FREE MATH LESSON – “Christmas Place Value 100s Chart Mystery Picture Activity Freebie”

by Kiddos and Crayons by Jordan Piacenti

1st – 2nd Grade

 

 

Practice place value with a fun Christmas themed puzzle. Students will practice place value by identifying numbers through base ten blocks, expanded form and tens and ones on their answer sheets. Then, they use their answers to color a 100s chart to reveal the mystery picture (santa).

Each worksheet shows a two digit number in either expanded form, word form (i.e. 6 tens and 5 ones) or as picture of tens and ones blocks. After students solve the problem and write the correct number on their worksheet, they find the number on a blank 100s chart and color it a specified color. When they are done they will have revealed a fun mystery picture.

This activity works great as a math center or a fast finisher. It can also be used as a whole group listening activity by having the teacher call out the number of tens and ones for each problem.

FREE Math Station Planning Guide

This entry was posted in 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade MATH LESSONS on by (updated on )

 

Looking for a quick tool to help manage your math station prep work? 
Using math stations in the classroom is an excellent way to engage students and review skills at the same time. In fact, once organized, math stations can become a classroom routine that organizes and manages itself.

 

This station planning guide can be used to determine which stations will be used, what task to include for each, and what materials are needed. This tool can be kept with your lesson plans for the week so that you have it as a reference during weekly planning.

Free Boneyard Numbers Game

This entry was posted in 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade FREE LESSONS MATH LESSONS on by (updated on )
Looking for a fun game involving dominoes and the order of operations? 
Have you ever used dominoes in your classroom? Dominoes are one of those versatile tools
that have many purposes. Dominoes are generally not a standard math tool, but
they are great to have laying around. If you don’t have any in your classroom,
you can pick-up a cheap set at the dollar store.
The activity I am sharing with you today is called “Boneyard Numbers.” The basic idea is
that students turn over two dominoes and use the quantities on the dominoes to create
a number sentence that targets one of the uncovered quantities on the game
board.
 
The best thing about this activity is that it can be adapted to meet the needs of all
students! Whether a student just adds everything together or goes out on a limb
and tries to use all of the operations, the activity can meet his or her
ability level. “Boneyard Numbers” makes a great station and fast finisher
activity.

FREE MATH LESSON – “FREE Math Counting How Many More To Make Ten? Pilgrim Color Version”

This entry was posted in 1st Grade Kindergarten MATH LESSONS PreKindergarten Thanksgiving and tagged free on by (updated on )

by Learning Harbor Resources for Teachers

Pre-Kindergarten – 1st Grade

 

 

This task card activity provides counting and fine motor skill practice at the same time. A student looks at the number of objects that the character is holding, then he counts on to see how many more are needed to make ten. The student can mark his answers by clipping a clothes pin onto the answer, by covering the answer with a mini eraser, button, or any small game markers that you have in your classroom. I suggest laminating the cards for durability. If the cards are laminated, the students can circle the correct answer with a wipe off marker or crayon. To make the cards self-correcting put a small sticker or draw a star over the correct answer on the back of the card.

This entry was posted in 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade 6th Grade 7th Grade 8th Grade CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT FREE LESSONS & PRICED LESSONS - The Best of Teacher Entrepreneurs HOME MATH LESSONS MISC. LESSONS on by (updated on )

Superhero Classroom Reward Cash/Bucks with Math Facts (You Can Label Your Money)

A unique idea for your classroom money! Many students inevitably fidget with things in the classroom. Why not give them math facts and examples to review at the same time? Implement an original classroom economy so that your students can learn while they earn!  

The $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 has it’s own color to go with it if you choose the color version. There are black and white versions to save on ink. Also, you can label the front and back of your money with the templates! See the editable version.

Included in this resource:

✓ $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 Class Cash in Color (4 Choices)

✓ $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 Class Cash Black and White (5 Choices)

✓ Math examples and facts for back side of cash (22 Pages for differentiation) 

✓ Classroom Pay and Deductions Scale/Classroom Store

✓ Label your money Editable template with tips

✓ Wallet

✓ Reward Coupons with Editable Template included as a bonus!

YOU MUST HAVE POWERPOINT TO EDIT

Clip art and background cannot be edited.  

Included math examples are addition, subtraction, and multiplication facts, place value (standard form, word form, short word form, expanded form, expanded notation, digit value, rounding, and decimal expanded form,), and scientific notation. With the different grade level math examples, you can differentiate for a diverse class or use the math examples specific to your grade.

I use the class money for job payment and positive reinforcement. The kiddos love it when I give money for exemplary behavior. And it will set a positive tone in the classroom. Students will take ownership in the classroom. Every minute in the classroom counts!

Happy Teaching!

Free Open-Ended Questions for Accountable Math Talk

This entry was posted in 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade 6th Grade MATH LESSONS on by (updated on )
Looking for questions to support students during math talk? 
Questioning is one of the most powerful instructional strategies we can use in the classroom! In fact, NCTM’s Principles to Actions (2014) states that effective teachers use “purposeful questions to assess and advance students’ reasoning and sense-making about important mathematical ideas and relationships” (p. 35). However, creating an environment where students are able to respond to questions and effectively use math talk during a classroom discussion can be challenging. Many of our students do not know how to discuss their mathematical ideas and strategies using key math vocabulary and concepts. As teachers, we play an important role as we help students identify their thinking processes and build new knowledge by connecting to ideas and concepts that they already understand. Choosing the right questions is an essential part of this process. Read more about using questions and building effective math talk practices here.

Free Number Sense Tiling Task

This entry was posted in 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade FREE LESSONS MATH LESSONS on by (updated on )
Looking for a number sense building, critical thinking activity? 
With the challenges of today’s math curriculum, we do not always have time for a consistent focus on critical thinking. Using tiling tasks in the classroom is one strategy that can offer you an opportunity to increase the critical thinking skills of your students. These tasks involve using number tiles, a set of numbered tiles 0-9, to complete a set of problems. Each tile belongs to one space and only one space. Students use their reasoning skills to complete the task cards. Tiling task cards also make great menu activities or fast finisher challenges.

How to Talk to Parents and Keep them on Your Side

One of the main things I realized, after years of teaching, is that parents need you to care about their child, they want you to make their learning experience interesting, challenging and fun. The best way to do this is to make sure their little one knows that you are there to listen, and support them with positive reinforcement and encouragement

2. Provide each pair with a number cube (die).
3. Provide each pair with a concept-based word problem or multiple-choice item.
4. Partner A rolls the number cube and then uses the Rock and Roll activity page to determine which task to complete.
5. Partner B completes the activity indicated on the number cube using the word problem or multiple-choice item.
6. If Partner A does not understand Partner B’s response, Partner A should ask clarifying questions until the response is understood.
7. Pairs should continue alternating rolls until all of the tasks have been completed or for the allotted amount of time.
8. As a class, have pairs discuss their responses to each of the tasks. Be sure to highlight any responses which reveal essential understandings or new strategies.
9. Begin the process again with a new problem if available. (Note: Sometimes, one well-developed question is more effective than several basic ones. Be sure to choose a task that will give you the most bang for your buck.)

FREE MATH LESSON – “Multiplication of Multi Digit Numbers {FREEBIE}”

This entry was posted in 4th Grade 5th Grade MATH LESSONS and tagged free on by (updated on )

by Katie Jones

4th – 5th Grade

 

 

MAFS 5.NBT.2.5
Common Core 5.NBT.5 

Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

This product comes with the learning goal and scale. I’ve included a version with the common core standard and a version with the MAFS standard. There are 32 task cards for you to use in your student engaged classroom. The answer key is provided.

Task cards can be used for a variety of purposes, such as: 
1. cut apart and insert into academic notebooks for students to solve
2. exit slips
3. place in a learning center for students to practice while you meet with other students for differentiated instruction
4. Scoot!

Scoot! Directions: Place the cards around the classroom. Each student (or pair of students) start at a different card and solves the problem. The student records the answer on their paper. When the appropriate amount of time has passed (dependent on skill), signal for the students to rotate to the next card in numerical order. I like to use music to signal movement. Students continue to rotate around the classroom solving each problem. This is a great review activity to engage students and use movement in your classroom.

This produce is geared toward 5th grade standards. It could be used as enrichment in 4th grade or as an intervention tool in middle school.

Free Math Talk Moves Poster

This entry was posted in 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade 6th Grade 7th Grade 8th Grade MATH LESSONS on by (updated on )

Using mathematical discussions in the classroom is a powerful way to increase our students’ critical thinking and communication skills. Effective communication about mathematics is essential to help students develop the thinking, self-questioning, and explanation skills needed to master required skills and concepts. 
A successful mathematics program emphasizes communicating mathematically frequently in the classroom. In fact, most state standards include competencies related to communicating effectively through mathematical language, justifying solutions, and evaluating the mathematical thinking of others. 
“Math Talk Moves” are moves made by the student during math talk in the classroom. Teachers can use the moves to teach students how to make connections and respond to others during a discussion of math problems.

FREE MATH LESSON – “Witchly Combinations”

This entry was posted in 1st Grade Halloween Kindergarten MATH LESSONS and tagged free on by (updated on )

by KinderKay

Kindergarten – 1st Grade

 

 

This is a fun Halloween game to practice beginning math concepts. There are 2 levels. In Level 1, students use Domino dot cards with number combinations from 1 – 6. Students pick a card, add the dots on the card, and cover the sum on their mat. Then they write the number combination on their recording sheet. Play continues until all numbers have been covered. This works best as an individual game, but can be adapted to partners.

In Level 2, students use 2 dice and record number combinations just as in Level 1.

K.OA.3 Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 = 2 + 3 and 5 = 4 + 1)

ELA/Writing; Grades 7-10

This three-passage text set is accompanied by an informational prompt regarding the topic of skydiving. It’s a perfect assignment to engage typically apathetic students, as well as those students who are typically successful in your classroom, while still relying on the skills of using the information in the text set.  Modeled after AIR Testing, which is used in numerous states across the country, it would also fit well into a PARCC simulation. The text set, itself, is 5 pages long.
