Guided Math Workstations for Grades K to 2 - Strategies to Put Guided Math into Action in Early Elementary School Classrooms - Create Math Workshops and Implement Math Workstations for Ages 4 to 8 / Shell Education, Donna Boucher

Address and target your students’ varied learning needs with Guided Math Workstations.

Guided Math Workstations help provide a carefully planned numeracy-rich environment where students are challenged to not just do math, but to become mathematicians. When utilizing guided math workstations, sometimes known as a math workshop, teachers will be able to successfully target the specific needs of learners with small-group lessons as students work independently on tasks.

Guided Math Workstations for Grades K-2 was created by teachers for teachers and students by the experts at Shell Education. It provides detailed instructions on how to successfully implement guided math workshops into grade K-2 classrooms, and contains detailed instructions for all the steps from set up to planning and managing existing workstations.

Each workstation task includes: an overview of the lesson, materials, objective, procedure, and differentiation tactics; a Student Task card with directions and a materials list for the task to help with implementation and organization; a Talking Points card with math vocabulary words and sentence stems to encourage mathematical discourse; and additional resources for each task.

About Shell Education
Rachelle Cracchiolo started the company with a friend and fellow teacher. Both were eager to share their ideas and passion for education with other classroom leaders. What began as a hobby, selling lesson plans to local stores, became a part-time job after a full day of teaching, and eventually blossomed into Teacher Created Materials. The story continued in 2004 with the launch of Shell Education and the introduction of professional resources and classroom application books designed to support Teacher Created Materials curriculum resources. Today, Teacher Created Materials and Shell Education are two of the most recognized names in educational publishing around the world.
