Place Value- Ideas for Teaching, Resources for Lesson Plans, and Activities for Unit Planning - 1 views

      This game can be differentiated by grouping students (7 cards, six cards, five cards) and they can earn a certificate when they demonstrate they are ready to move up to a new group.  This is a great way to reinforce skills and also assess students' progress.

      Game can be modified to include rounding to the nearest ten, hundred, etc.

      For differentiated learning, have sections of students competing.  Some could compete at the seven card level, others at six, and others at five.  As they "pass" each level, they earn a certificate entitling them to compete at the next level.  Great way to improve skills and assess progress!
  • place value game Posted by:Tonda #62793 Not only do my third graders know place value, they beg to play this game. On long strips of paper I made place value charts, making sure the commas were in place and writing the words (ones, tens, hundreds, etc.) under the blank line where a number will be placed. Laminate. With a partner and a deck of cards the children shuffle the deck and then pass out the predetermined number of cards according to how far you want them to learn place value. Hundred thousands would be 6 cards, millions 7 cards, 10 millions 8 cards, etc. Cards are face down in a pile. Face cards equal 1, aces are 0, and everything else what they say. They are trying to make the largest number possible to win (or smallest). Both players turn over a card at the same time and decide where to place it. Once placed it must stay there....

    This is a GREAT game idea to reinforce place value.  FANTASTIC!  Kids love games. Easy and inexpensive to make.  You need paper (laminate finished product) and decks of cards.  Can be independent learning, homework, or station time with students.

      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.

      Extensions: This activity can connect Science to LA using a writing prompt. Adaptations:  Gifted students can write a short essay on how an animal can use a tool to solve a problem.  Teacher would allow time for research (tool-using animals at PBS.org).  ESL & Special Ed students can draw a picture of an animal using a tool to solve a problem.  Teacher would pair up students for the research phase.

    Crow Creativity: 5th Grade / Can you solve a problem as creatively as a crow?  Download PDF 1. Build a tricky tube puzzle to find out if your friends can solve a problem like a crow. A clear plastic tube is best, but a paper towel roll, cut down to about 8 inches, will work too. 2. Make a basket out of tin foil. The basket should be big enough to hold a small cookie. 3. Tear some strips off a roll of duct tape. Lay the roll of tape flat on a table and fit the tube inside the center of the duct tape roll. Then use the duct tape strips to tape the tube in place so that the tube stays upright. Tape along the side. Do not cover the openings of the tube in tape. 4. Put a cookie in your basket and drop the basket into the tube so it goes to the bottom of the tube with the handle facing up. 5. Place about 5 twist ties or a piece of long metal wire next to your tube. 6. Find a friend to solve this problem. Tell your friend that there is a cookie at the bottom of the tube. Your friend can have the cookie but has to get the cookie out of the tube first without lifting up the tube. If you are using a paper towel roll, let your friend look inside the tube to see how it's set up.  Supplies: See Downloadable PDF

    Upper elementary students to middle school students could create a trick tube or similar experiment that a friend or critter (squirrel) has to solve.

      Have students graph their measurements on a large collective classroom visual and make connections to the different objects. They could then remeasure the objects with either a different non-standard tool or a ruler and see if the same connections can be made. ie: The pencil is always twice as much as the crayon.

Practice Hula Hoop Times Tables! - 1 views

      3.OA.7 "Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers."

      I would use an activity like this to incorporate learning into a reward, for example, taking students outside for good behavior, test grades, etc. Keeping hula hoops on hand is an inexpensive way to incorporate physical activity into academic instruction.

    If you're finding it painful to get your child to practice math lessons learned throughout the school year and her skills are slipping, try this mental and physical multitasking game to get your child back into the swing of things. This physical coordination reinforcement activity uses a hula hoop to get the mental juices flowing. This game is fun with two or more players taking turns and keeping score, but can work just as well with one.
