Description
I created this activity as a math practice exercise for our elementary quiz bowl team. However, I have found that it is also a great way to introduce number talks as it eliminates the need to come up with the ideas themselves. Instead, they are tasked with thinking creatively as they attempt to match the numbers.
This set currently includes the following:
- 10 Number Sets
- Number Header
- Word Form
- Base Ten
- Money
- Time
- Scientific Notation
- Roman Numerals
- Addition
- Subtraction
- Mixed Operations
- Expanded Form
- Misc.
- Answer Sheets
- Hint Sheets
You can use as many or as few of the different formats as you would like depending on your desired duration and difficulty levels for the activity. You can also color code the different number types to give a visual clue to each set (i.e. if one number has too much of a given color, students should realize they need to adjust their thinking and error check). It is completely up to you!
