The increased focus on writing about math and "explaining your thinking" sometimes leaves less time in the classroom for practicing basic math facts. In response to this, we're also including a deck of cards and a pair of dice in every Image Builders Mentoring binder this year.
Along with the Literacy Builders activity sheets in the mentoring binders, you'll also find Math Builders activities with suggestions for math games that use cards and/ or dice. You can also check out our boards and follow us on Pinterest for updated math and literacy ideas.
As always, feel free to adapt these ideas to fit the needs and personality of your Scholar.
Whether you choose to focus on Top Secret Adventures, Literacy Builders, Math Builders, reading a book, etc. during your mentoring time, the primary focus should always be on your Scholar and not a task to be completed. Some days you may just need to listen and give your Scholar space to decompress so they can return to class refreshed, encouraged and ready to learn.
Here's a preview of the Math Builders sheets that will be in your binder, along with a link to print a PDF copy in case you need it.
Thank you for all you do!
