There's a way to get even your most reluctant students hooked on math.
INTRODUCING
The Shelley Gray Teaching MEMBERSHIP
Created for Grades 3-5 teachers or homeschooling parents who are determined to teach math in a relevant, fun, and meaningful way without spending hours looking for the perfect resources.
By the time many students get to upper elementary grades, they already possess limiting beliefs about their math abilities. They see math as simply getting a right answer. They may believe that they aren’t a “math person” and struggle to see how math is relevant to their lives. This not only impacts their motivation in your classroom, but also their future success.
As a teacher, it can feel impossible to fulfill overwhelming curriculum expectations, fill the gaps in learning from previous years, AND keep math fun and relevant at the same time.
The good news is that you can transform the way your students feel about math. You can take the frustration that math often causes, and turn it into excitement. You can take the dread, and turn it into confidence. When concepts are approached in the right way, they become less intimidating. Suddenly math becomes fun, relevant, and meaningful.
You are invited...
You are invited to be a member of the Shelley Gray Teaching Membership.
This membership includes all the resources you’ll find in my TpT store in one convenient membership portal. Additionally, you will have first access to all NEW resources! These resources have been helping teachers approach math in a meaningful way for over 14 years!
Join here!Until now, you've had to collect resources one by one, often having to choose between which one best suits the majority of your students.
But what if you had access to HUNDREDS of resources at your fingertips? What if you could differentiate to your students using the resources that best suit them, without having to purchase multiple separate resources?
“[Shelley’s resources] have saved my life during distance learning!! They are so helpful and easy to use!”

YES PLEASE!Sneak Peek Inside:
Here is a small sample of the resources you will have immediate access to.
Product Line #1:
Digital Math Resources
Digital math resources are designed for use with Google Slides™ but will also work with Microsoft TEAMS™. Your students will work towards deep understanding by moving and manipulating objects right on their screen. Digital resources are fantastic for remote learning, but are also widely used digitally inside the classroom.
Product Line #2:
Real Life Math Projects
Real life math projects are a high-interest activity that will motivate even your most reluctant learners. Whether your students are “running a pizza place,” “running a lawn mowing business,” or “creating a dinosaur park,” these projects will keep them begging for more. Many teachers report that their students ask to take these home to work on during breaks from school!
Product Line #3:
Self-Paced Math Stations
Self-paced math stations have helped tens of thousands of students learn their math facts in a fun, non-intimidating way. Fact fluency is the main goal of these stations, and it’s approached in a way that allows every student to succeed at his own pace. You’ll find math stations for all basic operations, as well as multi-digit multiplication, multi-digit division, and fractions.
Product Line #4:
Escape Rooms
Escape rooms take student engagement to a whole new level. Your students will love cracking codes, solving clues, and working along with their classmates to get through the obstacles that face them! Escape rooms are a fantastic culminating activity and allow students to use their math knowledge in a fun way.
BONUS!
When you join the Shelley Gray Teaching Membership today, I'm also throwing in my complete How to Teach Multiplication course!
This course is intended to put you on the fast track to teaching multiplication for true fluency and includes:
- Over 30 video lessons to walk you through each step of this system of teaching multiplication for deep understanding.
- Resources to help you implement the steps without any extra prep
- Three expert interviews with other educators - Donna Boucher of Math Coach's Corner, Bethany Lake of Math Geek Mama, and Brittany Hege of Mix and Math!
This course is sold separately for $97, but it's yours for FREE when you become a member today!
This membership is perfect for...
CLASSROOM TEACHERS
who have students working at a Grade 3-5 level and are committed to teaching math in an engaging way.
HOMESCHOOL PARENTS
who want to ensure their children are learning math in a conceptual way that builds understanding.
MATH INTERVENTION SPECIALISTS
who work one on one or with small groups of students to fill gaps in math understanding.
STUDENT TEACHERS
who are building a collection of resources and looking for quality math resources to begin their teaching careers.
The hundreds of resources (and all future resources) you'll find in this membership center around my core philosophy of teaching math:
- Math concepts are best taught using the Concrete-Representational-Abstract model, with a focus on concrete and representational so that students can build important understanding.
- UNDERSTANDING math facts is more important than memorizing math facts. Conceptual understanding is the key to math fact fluency.
- Students must be able to visualize math in order to really understand it.
- True math fluency is more than just speed and accuracy. It also includes flexibility, which is essential to true fluency.
- One of the best ways to build flexibility is by making connections and forming relationships between concepts.
- When we make small tweaks to our teaching, math can become one of the most engaging subjects of the day!
There are currently two different ways to purchase my resources.

Kayleigh's Testimonial
I seriously do not think I would have been able to survive this year without your membership! You have something for every skill and we can use them as teaching slides and assignments. I literally could cry in thanks to you!! I don't even have enough words to express my gratitude.
Kelly's Testimonial
I absolutely love having access to all your resources! I have printed different math stations for the different students in my classroom based on what they need to work on. I made booklets out of each station and no one even knows they are working on something different!
Tyler's Testimonial
Thank you, Shelley! This membership is the best purchase I've made. I've barely scratched the surface of what is available and already downloaded so many great resources!
I know that your goals are much bigger than simply saving time finding new resources.
I know that you want to create more light bulb moments for your students.
I know that you want to see the excitement that math can create when students truly understand and are motivated!
I know you want resources that will help students build understanding rather than simply answer questions.
I would love to help you take your math instruction to a new level this year.
REAL LIFE MATH PROJECTS
"I use these as independent practice and the kids LOVE finishing and getting the next one. Sometimes I even put out a couple and let them pick. They are absolutely the best thing I have found to show kids how much math is all over in real life!"
- Donna
THE EARLY FINISHER BOARD
"You might see this product advertised on some Facebook pages etc. When I first saw it I thought I am not that kind of teacher or I am not creative enough to manage that. Although there is a lot of cutting and possible laminating at first, it is totally worth it. I had slower kids kick it into gear to get their work done to do more of these engaging assignments."
- Kyle
THE ADDITION STATION
"This resource is great! The students can use it self-paced (once systems are taught) and they love it! I saw huge improvements in my students' fact fluency once we started working on this station. I would absolutely recommend this resource."
- Kassandra
How many of your students believe they aren't good at math? How many of your students would identify math as their least favorite subject?
So many kids believe they aren't good enough when it comes to math. The saddest part is that this is often due to not being as fast as someone else, being unsure about steps to a procedure, or not seeing the connection between math and real life.
This is heart-breaking to me, and it helps drive my mission to help teachers make math fun, relevant, and accessible for their students.
I am passionate about helping YOU help your students.
I want them to beg you to keep doing math.
I want them to tell you that this is the most fun they've ever had in math class.
I want them to be so motivated and engaged that they forget they are even 'doing math.'
I want your students to see that math is all around them, and be fascinated by it rather than intimidated.
I promise that when you teach in a way that
- promotes relevant, real-life scenarios
- focuses on concrete, representational, and abstract connections
- builds in freedom, power, and choice
your math class will forever be transformed.
LOST IN THE DESERT ESCAPE ROOM
"You should have heard the cheers when I said we were doing another escape room. Thank you for bringing that excitement and joy to my classroom."
- Amy
RUN A GROCERY STORE MATH PROJECT
"The students loved this project! We took it even further and they made their own "waste free grocery store" where parents and students could come buy things and we donated all of the money to charity! It was a great hands on learning experience for them."
- Nicole
DIGITAL PLACE VALUE
"Amazing resource! All of your resources are so practical and make teaching multiple grade levels at once so much easier. The students love the interactive component of your digital resources and are able to practice a newly acquired skill with ease!"
