Whether you’re switching things up or staying the course in your math classroom, there are some things to prepare for the New Year. Every teacher prepares for the New Year a little differently. We’re going to look at three different ways to help you be better prepared for everything in January.
1. Teachers Make a Plan for the New Year
Whether you decide to focus on informal assessments or implementing more vocabulary, you need to have a plan in place. How are you going to teach math this year? What can you do differently to help your students make learning gains and reach new levels of mathematics?
Planning is great when you have the right tools. The 2023 Teacher Planner is easy for math teachers to use and plan their year. Inside you will receive all of the resources to prepare and be ready for your best year!

2. Teachers Set Math Goals for the New Year
In the New Year, teachers make grade level math expectations for their students. Start this new year off right with the Math Mastery Wall Display. Students put their names on the wall when they’ve achieved math mastery of a grade level skill. A favorite goal maker activity for kids! This activity not only sets the expectation for learning, but it also adds intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for kids too.
The Math Mastery Wall Display Includes:
- List of incentives for students achieving math mastery
- Teacher directions for setup
- Math Mastery tickets for kids
- Math Mastery Charts unnumbered and numbered 1-8
- Poster of Math Mastery Goals

3. Teachers Make Personal Time in the New Year
If you found yourself with less time for you this past year, maybe it’s time for a change. What could you do differently to make time for you in the new year? Try the five-step guide to teacher life balance, it’s called “Make Time for You”.
The guide to teacher life balance designed by a teacher for teachers like you. Make Time For You is about helping you find time for what matters to you. Stressed or overwhelmed? Learn how to make balance in your teacher life now. Inside I share how I went from working 10 hours a day at school down to 7.5 hours. We go through the 5 steps of cutting out things from your schedule to make more time for you in your life.
