      Expansion: This doesn't just have to be for first grade.  Second graders can add the full clock face to practice telling time to the nearest five minutes.  Time cards can be made so that in pairs, students can give each other random times to display on their clocks and check with each other.

      ENL: Telling time is also difficult for ENL students.  Pair work and cooperative discussion will help them build their time vocabulary.

      Expansion: This could be done both inside and outside.  Students could begin with objects in their desks and discuss their comparisons with their peers, allowing for more communication.

      ENL: ENL students can work with peers who can help them translate and understand description concepts.  Practicing describing vocabulary is useful not just for their math understanding, but for their understanding of English.

    In this simple and social activity, children use size comparison skills to find objects in nature that are bigger, smaller, longer, shorter, taller, wider, and narrower. These concepts are not only important for kindergarten math, they also encourage children to become better scientific observers. So find a space to roam-a sandy beach, a wooded park, or a lakeside shore, all offer ample materials to help your child understand size comparison words.

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