• Mathematician Monday- Multiplication & Division, Whole Numbers & Decimals, Expressions & Equations, Problem-Solving, Ratios & Rates
• Number System Tuesday: Whole Numbers & Decimals, Rational Numbers, Statistics & Probability
• Wordless Wednesday: No Word Problems! Students have 3 problems without words. Multiplication & Division, Expressions & Equations,
• Throwback Thursday: Relationships Between Variables, Geometry, Graphs, Coordinate Planes, Units of Measure
• Fraction Friday: Nothing says Fun Friday like Fractions! Fractions, Percent

I created this resource in my own classroom because I saw a need to continuously review these key areas.  By following this same structure each week, students know what to expect while they are also building their confidence in these essential math areas. 

I have also found several other benefits from this morning work routine: 

1)Routine!-My students knew exactly what to do when they come in the classroom.  Also, if I needed a few extra minutes due to meetings or other housekeeping duties, I knew my students were spending that time working on essential math skills, not just “busy work.”  The morning work is meant to be short and sweet, skill practice, plus engaging.

2)Short & Sweet- There are only a few problems so it shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes.  This will also let you know if students are still having difficulty with a certain skill.

3)Fewer Copies- Only one sheet of paper for the whole week! (Copy front and back)

4)A Weekly Grade-My students know this and do not want to do the work for homework or have a poor grade.  This helped get them started right away in the morning.  I also go over the problems each morning and allowed students to fix their work before turning it in. In my opinion, this is beneficial because it keeps the students engaged as we go over it, ESPECIALLY if they had difficulty with it. This was also beneficial for students because if they paid attention and “added on to their thinking,”  they can earn a good grade that will be added weekly.  For students that already struggle, this is confidence building and motivating.

Digital 

The Math Daily Review comes as a printable pdf and in a digital format. The digital format includes Google Slides and self-grading Google Forms. The links for both of these are on a separate

Google Slides: The Google Slides are organized into a weekly presentation. Each day is on one slide. Some teachers like to separate out the slides to share them on a daily basis. You are able to do this if you don't want to give students a whole week at a time.

Google Forms: With the Google Forms, each day has its own Google Form.
