6th+Grade+Best+Practices

Around the World with Expressions - Print out the locations around the world and post them in various locations. Have students cycle around the room and simplify the expressions. Students can use the posted answer sheet to record their work and answers.

Progress Monitoring Tool - The attached tool can be used to monitor student progress on indicators. The fifth grade indicators are included so that teachers can see which 5th grade skills are learned prior to the 6th grade skill. The unit numbers are the Investigation units in which that indicator is presented. Teachers are welcome to borrow my Investigations Teacher Guides. B.Riggs
