Grade K K.MD.3 sorting

shared by Mary Jo Mack on 31 Jan 12 - No Cached
  • Does Dad’s tool box need to be tidied up? Get your child to help you clean, while sneaking in a little math along the way. Sorting objects by size, color, shape, or function is an important concept in mathematical reasoning, and it’s the perfect excuse for a little housekeeping!

      This activity can be used as a language development activity for ELL students. You can ask them to describe the shapes and colors of the nuts and bolts. ELL students can use their visual strengths to excel in sorting activities such as this one.

      This would be a great activity for math tubs. Make sure not to include anything that could be sharp or a danger to a 5 or 6 year old student!

Operations and Algebraic Thinking 1.OA.3 math activities Grade 1 Centers Stations

shared by Lori Jones on 02 Feb 12 - Cached
  • Addition Mission         Game mats               Number cards This game is designed to practice addition skills. Children should be somewhat familiar with addition before playing. Print one set of game mats (enough for 6 players) and one set of number cards (pages 2-5 ONLY). Then reinsert the number card pages into your printer so that you can print Buzz Light Year (page 1 ONLY) on the back (or use your printers double-sided feature if it has one). Cut apart number cards. Laminate the game mats or place inside plastic protectors. To play, children take turns choosing 2 Buzz cards. The child adds the numbers together and if he has the matching sum on his game mat, he places the cards on the mat. If not, he discards them. Play continues until one player fills his game mat. This player wins.

    Addition Mission:  Students each have a game mat and take turns choosing two cards.  He/she adds the two cards together, and if he has a matching sum on the game mat, he puts the cards on the mat.  If not, he discards him.

      Students could each have a different "job" to differentiate skills.  Teacher could group the students of different abilities together.  Students could wear lab glasses as they measure.

    This is a terrific activity that can help students with observations and predictions.  It is perfect for cooperative learning.

    CCS: 1:G:1,2,& 3 What is funner than having the kids see the shapes they are learning about in their everyday enviornment. You can teach them about graphing, and also making educated guesses as well. Also helps get teh kids active in their own learning.

      6.RP.3  Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems Differentiation: For gifted students or younger students you could change the percentage amount to make it easier or more challenging to figure out the "winner's tax."
  • Liz Dilts on 06 Feb 12
     
    In this game students roll a dice and depending on the number they rool they put that many chips in a cup.  At the end of each round the students must count up their chips and winners must put a 20% "winner's tax" back into the cup for the next game.

      This is a great science activity that can be used every day during calendar time. This helps the students work on their vocabulary while learning weather terms, as well as incorporating math, using graphs. Providing visuals to describe the weather at the top of the graph is a great way to provide visual connections for ELL students.

    Watching the winter snow pile up on a grassy yard is nice, but investigating it is even better! Boost your child's science and observation skills by guiding her through this winter weather-filled project. She'll chart the amount of snow or hours of rain that have fallen at your house this winter using a ruler, measuring tape, or even her hands! This ongoing seasonal graphing activity will even enlist her math skills and organization ability.

    This is a great way for students to visualize what components are actually in our blood. It is hard for most kids to understand what they cannot see. If they cannot see the ed blood cells, white blood cells, and plasma, it can be confusing for them. This activity can imulate blood and the studetns can see all of the different componenets.

Named after French philosopher and physicist René Descartes, this classic science experiment is a great way for kids to see the principle of buoyancy at work. And with such a simple set-up, it's a fun and inexpensive way to dive into physics!
