Final Review
This week is the last week for SOL review. To keep the students focused, we have been using several strategies at all grade levels. What seems to really work is getting the students to talk and explain in writing what skill that was currently reviewed. The student then has to share their writing with a peer. If the student can't explain the procedure in writing such as how to find the discount/mark up, then this will let me know as a teacher what the student needs help on. Addtionally, if the student is able to write about it, the student tends to truly understand the concept.
