This month's tips are focused on math strategies.  

The website www.mathwire.com has some helpful instructional strategies for teaching math.  (Actually, these could be used for other subjects, too.)  I know that in my live Cyber++ class, the students especially like being allowed to use the whiteboards.  

Here is a strategy tool list that breaks down math strategies with visuals.  You can download it here:

Of course, it's been a long time since we were in elementary school, and the way math is taught now is probably different than what we remember!  You can download a glossary here:

December RAMP Dates

Because of the vacations and Keystone testing, our RAMP schedule looks a little different for December.  We will only have 2 sessions this month.

Wednesday, December 4th, 3:00-- Fractions (Math)



**NO RAMP WEEK OF DECEMBER 9TH DUE TO KEYSTONE TESTING**

Monday, December 16th, 3:00-- Time Order/Sequence of Events (Reading)


If you haven't come to RAMP before, I hope you will start!  These hour-long sessions are a great time for the kids to interact with me and each other while practicing important skills.  I try to make them as fun as possible!  :)

**Please note that all RAMP sessions are recorded.  I'm happy to answer general questions that you may have at the end of our sessions, but private questions/concerns are better addressed in an email.**

Upcoming Events

Please note that our school and offices will be closed on the following dates:

Thursday, November 28-Monday, December 2 (Fall Break)

Tuesday, December 24-Wednesday, January 1 (Winter Break)

Enjoy your time off!
