Description
Comparing fractions for 3rd grade math - guided notes and practice are more engaging with this creative but structured note-taking format!
What is a math doodle wheel? It's a type of graphic organizer where students:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern, if desired
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart/reference sheet.
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as classroom posters or anchor charts!
The sections of this math wheel include:
1) <, >, =
2) If Same Numerator
3) If Same Denominator
4) Practice
This resource includes:
1) THREE versions of student math wheel
- ‘Open’ notes for students to fill in
- Fill-in notes to help control amount of space students use
- Pre-filled notes (this does not include examples/answers)
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in background.
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Work page with models for the practice problems in case it's needed.
4) Colored sample of wheel
5) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~ you can add text to make your own wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
1) Notes sections and examples (notes are suggestions, and you can alter them on the ‘open’ version if you want to)
2) Guided or independent practice: 12 problems in the pattern around the circle
- You could assign a color code for these problems, for easy checking, having students color > one color and < another.
- A separate ‘work’ page is included, with fraction models for the 12 practice problems. This can be used for all students if you’d like, or just for students that need more visual support.
- You can also give students the option of drawing their own models next to the practice problems on the wheel, to see how they do with drawing their own visuals.
- Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the rest of the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows, however they like.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide:-)
What teachers are saying about math wheels in general:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"These Math Doodle Wheel are interactive, engaging, and great to use with student notebooks! And I love the scaffolded versions - great to use for students with accommodations!"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"Taking notes used to be something challenging for my students. The resource engages ALL of my students as they all ask to color code everything. When I teach a new math skill, my students automatically ask if they can get a math doodle wheel to take notes in."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"My students absolutely love using the wheel as notes. It makes it easy for them to find the information when they need it and they can kind of doodle as a writing so they don’t get bored."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"I love these math wheels!! I love using guided notes and these are fun and easy to use. The kids really like them and actually use them and refer back to them. Totally worth the money and a time saver!"
