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!

  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.

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.

How to Calculate Pi by Throwing Frozen Hot Dogs - 1 views

  The math in this activity is not too challenging but it requires the students to be precise in their data collection to see good results. It meets the goals of the CCSS for 6th grade math that students "Attend to precision" and "look for and make use of structure". Gifted students might be interested in the information about the Buffon Needle Problem, link found in the "Tips" section. To extend the lesson students could consider what changes could be made to the lesson to improve the accuracy of its approximation of pi.

This is a fun activity that gets students up and moving around and can show them how math is a part of the world in surprising ways.

  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.
