For Learning about Math, it's kinda up to you, but I've seen it successful with practice of the current skill since the other tubs are more spiral review.

For buddy games, they are math games that practice skills that have already been covered. For using manipulatives, they are pattern blocks, dominoes, geoboards, etc. that students can just play around with. Independent reading is books about math. The teachers were able to find some low level math books and so the students read those from that bin. Learning about numbers are number sense activites like hundreds charts. Doing math is usually focused on addition and subtraction and is worksheets and/or games. I hope this helps!

We tend to follow 'Cognitive Guided Instruction', Marilyn Burns, and 'Investigations'. And we do it all in math journals and follow 'math workshop'....lots of them sharing their strategies.<br /><br />Super ideas to think about!
