Youre excited, but you probably have many questions and concerns: What do I do when students dont get the lesson? How can I help students who struggle with math that they supposedly learned in elementary school? How do I arrange for students who are absent to make up the work? Do I assign seating or let students choose their seats? Should I have students work in groups? How much homework should I assignand how much should I grade?\n\nThough you may envision your classroom as a place where students engage with mathematics and learn important content, you may also worry about how your teaching will actually play out.
