our primary job to find students' "correct" category and act with diligence to ensure that they stay in it." (pg. 150). </span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /><span style="background-color: white;">How many times have educators made the mistake of deciding the fate of their students based on their limited knowledge, experience and expertise? Too many times. The message Lisa Delpit has written in this book should be heard in many communities of teachers and learners. The education leaders in our schools have a lot of work to do beginning with educating themselves not only on the pedagogy of teaching and what works for the learner, but developing their knowledge and awareness of the inclinations of those they teach. When high expectations for learning and success are not part of an educator's tool kit then often the target of their work is resigned to failure and limited success.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white;">Not push my values on others...EVER. </span>This book really taught me about values and how my values are being pushed on every child in the classroom whether they like them, believe in them, or not. I was forced to challenge my own beliefs of what mathematical success is in my classroom and what is not, change the way I format my classes and how I write tests. I needed to be the one to very specifically and transparently teach students how to study and what I mean when I say show your work. I needed to also understand that my idea of "effort" is not and never will be the same as the ideas of others. I needed to change the way that I portray my classroom so that others understand where I am coming from. </li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;">There is a moment early in MIFWP where Delpit perfectly illustrates the problem that many parents feel when interacting with their students and homework. Her daughter is beginning to play softball and the coach tells parents to work on 'softball' skills with their daughters at home. Delpit confesses a complete ignorance of the game, knowing only bits of the sport, certainly no mastery of the complex physical, mental and athleticism involved. She recognizes in that moment how parents feel when they're told to help their children with homework. Delpit writes compellingly that the problems of urban education go beyond whether the schools are public, private, or charter, run by for profit companies or union teachers: Poverty, housing uncertainty, and the lack of security at home are never discussed by policy makers who think we can test our way out of the problem. Therefore I needed to n</span>ot expect that homework is:</span></li>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">going to get done at home (and not because of laziness...)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">the end all be all application of topics covered</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">understood by parents to help the student</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">necessary at all ->in fact I no longer assign it. </span></li>
</ul>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">My judgement ended. I think as a white educator it is very hard to admit when you have judged based off of class, religion or race. ESPECIALLY when we like to think of our selves as advocators and allies. However I totally admit to doing this. I saw a kid come in with dirty clothes, and skin darker than mine and I immediately made a judgement that I would have no parental support. I heard a students parents speaking only in a language I did not understand and I assumed that her test scores would be low because of language. <--For the record both students proved me wrong. I am not trying to say that I am perfect and I dropped all judgements. I am human and I am trying</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">Ultimately this book is not a "MATH" book. The title of the book refers to a tutor student who made the comment "they made us slaves because we were dumb, right, Ms. Summers?" First of all just imagine being asked that question as a white educator. How do you respond to that. ? In the eyes of the colonists African Slaves WERE dumb, they did not speak the language, could not write, and their cultural activities were not the same. Another student asked another teacher "why you trying to teach me to multiply, Ms. L.? Black people don't multiply; black people just add and subtract. White people multiply." (pg.14). Boom. There it was, the reason I needed to read this book over and over. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So... Have I enticed you? Maybe this will...</span><br />
