Synopsis

Every Day Counts®, published by Great Source Education Group, is a supplemental calendar math curriculum that uses changing data on a bulletin board to spark 10-15 minutes of daily math discussion. Elements such as Days of School Counting Tapes, Calendars, Coin Counters, Measurement, Clocks, Depositors, Daily Measurement, and Graphs make new grade level concepts hands on. Students are engaged with these new concepts all year long, not just during a single unit of study. Each year's conversations build on the language used by teachers at the prior grade level, creating consistent math language, a helpful factor in boosting school-wide achievement. In upper grades, new elements such as Daily Arrays, Fraction A Day, and Daily Decimal are introduced to help older students understand factors and primes, and the relationships among fractions, decimals and percents. Questioning strategies and discussion are the heart of Every Day Counts®. Thoughts to remember from the Every Day Counts® Sampler · Every Day Counts® is a lot of math in a little time! Start small and focus on discussion, the heart of Every Day Counts®. · Every Day Counts® gives students daily exposure to critical math concepts such as: place value, measurement, mental math, time, money, geometry, estimation, patterns and functions, graphing, and statistics. · Constructing meaning takes time - often more than a "unit" can provide. · Start small and build! Choose two or three activities each month for the first year. You may wish to begin in January or February with the Calendar, Daily Depositor, Graph and Clock in Pre-Kindergarten - Second Grade. Third and Fourth Grades may choose to begin with the Calendar, Coin Counter, and Daily Depositor. Grade Five may select all activities as a beginning. All grades may want to spend time 'catching up' with a counting tape. · Stay encouraged
