Maths Expectations Chart

Four chart pages support different levels of teacher and student input. One completed version states expectations for using, sharing, discussing, and cleaning up maths tools while also outlining workspace and collaboration choices. Additional pages retain the headings with blank areas, and a title-only design offers even more flexibility. The set can anchor an explicit mini-lesson about treating manipulatives as learning tools and revisiting routines throughout the year.
