The First 30 Days of School Bundle
A 30-day implementation guide that shows K-12 math teachers exactly
what to do, what to say, and what to look for as they build a classroom
where students learn to think independently from the first day of school.
Every teacher knows the first days of school matter.
We were all taught that we need to use that time to set the stage for how our class operates. As a result, most teachers spend that time establishing procedures for how students should behave.
But that is only half of what needs to happen.
We must also set the stage for how students should engage in mathematical thinking.
Not just “How to enter the class room”, but also “What to do when you feel stuck”.
When teachers focus on procedures for behavior in isolation, the consequences of that decision show up in October as learned helplessness.
The result is a class full of students who need you for every single step, who shut down the moment the math is unfamiliar, and who are 100% dependent on you to do the thinking for them.
That is not an engagement problem. That is a class culture problem.
The Mathematical Thinking Blueprint was built to help you correct this.
The blueprint gives you a day-by-day plan for the first 30 days of school. It works alongside your existing curriculum, inside your existing schedule, without requiring permission or extra planning time.
The first 30 days will happen whether you are ready or not. The Mathematical Thinking Blueprint makes sure you are ready.
What you get:
📈The Mathematical Thinking Blueprint–$105 Value
A 30-day implementation guide organized around four research-backed themes: Psychological Safety, Mathematical Agency, Mathematical Reasoning, and Mathematical Identity. This is not a book of theories or a generic list of strategies.
Each day gives you:
A daily goal so you know the purpose of activity and why it matters in the 30 day sequence
Specific teacher moves and language so you never have to guess what to say as you build class culture, or how to respond in the moments that threaten to break class culture.
Student evidence that help you read the room and know whether you are on track to reach the goal for the day.
Common pitfalls so you can avoid the mistakes that quietly undermine everything you are trying to build
Reflection prompts so each day makes the next one better.
A notes section so you can track your own thinking as you grow your students thinking skills.
📋A Live 90-Minute Implementation Workshop – $110 Value
Knowing what to do and knowing how to do it inside your specific classroom are two different things.
This live session is where the blueprint becomes your personal blueprint. Bring your curriculum, your concerns, and your unanswered questions. We will walk through the playbook together and you will leave with a customized implementation plan built around your students, your school, and your starting point.
Choose your session: July 30 at 7pm EST or August 27 at 7pm EST
Can't make it live? Send your questions in advanced and watch the replay is included with your purchase so you can return to it as the school year begins.
✏️ Full Collection of Math Prompts – $37 Value
Over 50 thoughtfully designed math prompts built to surface student thinking before misconceptions become habits. These are not generic review questions. They are designed to reveal how students are thinking — which tells you exactly where to focus your instruction.
Use them as class starters, exit tickets, homework, or progress monitoring tools throughout the year. They work at every grade level and alongside any curriculum.
(TOTAL VALUE: $252)
Special Offer Price: $87
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
✔️You are a K-12 math teacher who finished last year feeling like something needs to change, but you haven't had the time, or the tools, to figure out what.
✔️You have students who disengage the moment they are asked to work independently.
✔️You finished last year feeling like your students were with you during instruction, but the assessment data showed you they were not.
✔️You spend more time in October reteaching September content than you want to admit.
✔️You believe your students are capable of achieving more and you are willing to examine your own practice to find out why the gap exists.
THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF:
❌You believe that student learn best when they are told what to do, not taught how to think.
❌You are looking for a shortcut that does not require you to reflect on or adjust your own practice.
❌You want a to lead with content and curriculum, rather than creating a thinking culture where all students thrive.
❌You are not yet convinced that what happens in the first 30 days determines what happens for the rest of the year.
Meet Your Host: Nakasha Kirkland
Hi! I am Nakasha and I understand the challenges of delivering strong math instruction while combating learned helplessness and chronic absenteeism. Since 2012, I’ve watched teachers work harder than their students and wonder why students were so dependent on them. Now I help them bridge the gap between planning, teaching, and the kind of instruction that builds mathematical reasoning. My passion for building clarity, trust, and results in math led me to create The Mathematical Thinking Blueprint.
Ready to stop guessing and start building your student’s thinking skills from day 1?

-
Yes! The framework is designed specifically for teachers to create a class culture where all students feel valued, beyond their academic achievement.
While the collection of math prompts are content specific, the blueprint focuses on building the analytical and reasoning skills all students need to develop in every content.
-
Absolutely.
This bundle is grounded in the Mathematical Practices supported by NCTM and fits seamlessly alongside your school’s current protocols.
Think of it as a content-specific guide that brings sharper focus to how students develop mathematical thinking across all grade-level content.
-
The examples used during the workshop derive from grades 5 - Algebra 1, but the tools, activities, and framework is flexible enough to support all levels of K-12 math classrooms.
