Math Rotations Part 4

This has been a CRAZY two weeks! I was very sick last week, so I am sorry for not posting. This week I do have an excuse....I got a puppy over the weekend, so she has been occupying all of my time! Isn't she precious??





Okay, so back to math rotations. My second rotations is electronics. I am blessed to have 6 laptops and 4 iPads in my room, so half of my class can be on a device at one time!! [Now, if they were all currently working at one time, we'd be in business!] For electronics, my district has a subscription to Compass Learning. Now, if you haven't heard of it or don't have it, I am SO sorry. It is amazing! This program allows me to create pretests for each math unit. After the students take their pretest, a learning path is created with lessons based on what the children need help with. AH-MAZING!! It's simple to create a pretest too. All you do is click the standards and it creates the test for you! :)

On the iPads, I have several favorite apps. I love IXL, which you can use without a subscription. It gives you 20 practice problems a day.
