Description
Metric system and metric conversions are the focus of this engaging, colorful 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 type of 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 these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart or reference sheet.
- You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
The Metric Conversions Math Wheel sections include:
1) Metric System
2) Kilo -
3) Hecto -
4) Deka-
5) Unit (Meter, Liter, Gram)
6) Deci-
7) Centi -
8) Milli -
This metric measurement conversions resource includes:
1) THREE versions of the student wheel
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes (this version is most flexible, allowing you to phrase the notes as you’d like)
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, to help control student use of space
- Pre-filled notes; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
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 with the meaning of each prefix and the prefix added to each base unit, with the abbreviations
- Students can use the wheel to count the “jumps” from one unit to another when they convert.
- You could have students add practice problems in different sections of the wheel or background if you’d like.
2) Guided or independent practice: 8 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
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned backgrounds:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, center 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 this resource:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This was a great resource for my students to be introduced to converting units of measurement. They enjoyed the visual and it worked well with our interactive notebooks.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This will help my students a lot with the conversions. Thanks.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “It is a great way for my EAL learners to see how the prefixes all interrelate with each other! Thanks!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I enjoyed using this with my 6th/7th graders. It helps to have a visual to place in their interactive math journal.”
