      Expansion: As suggested by the activity, this can be used to add and subtract negative numbers, as well as more complex equations.

      ENL: Practice and communication with peers will help ENL students understand the concepts of variables.  When paired with a peer who can translate, this allows for a peer to help them with the game.

    Games are a great way to ease your fifth grader's fear of new math concepts. Kids are always more willing to attempt a new skill when it's presented in a fun, non-threatening way! "The Amazing Equation Race" is an interactive, fast-paced game that will make your child feel more comfortable with simple equations. Although the terms "variable" and "equation" are unfamiliar now, a few rounds will turn them into household names.

      MA.6.3.1 2000 Write and solve one-step linear equations and inequalities in one variable and check the answers. Extension: The following day, the teacher can have students graph the linear equations on the tic-tac-toe board on graph paper.   Adaptation: Students who struggle can use one-step linear inequality equation boards and students who are excelling in this area can use multiple step linear inequality equation boards.

      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.

    The classic card game, war, is adapted to multiplication practice.

  • For younger children, you could have one of each number card with 55 snowballs to match the number cards 0-10.
  • For the activity, I would have the child choose two number cards, placing the larger number in the space to the left. Then he or she could count out the correct number of snowflakes to place above the minuend as in the photo.As the child counts out the correct number for the subtrahend, he or she could count out and move that number of snowflakes to the area above the subtrahend. After taking away those snowflakes, the child could then count out the snowflakes left and place the number card with the difference in the last space. Continue creating and solving subtraction equations as long as the child is interested.

      Adaptations for younger children also work for those students who are not working at the same level as the others in their class, but are not necessarily younger.

      This activity could be adapted for struggling students by giving them less advanced story problems with easier to spot unnecessary information.  More advanced students could be given more detailed story problems.  Struggling students could also be given story problems with some of the unnecessary information already crossed out and some of the valuable information pre-underlined, giving them a head start

      4.OA.3 Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.

    Good advice for teaching kids how to solve story problems.

      CCSS.Math.Content.3.OA.A.3 Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem

      This activity is great for students who are struggling with the concept of division. The activity is especially helpful for students who need to visualize the statement before properly solving the problem. Again, these visual representations will make it easier for ELL and low performing English students to understand the concepts behind division. It could be extended by having students determine the number sentence from a story problem.

    Students understand concept of division through repeated subtraction on these strips of paper.
