This package is filled with 45 different Math Boggle Boards! There are 4 boards for the months of September-May.

We are working on different ways of telling time to the nearest 5 minute mark. I created this little match up game for my Guided Math Group. At my Guided Math Table, students work together to make a "Time Clock S'more". They will use the pieces to match up the digital, analogue, and written time. In the written time cards, I have used more common "time language" such as "a quarter past..." or "half past..." as those are some of the concepts our math curriculum focuses on. After printing, la

I created this for some extra practice for my students after introducing division. You can of course pick how you'd like to use the cards and recording sheet; however, I had my students pair up and had the cards places around the room on student desks. Prior to the activity, I placed 25 Cookie Crisp Cereal pieces into small snack size baggies for students to use as counters. Each student had a baggie and a recording form. Make sure to copy the recording form double sided. The students worke

Many schools have now hit Common Core hard! Through my Common Core Math Trainings, I have learned that Common Core math holds much emphasis on math vocabulary and writing to explain one’s thoughts. I thought it was necessary and imperative to create a quick center that allows students to practice these skills. How to Implement I love implementing Guided Math into my Math Block! However the key to success with Guided Math, is to provide fun content-related centers for the other students who

My district is encouraging implementing math talk into our classrooms. My students love to work out problems together. The best thing about it is that it turns my classroom into a student centered class where the students are explaining and listening to one another explain and rationalize their thinking. The words the students use with one another are very powerful because sometimes they are better at explaining specific math concepts that hearing it from me using "teacher language". Then, a
