[|Math Quiz]  ====**"It is my belief that the learning that will take place by using the Guided Math approach, is the learning that we would all want our students to have: learning for understanding."** Janis K Drab Fackler====



====**"Teachers who have already established a classroom arranged to teach Guided Reading have a head start on this process. Their classroom arrangements will most likely be conducive to Guided Math." Laney Sammons** ====

**The Foundational Principles of Guided Math **

 * //**All students can learn mathematics. **//
 * //**A numeracy - rich environment promotes mathematical learning by students. **//
 * //**Learning at its best is a social process. **//
 * //**Learning mathematics is a constructive process. **//
 * //**An organized classroom environment supports the learning process. **//
 * //**Modeling and think-alouds, combined with ample opportunities for guided and then independent problem solving and purposeful conversations, create a learning environment in which students' mathematical understanding grows. **//
 * //**Ultimately, students are responsible for their learning. **//
