Description
Multiplication notes are more engaging with this creative but structured math wheel note-taking format!
- Students take notes, use color to help with memory, and complete practice problems found around the wheel.
What is a math wheel? It's a graphic organizer where students can:
- 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
Students can keep the math wheels in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart/reference sheet.
Sections of the Multiplication Math Wheel include:
1) Multiplying: includes key terms (factors, product and estimate)
2) Place Values: shows 364 x 3, using models of hundreds, tens, and ones
3) Area Models: shows how to use the area models to multiply by one or 2-digit numbers
4) Write equations: this section uses the distributive property to show the factors broken into place values and multiplied by the other factor, as equations
- The same problems are used as the other sections, to show another way to solve the same problems
5) Practice: this section has a few practice problems that you can use as you’d like. You can use this section to:
- Have students write an explanation for their solutions
- Practice using area models or equations
- Write out the partial products as a step toward the standard algorithm
- Or even introduce the standard algorithm.
This easy-prep multiplication resource includes:
1) THREE versions of student wheel
- 'Open’ notes for students to add all notes & examples
- Fill-in notes: helps control uses of space
- Pre-filled notes for absentees or students who need pre-filled. Answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this wheel.
⭐️Each version comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher key/wheel 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 wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use multiplication resource:
1) Notes sections and examples
2) Guided or independent practice: 10 problems in the pattern around the circle
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color 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:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"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!"
