A5: We did frayers a lot. Most of the time on a shared slide so kids could "cheat" and see each other's work. Review I used Gimkit to make it fun. Kids would also create the Review questions so they had to write/punctuate/spell correctly.

A6: Math Inspectors Series. I love this because it is a series which can help students see patterns across longer texts AND mystery has an element of noticing/wondering/revising thinking along the way!

Thinking a bit about the similar structures or routines in both math & literacy content blocks. Student voices, executive functioning supports, engagement, organization…
