Month
Math Journals
Math journals are one way of bringing formative assessment into our classrooms.
Elements of an Effective Math Journal
• rich math tasks • students use numbers, symbols, pictures, and
words to explain their mathematical thinking• audience for their journal is their teacher,
fellow students, and themselves• opportunity for students to read their
journals to partners and whole class
Teacher’s Role
• Teacher will need to model the writing process and mathematical language.
• Teacher will use open-ended questioning strategies to guide students in their writing.
• Teacher will give students the opportunity to revisit similar tasks.
• Teacher will focus on the different strategies used to solve the problem. Teachers will reinforce the emphasis on the problem solving process rather than the answer.
