Students will order 13 rational numbers in order from least to greatest. Students are given a snake template in which to order their numbers. This is an ideal activity for a quick formative assessment, warm-up, homework, or center activity. An answer key has been provided.

Magic Square puzzles provide a fun way for students to practice concepts. This magic square focuses on using long division to solve multi-digit whole number division problems. As students match the problems and solutions they will discover that it creates the shape of a pilgrim hat. This provides instant feedback for students and is easy for teachers to monitor as they move around the classroom. Magic squares are great for homework, classwork, substitute teachers, and math centers.

Set of 15 primary grades educational posters. Handwriting fonts used to ensure proper recognition and letter formation. Bright colors to help engage your learner and brighten up the learning environment. Each poster is created as a high resolution 8.5 x 11 printable PDF and can easily be scaled to an 8 x 10 size to fit a standard frame. Poster set includes: ~Alphabet and numbers ~Shapes ~Colors ~Sight Words ~Beginning Sounds ~Phonics ~Weather ~Seasons (2 Versions) ~Months of the Year (2 Version

Students will enjoy practice opposites and absolute values by playing a game with a partner. Students will be engaged in problem solving, explaining, and computation type problems as they play through the game board. All materials are included except a pencil and a paperclip. This activity is great for test and quiz reviews, math centers, family centered homework, and substitute teachers.

Provide your students with an extra opportunity to interact with the 6th grade common core vocabulary. This word wall has been organized by modules in the Go Math series. Within each module words are sorted into Review Words and New Words. Each page includes the vocabulary word and a colorful example.

A matrix is a great way to break down concepts and force students to work on them step by step. This matrix helps students identify whether they should find the GCF or the LCM of a set of numbers. It will help them understand the clues with in a real world problem that helps them identify which concept to use as well as help them decide which method they should use to find their solution. This matrix is perfect for individual homework, math centers, and small group work.

A matrix is a great activity to use to get students working more in depth with content. This matrix addresses One-Step Equations, Two-Step Equations, Equations that use the Distributive Property and One-Step Inequalities.

This activity provides a fun and quick way for students to practice identifying numbers and their opposites on a number line. Students are provided with number lines and directions on where to find their opposites on those number lines. Teachers will find it easy to check student progress and understanding quickly as they decode the message.This is a great activity for a quick warm-up review, a math center activity, or a short homework assignment.

This is a processing activity that uses 6 different types of questions to help student investigate and think about equations in different ways. The six types of questions as identified by McTighe and Wiggins include: Explanation, Application, Perspective, Self-Knowledge, Empathy, and Interpretation.

Honeycombs are a great way to reach the variety of learning styles in the classroom. Adapted from McTighe and Wiggin's book Understanding By Design it provides a question that touches six different question types: Explanation, Interpretation, Application, Perspective, Empathy, and Self Knowledge. Students will generally relate well with 3 of the 6 questions. In my class, I have them answer at least 4 so that they have to stretch themselves on at least one. These questions provide amazing pract

Games are a great way to engage learners in the required practice of concepts. In this game, students will practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions and mixed numbers. This game includes the game board, spinner, and directions all on one sheet making it easy to laminate and use over multiple periods or years. All you need to play the game is a paper clip to run the spinner. :)

Magic squares are a fun way to practice math concepts! In this magic square students are presented with fractions, decimals, and mixed numbers and are tasked with matching each to their equivalent a/b form resulting in a candy corn shape. Students are given immediate feedback on the accuracy of their work as they build the candy corn puzzle and teachers can easily monitor for misunderstandings as students work through the magic square. Magic squares are perfect for classwork, homework, or math c

A matrix is an excellent way for students to practice the steps involved in math problems. This matrix walks students step by step through the process of solving division problems involving mixed numbers. In each problem students are reminded to change mixed numbers into into improper fractions, skip, flip, and multiply, cross cancel, and simplify. Students will feel success at the completion of this assignment while cementing in the processes needed for future success. Teachers are able to quic

Honeycombs are a fantastic way to connect with different learning styles in your classrooms. There are six different types of questioning used in a honeycomb: Explanation, Application, Perspective, Self-Knowledge, Empathy, and Interpretation. Learners generally can relate easily to 3 of the 6 questions in the honeycomb with ease. In my classroom I have them answer any 4 of the 6 questions so they are stretching their learning with at least one of the questions. Honeycombs are great opportunities

A matrix is a great way to cement a process. Each problem requires students to work through and show work for each step in the process required to add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators. A matrix is a great activity to use as a review, homework, or warm-up.

Students can practice using GCF and LCM with these fraction problems while putting together a puzzle that results in the shape of a ghost. Students will get immediate feedback on their work as they piece the puzzle pieces together. Teachers will enjoy the ease of monitoring understanding as they watch the ghost take shape. Magic Square puzzles are a fun and engaging way to get conceptual practice into the day. NOTE: This puzzle only contains addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

This is activity is a fun way to practice finding the absolute value of numbers. Students will match absolute values with their solutions. This puzzle results in a picture of a school bus. The end results gives both students and teachers immediate feedback.

A matrix is a good way for students to practice skills in a step by step format. They are wonderful for cementing in mathematical routines. This matrix helps students practice dividing fractions while helping them to remember to skip, flip, and multiply, cross cancel, and simplify. This is the perfect activity for a quick warm-up, homework, classwork, or math center. Teachers will love the quick and easy progress monitoring this provides.

Students will enjoy practicing finding the prime factorization of numbers as they race towards the finish line in this game. Game board, game cards, and spinner included with download.
