This print-and-go activity is a great way to integrate music into your math curriculum! The skills covered are place value, extended multiplication, comparing larger numbers, rounding, estimating products, and estimating sums.

There are 2 different ways to use this fun math activity.

Directions for Musical Math Mingle Option 1

1. Place a worksheet on each student’s desk.

2. Have students stand. Play some music as students walk around the room.

3. When the music stops, students grab a seat and work on the worksheet that is on that desk. Problems can be completed in any order. Students write their initials in the little box after completing a problem.

4. After a few minutes, play music again as a signal for students to stop working and walk about the room. Students grab a different seat when the music stops and work on the problems again. Repeat several times until all the worksheets on all desks are complete.

(If students happen to get a worksheet that is complete, they can use their turn to check answers and correct if necessary.)

5. Direct students to return to their own seats.

6. Review answers.
