Today I knew I had to design something with these precious crayons!
So today I made these addition and
subtraction word problem operation sort. I can already see myself using it
during tutoring or Saturday school! And I just love those little crayon by
Krista Wallden!
If you're needing some multiplication
word problems for next year, take a look at these! They're two digit by one
digit. These task cards are designed for around the room math!
This set of cards is a self-checking set.
That means that once students solve the problem, they look for the apple that
has the product they found.That is
the next word problem they solve. Then they find the apple that has that
product and so on. They will know they are done when they get all the way back
to the card they started at. This is one circle of problem solving, so students
could start at any problem, and they would still finish at their first
card.
A little more about around the room
math:
I'm not sure if everyone does this, but
my team used this idea a lot! Around the room math is great because it involves
independent thinking, practicing the skill, physical movement and
differentiation. Students can move at their own pace. When I do around the room
math in my classroom, I often have some kids working with a partner and others
working independently. You can also make mental notes about when to check in
with students. If Johnny has a problem with multistep problems, when I see he
is at the multistep problem, I know I need to check in with him. It's also a
great time to introduce a challenge problem! While students are working on the
cards around the room, you can call students over for a challenge, or even
reteach. The possibilities are endless!
