Creating Learning Teaching

Great handout you can use to provide your students with practice finding rules from input output tables. Each page increases in difficulty to gradually scaffold students to solving word problems by creating an input output table. Easily differentiate for your class by providing the handout to students and having your lower students only do the first couple of pages. Great for outcome based reporting! While marking make note of which pages your students struggle the most with. If they are mak

Great game for students to practice balancing equations with multiple operations. Level 1 begins with one variable to complete the equation and uses only numbers 1 - 9. Level 2 has 2 variables to complete the equations with addition and subtraction and includes the numbers 1 - 12. I have used this game with my entire class as practice, or as a center for review. Students typically must be able to complete level 1 before they progress to level 2 game boards.

This package breaks writing narratives into the critical elements in order to scaffold students to writing strong stories. It is broken down into: setting, problems, characters, plot, good beginnings and word choice. When I use this package I typically focus on one element each day in order to create an in depth understanding. I encourage students to write about what they know. I have them begin with a setting they know better than anyone and base their character off of someone they know reall

This unit includes two Smartboard introductions, a small assignment to scaffold students to the larger assignment, and a mini unit plan to explain how each of the products have been used in my classroom. The first SmartNote File includes an introduction to Value as an element of art giving the definition of shades and tints. It also gets students started on the mini assignment which allows them to practice mixing shades and tints. The second SmartNote file gives a brief history of the Canadia

Great handout you can use to provide your students to practice estimating and measuring angles. Each page increases in difficulty to gradually scaffold students to drawing their own angles when given a specified measurement. Easily differentiate for your class by providing the handout to students and having your lower students only do the first couple of pages. Great for outcome based reporting! While marking make note of which pages your students struggle the most with. If they are making e

This is a great handout for students to practice place value with decimals. They will practice writing decimals in word form and then converting these into fractions out of 10 and 100. This handout increases in difficulty with each page. Students are scaffolded to answering multi-step word problems with decimals. My school uses outcome based reporting so I love to use sheets like this as my assessments. I know that if my students make mistakes within the first two pages they are still approa

A great handout to assess your students knowledge and understanding of integers. This project aligns with the Alberta Program of Studies and has students represent integers symbolically and pictorially. It also requires students apply their understanding of integers to a word problem. This handout increases in difficulty with each page. This makes it great for differentiation! You can print only certain pages for your lower students and leave out the beginning pages for your excelling studen

this handout will review two possible methods for finding the prime factors of a composite number. The practice that follows the review increases gradually in difficulty with each page. This allows for easy differentiation! Only assign certain pages to your lower students so they are not overwhelmed by the difficult word problems near the end. This handout also reviews greatest common factor and lowest common multiple in word problems. Aligns with the Alberta Program of Studies.

Great handout you can use to provide your students with practice classifying triangles and polygons and problem solving. Each page increases in difficulty to gradually scaffold students to finding the measure of an angle within a triangle or polygon when given surrounding measurements. Easily differentiate for your class by providing the handout to students and having your lower students only do the first couple of pages. Great for outcome based reporting! While marking make note of which p

Great handout you can use to provide your students with practice solving problems using the order of operations. Each page increases in difficulty to gradually scaffold students to to creating their own problem. Easily differentiate for your class by providing the handout to students and having your lower students only do the first couple of pages. Great for outcome based reporting! While marking make note of which pages your students struggle the most with. If they are making errors in the

Great handout to scaffold students while practising this tricky concept. It begins with a detailed explanation of how to find the Greatest Common Factor of a set of numbers then the pages gradually increase in their level of difficulty. This is also great for marking if you're like my school and using outcome based reporting! If students cannot complete the first couple of pages they are not yet meeting the outcome. If students are successful with pages 3 and 4 they are achieving the outcome.
