Description

How do you introduce multiplicative comparison to students?

This set of 32 task cards introduces students to the idea of multiplicative comparison by getting them to think about the relationships between familiar math manipulatives- pattern blocks!

Students will compare the areas of various pattern block shapes to determine how many times greater or how many times fewer one is to the other.

Students will use the included record sheet to ensure participation and accountability!

Use these task cards in a station, a basket for
early finishers, as a homework alternative, or as a seat scoot activity!
