      You can adapt this lesson for ELL students by pairing with students at higher levels. Be sure you define and simplify vocabulary

      There are many ways to extend this puzzle for lower or higher grades. You can change the sizes of the tubs, or even add more tubs. You can change the amount to be measured out.

      Common core math 5.MD.4  I like that this allows students to ponder different questions, think through different ideas on how to calculate it, and in the process, learn about volume.  Students who need an extra challenge could determine how many peas would fill their homes, or how many to fill the school.  Students needing extra assistance can be paired with students who are stronger in math, and/or work with the teacher in small groups.

      Adaptations: Gifted students can show the sum multiple ways (using different currency) or write the equation for the addition or subtraction problem. EL Students can draw a picture of the currency needed to represent the sum. Other manipulatives can be used with this activity with the amount written in cents or dollars on the manipulatives.

      This activity can be used with other manipulatives that are labeled with the coin amounts. This activity connects math and LA. Adaptations include: require gifted students to show 3-5 ways to represent the sum using different currency or give the equation. EL students can draw a picture to represent the coins used.

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!
    • Mary Jo Mack

      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!

      1.MD.4 "Organize, represent, and interpret data with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number of data points, how many in each category, and how many more or less are in one category than in another." This activity can be modified for ELL students by drawing pictures, rather than writing words, in each category. For older age levels, this activity could include more difficult or complex categories.
  • Ashley Stewart on 31 Jan 12
     
    Children classify and sort objects found outdoors into a chart/graph on the sidewalk. This chart or graph can be written with sidewalk chalk. The categories can be predetermined by the teacher, or the students can come up with the categories.

      This activity has a natural connection to a science lesson about how our senses and nerves work to create reactions.  The teacher can require different forms of data analysis based on the students' skill level.  Simple min/max to averages and standard deviation are available.
  • William Templeton on 28 Jan 12
     
    A simple activity that is fun and competitive and can generate a lot of data for data analysis practice.

      This activity can be done in pairs for students who are having difficulty in finding/understanding area and volume. This activity will also help students who need to apply their knowledge to real objects they can easily see instead of ones in a textbook on a flat surface. This activity could connect to science. Students could hypothesize how much area or volume an object has and then determine if they were correct or not. The students could do this for several items and see if they become more accurate.

    This activity uses everyday objects to find volume and area.

      Allow students to work independently or in small groups.  Provide legos and base plates for student use.  Differentiation may include the chance to design the entire room, or just the toy box.  Students would have an opportunity to visually present, or just set up the model.  
  • Lori Jones on 02 Feb 12
     
    I plan to allow the students to design and build their toy boxes to scale.  I would model using legos (and legos could be provided to them for use as well.)  They would have an opportunity to layout the entire bedroom (to scale.)

      adapt this for students with special needs by having them first do this with a real coffee cup and sugar cubes to understand the concept. Also, you can click on easier levels or harder levels depending on student need.

      I love this game. There is really no need to come up with new ways to extend this activity, as the students pass each level they get a little more difficult! I think kids will LOVE this activity and not even realize they are learning! This will be good for working on introducing computer skills as well. Be sure to go over how to use the mouse for younger grades and ELL and special need students.

      you could adapt this game by selecting easier levels for students who need differeniation, and higher levels for advanced students.
  • Grade 3
  • Sugar Sugar is a cool geometry game. Sugar pours out from a place near the top of the screen, and your goal is to make the sugar fall into the correct cups. You do this by drawing on the screen with the mouse, and watching as sprinkles of sugar trickle down the lines you draw. Challenging and fun! Good for grades 3 to 12

      For the more advanced students you could place them in pairs and one of the students would create a shape and their partner would then have to find the volume. Students could also find the area of the sides or the perimeter. This activity could also be used when students do not understand the concept of volume. You could start the activity very slow with simply finding the volume of one cube and then gradually make the volumes more complex.
