What's guided math?

Guided math is a different way of teaching, students are in small groups and instruction is based on individual skills. Instead of teaching the whole group of students, the students will be given a mini lesson on the learning objective of the lesson. Then, they will break off into their skill based groups.

We use the analogy "MATH"

M: Meet the teacher: This group of students will be taught specific skills that will help them meet the objective of the lesson.

A: At your seat: This group of students will be completing independent work at their seats.

T: Technology: Students will learn a math skill by using our I pads. This is very engaging to students!

H: Hand on: This group of students will be completing "hands on"

    Since the 1980’s calculator use in the classroom has been a huge controversy between educators (Golden, 2000). It is becoming increasingly common to use calculators in the classroom on a regular basis. Some states allow students to use calculators on standardized tests and as part of the regular curriculum (Dion, 2001). Because we live in such a technologically changing world, hand held calculators have been far surpassed and can be purchased for as low as $4.00 each. This low price however, has not swayed the many people that believe calculators are not appropriate in the classroom.

  • Personalized Learning

    Individualized learning was developed and found a footing in the academic systems in the 1970s (Joyce, Weil and Calhoun, 2000). This rose as an alternative approach to the previously used traditional group instructional approaches. The individualized learning model was framed in such a way that it allowed students to have more time as well as receive appropriate instruction where they so needed it. Further, the model’s curriculum content as well as the work that was undertaken by the said students was determined and evaluated by their classroom teacher. There was however recognition by Joyce et al. that due to the modern advancements in the fields of instructional technology, there has been a greater possibility of individualization being a general possibility at date.

    Taylor happens to be a fifth grade student in today’s day and age of technology. Her generation has been raised by technology. Although the technology may benefit society in several ways, it may also set it back in others. Calculators being used in math classes are one example of the technology that remains unbeneficial for society. The benefit is students solve problems faster, yet calculators diminish the crucial points of why students utilize them. According to Christina Sheets’ experiment, restricting the employment of a calculator of four months improved the average final exam scores from 88.4% to 91.7%. Calculators impair learning the concepts behind the math and diminish critical thinking while practicing math problems.

As a future educator, we need make sure that our knowledge is always up-to-date and applicable in the process of teaching and learning from time to time. With these skills, we will be able to improvise and improve the lesson and therefore boost the competency of pupils in the process of learning. In the process of planning a lesson, I have changed my perception on lesson planning from the student’s desk to the teacher’s desk. I have taken the responsibility as a teacher to plan a whole 60-minutes lesson with my group members. This coursework has given me an opportunity
