Math practice is still much needed in classrooms. However, it doesn't have to be stacks of worksheets. And it doesn't always have to be a complicated, high-prep game. These Roll and Answer math activities are an easy way to spice up much-needed math practice.

Put simply, the students roll two dice and add the amount shown. They find that amount on the page and solve that problem or answer that question.

You have the ability to keep them as simple as that or you can be more creative.

Here are two easy ideas for using these practice activities:

•Independent practice that is a bit more engaging than a worksheet

•Partner practice that allows students to work together to earn “points”

If you are familiar with BUMP and want a bit more gamification, you can use this as a BUMP game instead.

About the Digital Math Activities

The Roll and Answer math activities are also included in a digital version for use with Google Slides™.

The students use virtual dice (linked on the slides) to determine which question or task they will answer. A tutorial is included for students to help them use the virtual dice.

There are two options for directions: one for independent student use and one for partner use.

Digital recording sheets and self-checking answer keys are included. The self-checking answer keys can be deleted if you do not want the students to self- check their work.

The digital math activities can be used for math centers, digital math practice, partner activities, or even digital distance learning.

Please see the video preview to see how the digital math activities work.
