My classroom tested system for implementing guided math that includes group coaching, instructional videos and ALL THE RESOURCES to get started.
Between trying to fit everything into your schedule, managing student behavior, cover recess duty, and grading papers, you barely have time to write your lesson plans, much less math them differentiated.
I'm already exhausted just thinking about it all.
Not to mention, the thought of searching for math stations each week and then prepping them all is something you just don't have time for.
Give me all the chips and queso because I'm whipped.
You aren’t sure how to manage your students working independently while you teach at the small group table so it isn’t COMPLETE chaos.
You are unsure how to group your students correctly to meet individual needs.
You don’t know how to simplify your lesson plans so planning for differentiation isn’t overwhelming.
If you're new to me ... I'm a former 2nd grade math teacher turned educational consultant and curriculum designer.
I started my Teachers Pay Teachers journey back in 2012 as a side hustle. That experience led me to becoming a National Presenter for SDE, appearing at their National iTeach 2nd Conference for six years, joining the Teach Your Heart Out team, and partnering with ESGI!
Before leaving the classroom to pursue helping educations full time, I spent 9 years perfecting my guided math instruction. The first time I tried math stations, I did it because my administration told me to. It was through trial and error that I developed a system that worked for me and my students. I was throw into it with no training and am 100% self-taught.
Once I finally had a good set of routines and procedures in place, I started to notice a change in even my most reluctant students. They were beginning to LOVE MATH!! Through the guided math format, I was able to meet each individual student on their level and give them what they needed most.
I pride myself in being able to deliver resources and training to teachers to truly make your life easier and students more engaged.
✅ You had a simple system for classroom management that kept your students on task so you could hold small group instruction with minimal interruptions.
✅ You knew how to use simple data to help you form your groups and identify teaching points.
✅ You had a solid understanding about what kind of activities your students should be working on during stations.
✅ Your students felt included and showed up with confidence and excitement to learn.
You know from past experience that with guided math comes procedures and these procedures com with time but you crave a shortcut to you can skip the chaos.
I had all these thoughts for YEARS while I was teaching before I made a different decision. Which is why I can confidently tell you that I found the secret ... the solution that helps close the gaps and makes each student feel successful.
And now I'm on a mission to help teachers JUST like you!
Managing Math Stations was built to help you succeed in every step of the process in implementing guided math. Each module includes videos and downloadable content to help you actually implement while you learn.
Managing Math Stations is a valuable way to earn professional development credit for continuing education.
Upon completion of this training, you'll receive a professional development certificate for 8 credit hours.
Please note that each school district is different when it comes to certification requirements. I recommend checking with your administration to be sure it is accepted.
Managing Math Stations includes 5 modules with 21 training videos
that will walk you through implementing Guided Math step-by-step.
Each lesson will include downloadable content such as a graphic organizers, helpful guides or teaching resources to implement what you've learned the next day.
For continued support from me, you'll be able to join our alumni Facebook community so you and your fellow teachers never feel alone again!
This will be a space to collaborate, learn and grow from each other.
Plus, you'll get access to Marcy so she can answer your questions along the way.
In this module, you will learn everything from setting up your math blocks to establishing rules and procedures. We will also dive in and discuss how to launch Guided Math in your classroom.
In this module, we will talk about all things organization for your classroom. I'll share some ways to keep all of your items organized and provide you with bonus materials to get you started.
In module 3, we will discuss all the components of a whole group lesson. I'll share examples and several ways to include a warm up, a mini-lesson and independent practice all in this short time frame.
In module 4, we really dive deep into planning for small groups. I'll show you how to use multiple forms of data to form your groups and plan differentiated lessons. In this module, you'll be presented with a mock class and take actionable steps to plan their lessons.
This module is all about math stations. We will discuss sample activities, differentiation, and how to hold your students accountable for their learning.
Upon completion of Managing Math Stations, you'll receive a 8 hour professional development certificate to turn into your administration for credit hours.
You'll get the following:
✔️ Guided Math Binder
✔️ Math Station Rotation Board

✔️ Math Comprehension Question Stems
✔️ Math Manipulative Labels
Done for you lesson plans
Not only will you get all of my materials, but you'll also get my 5 week launch guide where I'll provide you with a step-by-step, day-by-day, lesson plans for implementing Guided Math.
They focus on the gradual release method and implementing various classroom management strategies so that you nor your students get overwhelmed.
Instant Data!
ESGI has become a staple in my classroom and I'm so excited for you to get to experience it! With over 1,000 pre-made assessments, collecting data has never been easier. I have even partnered with ESGI to create 2nd grade math and ELA assessments aligned with the TEKS.
I know that it can cost thousands of dollars to bring in a math coach and have them work with teachers for a day.
I also know that most school districts do not have that option. This is actually a huge reason why I strive to help teachers JUST LIKE YOU!
So will you let me but the instructional coach in your back pocket?
Let your administration pay the registration fee for you!
Have them contact support@saddleupfor2ndgrade.com

If you want to implement guided math with small group teaching into your day but don’t have time to figure it out one your own…
If your students are not where they need to be because of almost 2 years of virtual learning…
If you’re sick and tired of trying and not seeing student growth…
If you’ve ever thought “My instruction is just not working”...
If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and just don’t have the time to learn to do this on your own…
Then straight up? It’s not going to change if you’re not in this program.
Because “winging it” and hoping it all works out is not the best practice for your students and they deserve better and so do you.
So… you in?
