5th Grade Math Sidekick
EDITABLE FILE INCLUDED
If you're anything like me, you find yourself begging your students to apply the skills they have learned in your mini-lessons. No matter how many times you remind them, they always seem to forget the skills you are trying to get them to practice independently!
Sidekicks have been a huge help in my classroom over the past couple of years. When implemented correctly, it fosters so much independence for my students. It allows me to work in small group or have 1:1 conferences without constantly getting interrupted. It also has allowed more wall space in my classroom. My classroom does not have that much wall space, so I can only keep about 3-4 anchor charts up at a time. This sidekick is like 19 anchor charts in one folder!
First, it is important to TEACH your students how to use it. Do not simply give them this sidekick and expect them to know how to use it. As you teach each skill, refer to the sidekick and show them where they can find that specific skills. Teach them how to “read” that section of the sidekick.
Second, decide HOW you want students to use the sidekicks. You can make a copy for every student, or have 5 copies in a central location for students to grab when necessary.
Third, decide when students are allowed to use their sidekicks…some ideas are…
•During independent practice
•During group work
•During quizzes
•During Tests
•Keep a copy in students go-home folders for them to refer to during homework. This will be very helpful for students who do not have help at home.
These math sidekicks are PERFECT for students to pull out on their desks while they are working on math. They also work as great study carrels to keep students focused on their work.
Works for 4th grade (and possibly beyond, depending on your student's needs!)
