  • Greater Than Less Than Alligator Math
  • I taught my kids that the alligator is greedy and always wants to eat the bigger number.

      1.NBT.3 Compare two two-digit numbers based on meanings of the tens and ones digits, recording the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, and <.

      This activity is a great reinforcer for older students who struggle with the concept of greater than and less than, not just kindergarteners and first-graders.  The alligator analogy could really help struggling students to grasp this concept because it serves as a mnemonic device to help them to remember what the sign means.

      MA.1.1.3 2000 Identify the number of tens and ones in numbers less than 100. MA.1.1.4 2000 Name the number that is one more than or one less than any number up to 100. MA.2.1.3 2000 Identify numbers up to 100 in various combinations of tens and ones. MA.2.1.4 2000 Name the number that is ten more or ten less than any number 10 through 90. Extension: Teacher can incorporate base 10 into calender time.  The teacher can represent the date with the correct amount of base 10 unifix cubes and the correct amount of single cubes  Adaption: Students that struggle with drawing 10 blocks can use unifix cubes to represent a set of 10

      5.MD.1 Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems.

      Although I really like how this activity involves all aspects of trip planning, it could be adapted for less-advanced students by simply having them measure rather than calculate out travel time.  Students could still come up with the total distance, but travel time could be turned into a group activity that the class and teacher solve together until students become more confident in their abilities.

    A more advanced activity which uses maps and measurements and incorporates multiplication and calculation of travel time.  This activity is a great application of real-world skills!

Lesson Plans: Multiplication War (all, Mathematics) - 1 views

  • Multiplication War

      4.OA.1 Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison

      This activity could be adapted so that rather than individual students playing against each other, groups could play the game competitively.  This would take pressure off of those students who are not as fluent in their math facts as others.  It also makes it less stressful for individual students.

      1.NBT.1 Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.

      3.MD.1 Tell and write time to the nearest minute and measure time intervals in minutes. Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, e.g., by representing the problem on a number line diagram.

      This activity lends itself naturally to children who may not grasp the concept very well because it allows them to work in groups.  Heterogeneous grouping for this activity would allow everyone to work together in a fun, non-competitive environment.  The worksheet could be adapted for ELLs by including pictures or changing the wording to simpler words.  I found the wording of the activity sheet to be a little advanced for the age group in general, so ELLs would have particular trouble with it.  Also, it never hurts to read the activity sheet aloud before asking the studnets to fill it out.

      MA.2.1.12 2000 Represent compare, and interpret data using tables, tally charts, and bar graphs  MA.2.2.2 2000  Add two whole numbers less than 100 with and without regrouping  MA.3.1.1 2000  Count, read, and write whole numbers up to 1,000 Extension: The following week, students can use the board and unifix cubes for regrouping when subtracting numbers under 100 or 1000 depending on the grade level.  Adaption: Students who have trouble engaging the activity, can perform the same task through a computer program.  This may hold the students attention longer and allow them to focus because they are working indivdually and away from a group (for those that get distracted by others easily) and the students other senses (sound, and touch)  are engaged when on the computer allowing for more opportunities to understand and engage in the lesson.
