"Revision" Teaching the Curriculum Everyday Practices

 

This page is under construction
Everyday Practices  

Everyday practices include structures that facilitate predictability within the school day as well as those which allow for a fluidity of movement between and among the many pieces of practice that overlap. Morning check-in, math warmups, checking homework, and the use of math notebooks are practices surrounding the math curriculum that Mary Hurley utilizes. While these practices are an integral part of her classroom structure, they are also subject to constant revision depending upon their impact. There are no particular pragmatic structures in her classroom that Hurley sees as "best practices" or ones that hold constant regardless of who her students are. The evolution of her practice is constant. The practices represented here are ones that work for her classroom for a particular year. They continue to grow and change.
