Description
Rounding numbers rules are more engaging with this creative but structured note-taking format!
- Students take notes, use color to help with memory, and complete practice problems found around the math wheel.
What is a math wheel? A math doodle wheel is 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 charts/reference sheets.
- The math wheels are excellent for teaching and reviewing concepts and are great as intervention tools. You can even enlarge them to use as classroom anchor charts.
The sections of the Rounding Whole Numbers Wheel include:
1) What is rounding?
2) Round up when…: this section uses number lines to help develop the concept
3) Round down when… : this section also uses number lines
4) Rounding steps
5) Rounding steps (cont’d)
This easy-prep rounding whole numbers 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) Work page with number lines (and the practice problems from around the circle) in case you want students to have number lines to refer to when they complete the practice
3) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
4) Colored sample of wheel
5) 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 rounding whole numbers resource:
1) Notes sections and examples
2) Guided or independent practice: 12 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!"
