Description
Fractions on a number line - notes and practice are more engaging with this creative, colorful note-taking format for 3rd grade math!
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) Fraction (key terms)
2) 3rds on a number line
3) 4ths
4) 6ths
5) 8ths
This resource includes:
1) FOUR versions of the student 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, or number line labels, since part of the process is labeling the number line)
- Pre-filled notes #2 (this one DOES include labeled number lines in case a student needs the labels; in this case, students can still mark the number lines in the 6th and 8th sections)
⭐️EACH version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~you can add text to make your own math wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
1) Notes sections and examples with detailed ideas/notes for instruction
- Each section of the wheel includes a number line (or two) with fraction strips above them, to help connect fractions of shapes and fractions on number lines
2) Guided or independent practice: 12 number lines in the pattern around the circle
- Students will name the fraction that’s labeled with a point, OR label the given fraction on the number line.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows
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:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"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!"
