What do I do when my students do not have the background knowledge to learn the skills they need to learn in sixth grade? Do I take the time to reteach or do I just keep going so I have enough time to cover what I need to cover in sixth grade?

Worksheet Generator

by George

Nov 15, 2013

I am looking for a program that will allow me to create my own problems and then generate multiple worksheets. I teach a Business class and I have too many kids copy each other. I would love to be able to create multiple versions of a worksheet with out having to manually do it. Anyone know of any programs like this? Thanks

Common Core Algebra 1?

by Algebra Teacher

Nov 22, 2013

My colleagues and I (high school Algebra teachers) are wondering how different states are implementing Common Core Algebra 1. Specifically, we were wondering how the questions on the final exam review look like (or any other county/state assessments). Can anyone give examples? Thank you.
