Addition and Subtraction Strategies: This product includes pages dedicated to the many different addition and subtraction strategies that students can utilize. Students will add and subtract multi-digit numbers by using a number line, base-ten blocks, place value, partial-sums and the standard algorithm. Feel free to use this to reinforce all the different ways to add multiple numbers. Number Lines: This product includes sheets related to number lines. Students are asked to combine numbers a

This activity encourages students to approximate square roots. Students match the square root with the corresponding number. I've had students use this with partners as a brief review before an assessment.

Using number lines to teach addition and subtraction has always been in my tool box. This product includes a variety of number line addition problems that can challenge students in grades 1 - 3. I've used this product to differentiate instruction for students. Students need to show how they added the numbers together by placing the operations above each number line. Please see the free sample if you have any questions. An answer sheet with sample answers is provided. CCSS standards covered

My students love math games. Easily print out the cards, cut them out, shuffle and pass them out to your kids. This type of game works well in small groups where students have multiple cards to pick from. Enjoy!

Do you want a constructive way to teach students how to multiply and divide integers? If so, this might be just for you! Students complete the sheet and look for patterns. By analyzing the patterns they determine the rules are used when multiplying and dividing integers. When students determine the rules on their own they're more likely to remember them. I hope this works as well in your classroom as it does in mine. Enjoy!

Computation is everywhere! Being able put together and take apart numbers is heavily emphasized in elementary school. This is a math computation packet that can be used to prepare students for the new school year. The packet is segmented into three sections (computation strategies, number lines and an overall grades 2-4 math review. Feel free to use this packet as a pre-assessment/review before school starts. Who is this for? This packet is primarily designed to be completed by students in gra

This fraction activity can be used to help differentiate instruction in your classroom. There are two sets of fraction block master sheets. This set of fraction blocks is designed to have students count the squares and use them to compare the fraction blocks. Students can find equivalent fractions a bit easier using this model. The second set doesn’t include squares on each block. Students are expected to visualize and compare fractions without actual numbers. This can help students deve

Students will have a blast playing this computation practice game! This product includes all of the materials needed to have your students play an engaging game and reinforce multiplication and division strategies in the process. An answer sheet is included so students can check their answers as they play. Download, print, cut out and have students play the game in pairs or in groups. Enjoy!

Simply stated, this is a free computation practice sheet designed for second grade. Use as you see fit and enjoy! There is an answer sheet on the second page of the pdf.
