ALT A game titled "D-ice breakers." Each rolled number corresponds with an activity. 1: Describe your perfect school day. 2: If you won the lottery, what is the 1st thing you would buy? 3: What are you most excited about for this new school year? 4: If you could write a book about your life, what would the title be and why? 5: What's the best advice you were ever given? Who was it from? 6: What's your guilty pleasure?

Differentiation is designing instruction with students in mind, and a remedy for the ineffective one-size-fits-all model.
It's not impossible. It's not unrealistic. It's what we are supposed to do as teachers.
Everything on the left-hand column is considered good practice.

Teaching directed number soon? "Proof by Patterns" is a nice way to see why a − (−b) = a + b.
Start from the top row and encourage pupils to see what patterns they spot.

Do you believe that every student can build a better relationship with math?!? 🧐
If the answer is Yes (and it is), then you can really change the pathway of your students’ future success in math.
Behave. Believe. Become.
