Math Workplaces

One part of our math program is called Workplaces.  Workplaces are similar to centers, with students getting time for independent practice on math concepts.  We are on our third set of workplaces; each set includes eight games or activities for practice.  For example, right now kids can play "Hour or Bust," "Count and Compare 2s," or "Race You to $.50."  Please visit sometime when we are doing workplaces--it may look like controlled chaos, but there is a TON of learning happening.  The kiddos are responsible for planning which workplaces to visit each day, marking their progress on a planning worksheet, turning in the appropriate worksheets, and cleaning/caring for each workplace.
