Mean, Median, Mode, and Range: Notes and Practice

This is an awesome tool! I used this in my sixth grade small group math lesson. This is a 3-page document that includes space and thoughts for notes. It really helps students break down each of the ideas and think about the different words (since they are easily confused!) Then, it gives a guided practice problem that you can work through together. At the end, there are two practice problems for students to work individually. Great mini-lesson to check for understanding of mean, median, mode, an

Money: Real-Life Context Shopping Activity

This activity was created for intervention level 5th graders. This 13 page packet includes 4 total sheets (that can be spread into 2 days) to help students use addition, multiplication, and real-world money skills. It is a great hands-on and involved activity to get your students thinking!

The Great Football Challenge: A Math Performance Task

This activity combines football and fun for 5th grade! Students activate prior knowledge of area of rectangles and use their operational skills to compute a quote for new sod for a football field. Operations with decimals usually occurs in the fall for me, so this is a fun way to make decimals and math relevant and fun in football season! Students work in teams to model, solve, and then present their findings to tie in ELA speaking and listening standards.

To Regroup or Not to Regroup?

As an intervention teacher, my kiddos struggle with regrouping rules in addition and subtraction. I created this game/worksheet for them to do in partner pairs as a center. They roll the two dice and write the dots as a double digit number. They roll a second time and record the number then tell me if they must regroup or not! This is an excellent way to review regrouping by getting students to really look at the problems. The included pages can easily be adapted into a subtraction activity. BON

Dare to Compare!

This is a great practice sheet for place value and comparing numbers.I used this for a little assessment after we had finished a unit on place value and rounding. Students draw cards from their number piles (the numbers are a separate download) and order them from least to greatest. Then, they order from greatest to least! There are 10 total comparison problems where they must tell <, >, or = for a set of numbers. Great tool to see what your kiddos have learned or what they need to work on

Experience

I am a graduate from The University of Alabama and I am in my 9th year of teaching! My Master's is in Instructional Planning. I am a fifth grade teacher in Birmingham. I love the upper elementary grades and love my job!

Teaching style

I love to think outside the box. If I can take a textbook idea and switch it up and put my own spin on it, I know I can better fit my own students in my classroom. I love seeing kids learn something new and exciting. Anything crafty, hands-on, experiments, or movement lessons are my favorite. Being creative and having fun also has its place!
