Introduce Angles! | Education.com - 2 views

    • Susan Shonle
       
      Extension: This activity connects math to art. Adaptations: The gifted students can identify and draw an array of angles, perpendicular and parallel lines, rectangles, and triangles, in an artistic design on a large sheet of paper using the proper tools.  The ELL and Special Ed students can work in pairs or small groups to measure and identify angles, lines, shapes, and write down all of the examples on paper.

      You need to correlate this activity to a Common Core standard. Thoughtful ideas for adaptations!
  • To give your child further practice measuring, identifying and drawing these key terms, have her draw an array of angles, perpendicular and parallel lines, rectangles and triangles in an artistic design on a large sheet of paper using the proper tools.

Teaching Tables - Making learning times tables fun - 1 views

    • Krista Hirr
       
      By playing with simple math addition and subtraction problems, this game could be used for lower grade levels. And "higher" and "lower" level bingo cards could be made to differentiate between math abilities. A helper or even another student could run the "higher" group.

    Wonderful for any grade level. It all epends what kind of math you decide to use with this activity. You can use addition, subtration for the lower grades with lower numbers, and multiplication and division with higher numbers for higher grade levels.

    CCS: 6.EE.2 What I love about this game is that it explains the magc trick. Once you ahve them follow the instructions and they all get the answer that you told them they would get them hooked. Everyone always wants to know how you did that, and by explaining the steps you can introduce them to variables in a fun and captivating way.

Make Geometry Creatures! | Education.com - 3 views

    • Amanda McCarthy
       
      Even though this activity is mainly for 3rd and 4th grades it can be changed to work with every grade level K-6. For older grades you could change the activity to include a wider variety of shapes/concepts. For younger students you could use basic shapes and have them create a picture with them without writing the words. This activity could be linked to writing. Students could create a picture with their shapes and then write a story about their picture. You would be connecting langauge arts with math. For ELLs put them with a native English speaker and have the ELL make the picture but have the native English speaker write the words or story for the picture.
  •  
    Students create pictures using geometric shapes, they then will write down the shapes that they used. This puts puts math together with art.
  •  
    CCS:3.G.1 Great for learning the name of shapes. You can also incorporae following directions if you give tem steps to follow in making their creatures. You can also allow the stdents to be the leader in giving out directions to make the creatures.

      To differentiate: Add multiple dominoes to extend, and make more difficult the mental math process. Or allow students that are struggling to use paper and pencil to figure out the solutions.
  •  
    Domino Addition and Subtraction: Students make addition and subtraction problems with dominoes then have a partner solve them.

      2.MD.1 "Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes."
    • Mary Jo Mack
       
      Pair lower math students with higher math students when participating in this activity so that the higher students can provide guidance to the lower students if they have trouble navigating their game board.
  •  
    A deck of playing cards will determine your ant's pace in this measurement game! Draw a card to see what number you will use. Measure that amount of centimeters on your game board. Try to reach all of the locations on your board before the other "ants," and you'll win! This game creates a fun way to practice measuring, and your little "ant" will enjoy trying to reach the finish line before you!

Froggie Counting Game | Education.com - 1 views

    • Ashley Stewart
       
      K.CC.4 "Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality." This activity can be used with ELL students by having them simply count the spaces, rather than finding the matching number from the die. The gifted students can be given cards, rather than die, with simple math problems on them. The student would move their froggy to the number on the board that is the solution to their math problem. For example, if their card read "3 + 2", the child would move their froggy to the 5 space. This activity could be used with older grades by using the card concept, but using multiplication or division problems.
  •  
    Children roll a dice to advance their "froggy" to the next number. The first one to get the froggy in it's house at the end of the tray, wins!

Make My Day: Addition Style | Education.com - 1 views

  • Addition with 3-digit numbers has never been so fun! This activity uses a deck of cards to create addition problems and figure out sums. Start out playing with your child, and gradually allow him to solve problems more independently. You'll see his confidence with adding improve as he practices in a more engaging way. Soon enough, he'll be racing through the deck to create sums!

      Adaptations: This game can also be a subtraction game for gifted students.  ELL students will learn about science through looking at the pictures on the cards of different species of butterflies.  Special Ed students can play this game in pairs or small groups to help them with addition/subtraction. Extension: Use "The Natural World - playing card collection" to connect math with science. (i.e. butterflies of the world) This deck contains pictures of butterflies with the card numbers.

      You could combined with lesson with a lesson on graphing as well by asking students to record how many times each math sentence occurs and graphing the result.  Since you are essentially flipping coins you should get a nice bell curve.

Play Graphing Battleship | Education.com - 2 views

    • William Templeton
       
      Larger coordinate planes could be used for longer games.  Make sure to have the players compare their two graphs at the end, if they are different someone made a mistake.
  •  
    An easy way to practice coordinate pairs.
  •  
    Love this because it takes a subject like graphing algebraic equations and turns it into a fun battleship game. Great for in class partner work. Suggested only for 6th grade, possibly higher level 5th grade math.
  •  
    CCS: 5.G.1 Great way to learn the x an y axis coordinate planes. Can also have them make shapes in the coordinate planes instead of straightline battleships.
