Calendar Math for Grades 1-3: SMARTBoard Version

Calendar Math Routine for Grades 1-3- SMARTBoard Version

After the past two years or remote, hybrid, and interrupted learning, spiral review of Common Core math skills will be more important than ever this year! My SMARTBoard Calendar Math routine for grades 1-3 gives you SO many options for math routines to incorporate into your morning meeting/calendar time. And because it's a SMARTBoard file, it doesn't take up any space on your classroom wall! With almost 20 math routines, this resource is an engaging and interactive way to give students regular and repeated practice with a wide variety of key math concepts and vocabulary in just 15 minutes a day. This one file grows with your students, and can be customized and used every day all year long for less than $0.07 a day!

**IMPORTANT! Please note that you must have an actual SMART brand interactive whiteboard to use this product, as it is created with Smart Notebook software. It will likely NOT work with other brands of boards. If you are unsure if your software is compatible, download the SMARTBoard Test File to make sure you can open it and it is interactive.

Read what customers are saying about this resource.

"This is just what I needed for remote learning. My students loved it. Easy to use, interactive, and colorful. Thank you!"- Diana N.

"Great resource with lots of available math skills to practice. After sufficient training, students were able to "take over" this resource and lead with very little teacher interaction."- Annette S.

"This resource was perfect for my first graders. I love that you can continue to use it and let it "grow" as students gain more skills such as fact families and expanded notation. I'm thrilled that I can use it now and add to it as we progress through the year." -Andrea M.

Start out small, with just a few pages, and add more as your students learn the routines. The file gets saved every day because many of the elements build on the previous day’s content. Students love to use the SMARTboard, and this gives them many opportunities to touch, drag, move, or write on the board. It is colorful, engaging, and fun! Check out my detailed preview file.

There are digital and printable recording sheets that students can complete, as well as free Seesaw activity templates that are now included with your purchase! Choose the one that works for you and the needs of your class.
