Thoughtful Thursday: Throwback Thursday



We decided to link up and bring you a Throwback Thursday post for our Thoughtful Thursday this week! With all the getting ready for Back to School thoughts in mind we thought it would be fitting to bring back an old Maniac Math Monday post! Enjoy!

************************************************************************************

 Hey everyone it is the start of a new week and time for our second Maniac Math Monday! We have been working really hard on a project we would like to share with everyone this week. As we all know the end of the year can be very stressful for students and teachers with all the end of the year assessments. We have made a packet that serves as a way to review with your students and also allows teachers to see what areas the students are struggling with. We even used it in the place of weekly homework. It is a very useful tool to alleviate some of that end of the year stress.

We call this math packet the “Math Challenge” and it is aligned with the Georgia 5th grade Math Common Core Standards. It covers many of the topics that are covered throughout the year. It includes daily practice as well as weekly projects. It is designed to take 4 weeks to complete but can be graded weekly in order to assess how students are doing. 

We have posted the full "Math Challenge" in our TpT store and we also have a free preview for everyone to check out. Lets us know what you think!



What are some ways you like to prepare your students for their end of the year assessments? Do you think a challenge like this could be beneficial for your students?
