Raise your hand if you caught the Blue's Clues reference! These math interactive notebooks really are handy and dandy. You've probably heard of math interactive notebooks. Maybe even tried a few out. And honestly, some of them are a complete waste of precious instructional time. BUT...THESE. THESE aren’t just any notebooks. They’re NO-FOLD notebooks. Yep...easy peasy. They will SUPPORT your lesson...NOT hijack your whole math block. ⏳ Here’s how they help your students: 📓 They get involved Instead of zoning out while you model, students are gluing in their own notebook page and jotting down your notes and examples in the extra space. 🧰 They’re a built-in reminder Once your whiteboard’s erased, the lesson is gone. But the notebook? Still right there in their desk. And they can look back at them any time they need to. ✏️ They build independence Teach students to flip back for help. Model how you use the notebook so they can too. These notebooks are ready for grades 2–5. They come with or without standards on the page. ✨ You're going to love having this tool for your students this year.
