This game allows students to explore the 3 different transformations that can be made to an object: a flip (reflection), a turn (rotation), and a slide (translation). Students will perform all of these transformations based on the probability of the spinner. The game board has the directions right on it. So the teacher can just print off 1 game board per partner group. Have fun performing transformations with this game.

Students love this incredibly engaging game that helps them make connections between multiplication and surface area. Teachers can use the game to help students solidify their basic facts. This game can be played with a double dice (6 sided dice), a decahedron double dice (10-sided double dice) to work on facts from 1 to 10, or they can used dodecahedron double dice (12-sided double dice) to work on facts from 1 to 12. Multiplication Monopoly is an originally designed game that I created to us

This semantic feature analysis allows students to analyze patterns in what landform is created by weathering, erosion, deposition, and whether the forces that created them were constructive, destructive, or both.

This is a game where students will perform all of the transformations that can be performed on an object. They include flips (reflections), turns (rotations), and slides (translations). The directions to the game are typed right on the game board itself. Easy to manage....the teacher will provide the game board for partner groups and a box of Conversation Hearts.

The purpose of this game is to help students see the place value relationship when performing computation with decimals. As we know decimals are related to fractions, and by playing this game, students have a visual representation of the computation being performed. These two games have students model addition or subtraction of decimals. Teachers can use this game during small groups to teach or in centers to reinforce the conceptual understanding of computation.

Students research one of the five different Indian Tribal Regions of early history: Northwest Indians, Southwest Indians, Great Plains Indians, Northeast Woodlands, Southeast Woodlands. They become experts in their region on these categories: present-day location, housing, food eaten, how they adapt to find food, arts & crafts, games played, and how they adapted to problems within their region. They complete this semantic feature analysis for their tribal region. Then students teach the oth

This PowerPoint discusses the big ideas of comparing fractions. Students will learn those big ideas of: When the denominators are the same just compare the numerators for the greater number of pieces to the whole. When the denominators are different, you must create equivalent fractions to compare the two fractions. PLUS, a quiz follows the tutorial to see if the students understood the concepts.

I love to use versions of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire game within my classroom to review key concepts and vocabulary. It extremely interests kids when you play a game, plus the new Common Core Standards suggest finding ways to incorporate vocabulary into the learning of content. This could be something you do after a reading a passage about Matter and Its Changes. Please remember to start the game over if someone doesn't make it all the way to $1,000,000. The game is over when someone answ

Relationships between numbers is the most important concept in math. It is the reason students are having the troubles they have in math. Teachers MUST spend 5-10 minutes each day in order to build up their abilities towards automaticity. Using triangular flashcards can help students reach this goal. Using triangular flash cards are valuable because students can begin to register into their long-term memory numbers that relate to each other (four operations). These cards can be printed on w

Math Bingo Common Core Math can be used as a cyclical review of Common Core Math Standards. Teachers can give this to students as a morning work activity, an ongoing measure of skills, or a CBM (curriculum-based measure). Data can be collected from each bingo page using a data-analysis style chart. Students really like this activity especially when teachers attach a tangible reward to getting a bingo. Students can earn up to eight bingos on each sheet. Teachers can tell students to at

As teachers, how many of us are constantly looking for engaging activities for students to use during MTSS.  Well, this activity may help quell those concerns.  In this activity, students will practice their skills of dividing words into syllables so they can properly pronounce multisyllabic words.  Print the cards onto cardstock and laminate for durability. I hope this activity will work well for you.  Feel free to send feedback via my TpT page.

This is a semantic feature analysis graphic organizer. Students can use their textbooks or other resources (internet, library books, etc.) to research each explorer (Spanish, French, Dutch, and English). Once the organizer is completed the teacher can have the kids make inferences or draw conclusions about how each group of explorers saw how important exploration was, as well as, their motivation to explore. An alternative to completing this organizer is teachers could assign each student/gro
