The role that math will play in my classroom will be a daily one. I think that math is very important and after being placed in a fourth grade classroom where a majority of the students still don't know their multiplication facts towards the end of the year, I am motivated to incorporate it into my classroom as a large role, especially because I plan on teaching lower elementary.
It is difficult to say specifically what methods and instructional techniques I plan to use, especially because I do not feel that I am educated enough in this area to know right now. There are a few methods that I've learned about and seen in the classroom, but I think my own will develop with time. In my previous blog, I mentioned that I am interested in interactive teaching and integrating technology into my lessons. As of right now my vision of planning and assessing math include a SMART Board.
Through this past year I have learned so much about how to integrate technology into the classroom, especially through CEP 416, and have learned that you can use the SMART Board to your advantage to teach any subject. Lessons can be easily planned and taught using the Board, and assessments, individual or group, can be done using the Board as well. Now this is my vision for my perfect future classroom, but I can't be sure of what resources will be available to me throughout my first few years of teaching. If I do not have access to these resources, I still plan on teaching interactively.
