What does planning Math involve?

1. Ensure there is integration with other subjects that way students can make connections and learn through their own style.2. It is best to know the expected outcome of the unit first, then plan the lessons to get there ('backward planning')3. Ensure understanding before moving on, look at math journal for common misunderstandings and review as a class.4. Structured three-part lesson: 'getting started', 'working on it', 'reflection/connection'5. Need to account for differentiated learning and be flexible to change the plan accordingly.

Students may start at the same spot, but may end up taking different paths.

Make math engaging and meaningful to students!
