Absolute Value Worksheets: Real-Life Problem Solving Absolute Value 5th 6th 7th
Here's a ready-to-go handout and 2-page worksheet that shows students eight real-life math word problems that use absolute value. From measuring temperatures, to doing DIY projects, to playing golf, we actually use absolute value quite regularly! This is a great absolute value or integer activity to add to your Number System math unit in 5th, 6th, or 7th grade.

Hands On Map Skills: Cross Curricular Project to Teach Map Skills (Grades 2-4)

Coin Values: Counting by Sight and Touch
This is a fun project for helping students learn the value of coins. My students enjoyed sliding their fingers from the coin to the end of the ribbon or string while counting the number of attachments to the coin which in turn, helped them learn the value of different coins. Other variations such as tracing each line with finger paint or placing bead on the end of each string can also be fun.
