Two Problems with Interactive Math Journals

  1. Most math journal options out there align with the Common Core Standards. There are math journal bundles on Teacher Pay Teachers that are made for the Common Core Standards but pull the corresponding standards for the Florida BEST standards. They include a list of compatible topics but that doesn’t help when standards like NSO.1.1, NSO1.2, and NSO.1.3 aren’t included since they are unique to the Florida BEST Standards. Learn more about the differences HERE.
  2. The mess and wasted time from cutting out tons of tiny little shapes. So many tiny pieces of paper that can and do get lost. Frustrated student who are either waiting on the class to hurry up cutting or feel overwhelmed they can’t keep up.

Easy to Differentiate

Every lesson follows the same format. It starts with first page of instruction and examples then moves to guided practice for page two. The following activities can be differentiated for your students based on their needs. There are matching, sorting, and find the mistake tasks.

Provide extra support by pulling a group that you notice struggles during the guided practice while assigning the matching activities to the rest of the class. If you have a group of students that need a challenge, try assign them the sorting and find the mistake activities.

Easy to use all parts of the lesson or pick and choose based of the needs of your students that day. Every lesson includes 6 parts!
