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.

      For differentiation, students may need personal assistance to stay focused, but activity does a good job incorporating kinesthetic and visual learning strategies to help ensure success.

      Game does not need much change for differentiation. It offers good visual and kinesthetic learning opportunities for every student. If you notice a child struggling the game can be altered to help them succeed easily.

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

    • William Templeton
       
      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.

Survey Says... - 1 views

      This lesson offers a great chance to work with a writing lesson.  Students can learn how the wording of their questions might affect the answers they receive.  This could then spawn another lesson in critical thinking about how real surveys done by groups might be biased to their preconceived ideas.  Working in groups would allow students of various ability levels and learning styles to all contribute to the group.

      This activity can be adjusted to different number patterns. Instead of counting by 10's you could count by any number such as by 5's or 3's. For the ELLs in your classroom you could use cereals from their home countries so they would have a home connection to the classroom. You could also turn this activity into a patterning one where the students create patterns based on cereal type and/or colors.
  •  
    Students use rainbow-colored "o" cereal to create a necklace that counts by 10 to 100.

      For students who understand the concpet easily you can intorduce multiplication and division in the problems. For these students you could even have them create their own problems. For students who are farther behind you could make the game easier by using smaller numbers or put students into groups to work together. For ELLs write the actual symbol (+, -) instead of writing add and subtract.

Dividing by Fractions ... with Graham Crackers! | Education.com - 2 views

    • Amanda McCarthy
       
      Students can work in pairs to help understand the concept. For students who are farther behind or are ELLs the teacher could model the activity with the students so they would be able to follow along easily. For the students who are more advanced you could ask them to figure out the fractions on their own or try doing harder division with two fractions instead of just one fraction and a whole number.
  •  
    This activity helps show students how to divide whole numbers by fractions using graham crackers.

Math Activities Addition Mission - 1 views

  • 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.
