Amp Up Your Math Block with Guided Math
Your math block doesn’t have to look the same every day or feel like a struggle to manage.
Guided Math AMPED: Five Steps to Your Best Math Block walks you through a practical approach to creating a flexible, student-centered math block where students have opportunities to learn, practice, collaborate, and think mathematically.
I wrote Guided Math AMPED after years of seeing what worked (and what didn’t) in real elementary classrooms. My goal was to give teachers a structure they could understand, adapt, and actually use.
