Observation Notes:

Kristi, you did a great job of planning your lesson! Started with a
simple review, had several layers of difficulty embedded into
your lesson- great differentiation, fun wind up game! You were
creative and added your own touch with different items for the
grocery store and dice game! Well done!!!

- worked individually with students to name coins, used
calculators to check answers, praised hand raising, gave group
response to check to see if their answers were correct!
- lowered your voice to get class to be quiet also
-used humor to build fun, relationship building classroom Mr.
Wiggle Man over there

quiet hands try it again and see if you can get it right I heard a
voice I didnt call on yet Whoohoo! All of you are correct!

three numbers at the end!

about them- this is a paper dicecareful not to crunch it too tight!
