How I Use This Resource
Interactive Google Slides Presentation & Notes:
I use the Student Notes to accompany the Interactive Google Slides presentation. The notes follow along the presentation to make it easy for students to fill in the vocabulary definitions and complete the examples. All answers appear when clicking on the presentation when it is in slideshow mode. This works well as a whole class activity or small group work.
Following the presentation and notes, I used the Self-Checking Mystery Riddle to assess student understanding of the concepts.
Self-Checking Mystery Riddle Activity:
Following the presentation and notes, I have students complete the mystery riddle to check for understanding. There are 16 questions similar to the examples completed during the lesson.
Students simply need to type their answer into the answer box. Each question immediately enables students to know if their answer is correct by turning green or red. If the answer is correct, the box will turn green and part of the mystery picture will appear. If the answer is incorrect, the box will turn red and students need to try again. Upon completion of all 16 questions, students will have the answer to the riddle in the revealed picture.
IMPORTANT DIRECTIONS:
When typing in answers, it is important that students follow these directions:
- Abbreviate labels (feet = ft, meters = m, inches = in.).
- Type area labels as “sq.” units (example: sq. in.)
- Dimensions example: 5 in. by 5 in.
**The answer key shows how to correctly type answers.
I have used this activity as both an in-class activity during stations or centers or as a homework assignment to check for understanding of a concept. Student always enjoy them.
This activity uses Google Slides . Please keep in mind that students will each need their own copy of the digital activity. There are several ways to do this depending on the technology at your school.
I also provided a student work page. This can be used if you decide to have students complete this as an outside of school assignment and a student does not have Internet access. Some of my students prefer to have the questions on paper as well, so I always provide both options. I encourage students to use this paper to show their work and record their answers.
Getting Started:
1. Print 1 copy per student of the Student Notes (front and back).
2. Print 1 copy per student of the Student Work Page for the Mystery Riddle Activity.
3. Use the presentation to introduce/review squares and square roots with students. Students will complete the notes and examples during the presentation. Remember that answers for the notes will appear when clicking in “slideshow” mode in the presentation.
4. Check for understanding of the concepts. Share the digital activity with students so that they each have their own copy and let the fun begin!
