Description
Transform math practice into an exciting, interactive competition! In Boards Up, students work in pairs to solve timed math challenges displayed on a big screen, using whiteboards to write their answers. It is frustration-free (pairs don't compete against each other) and all in one website.
How It Works:
- Setup: Equip every pair of students with whiteboards, markers, and erasers. Alternatives can be cardboards in plastic sleeves and napkins. Keep it simple.
- Rules: Pairs take turns solving problems, earning points for correct answers while avoiding penalties for peeking or talking to others.
- Game Flow: With a 1-2 minute timer, students solve a problem and can attempt extra credit. Class scores are recorded based on the number of correct answers from class.
- Rewards: Motivate your class with tiered prizes based on the class score achieved.
Built-in features include:
β’ Whole-class scoreboard
β’ Teacher-set problem counts by difficulty (Easy β Medium β Hard sequence)
β’ Prize tier tracker (Base / Deluxe / Champion) with reward labels you choose
β’ Optional extra credit question each round
β’ 2-minute timer with time-up sound
β’ Answer reveal with Spacebar
β’ Full answer key to all questions
Perfect for math review days, end-of-unit practice, test prep, sub plans, or high-energy classroom competitions, G7 Math Boards Up saves planning time while keeping students actively solving and engaged as a team.
