Instructional Coaching Tips
• Scratch Paper Required: Have students number and show work for each problem called. This creates instant accountability and makes verifying BINGOs rapid.Simplest Form: Remind students that all answers on cards are written in simplest form (proper fractions or mixed numbers, not improper fractions).Turn Pacing: Allow 45-60 seconds per operation prompt. Call problems from a mix of operations (+, −, ×, ÷) to keep students nimble.
