Let's Create Your Kick Ass Math Class

Where are you at mentally right now?

Honestly, I’m overwhelmed and feel like nothing is working.

I’ve tried some things, but engagement is still inconsistent.

I’m ready to run projects or make bigger changes, but I want support.

I’m building full PBL units and want to refine or extend them.

My class is running strong and I want to design more original projects or mentor others.

When you think about your student engagement...

Students are often disengaged or off-task; I feel like I’m fighting for attention.

I’m seeing pockets of engagement but still struggle with consistency.

Engagement improves when I try new things, but I need more structure.

My students are generally engaged, but I want to challenge them even more with real-world tasks.

My students are highly engaged most days, and I’m looking for deeper, innovative work.

How confident are you in planning lessons that feel real and relevant?

Not confident at all — I don’t even know where to start.

Somewhat confident — I’ve tried a few new ideas but need more help.

Fairly confident — I can plan smaller real-world tasks but bigger projects feel intimidating.

Confident — I’ve planned full projects and real-world tasks but want to improve them.

Very confident — I’m designing my own projects but want fresh ideas & tech tools.

When it comes to projects or PBL…

I’ve never tried a project before.

I’ve dabbled but feel unsure about how to fully implement one.

I’ve run at least one small project but want to build full units.

I’m running multiple projects but want to refine and deepen them.

I design custom projects regularly and want to take them to the next level.

Which best describes your biggest need right now?

I need hope and one small win to feel like change is even possible.

I need better routines and systems that help students engage consistently.

I need confidence and support to successfully launch a project.

I need tools to build deeper PBL units and remix real-world connections.

I need advanced tools to innovate, mentor, and design high-level PBL work.

How would you describe your classroom systems?

I feel like I’m barely holding it together.

I have some routines but still struggle with classroom energy or engagement.

I have decent systems but worry about managing full projects.

My systems work but I want to streamline and strengthen them.

My systems run smoothly and I’m ready to layer in innovation.
