These colorful place value posters are a great visual to add to your classroom! Whether you teach first grade or fifth grade, place value is referred to throughout the entire year as it is the foundation for all math concepts. Displaying this set in your classroom will provide the visual supports that you and your students can utilize each day! Included in this resource are four different options that represent place value from the hundredths to the millions place. Simply select the option that

The challenges students face in geometry do not come from procedural or math misconceptions. Rather, students struggle in this realm of math because of the overwhelming vocabulary that they are expected to learn and memorize. The use of academic vocabulary is at it's all time high when students embark on geometrical related tasks. From acute triangles to terms like justify and attribute, students are front loaded with vocabulary words that directly impact their understanding and overall perform

Teaching is hard. Teaching students to accept their mistakes is even harder! The most powerful tool teachers can use after an assessment is a student error analysis and reflection. Providing students with the time to analyze their mistakes and to determine what type of mistake they made is such a meaningful learning experience. It also helps teachers understand a silly mistake vs. misconception. Included in this resource are 5 self-analysis and reflection templates where students can work thro

Finding factors of a number can be very challenging for students--especially if fact fluency is still developing. Showing the various ways a number can be represented with arrays is such a beneficial strategy! As students build equal groups in columns and rows, they are able to physically see how composite numbers have more than 2 factors. While many teachers prefer the "rainbow" method when finding factors, I have had more success with the "T-Chart" method since it is most commonly used when

ARRAYS ARE SWEET AND SO ARE YOU! Using arrays to represent and understand multiplication can help learners add problem solving strategies to their math tool box! These digital task cards allow students to represent multiplication with arrays as they visualize the numbers into rows and columns. Students will work through 20 task cards as they use their knowledge of arrays to find the product of various multiplication sentences. They will also have the opportunity to build their own arrays with

These task cards are great for reinforcing measurement conversions! Students will practice and apply the skill of multiplying numbers together to get the accurate conversion. Included in these 32 task cards are various world problems, comparison problems, and multi-step addition and multiplication problems. Each slide contains a conversion chart tool to support the computation process. Check out the preview for a closer look! Measurement conversions can be tricky, but with these scaffolded t

SHHHH there's a fraction impostor among us! Send your students on 20 different tasks to identify the imposter! They will analyze and compute the given fractions on each task card to determine which imposter has given incorrect information. When the impostor has been spotted, students will click and drag the SUS label to show their answer. They will also work their way through word problems by moving the crew mates on the map to determine the answer. This is perfect for review, extra practice,

Introducing measuring can sometimes be tricky. There are many misconceptions that can occur when teaching students about using rulers to measure. Before I jump into measuring to the nearest 1/4 or 1/8, I always start with measuring to the nearest whole number and half number. Why? Because it serves as an effective stepping stone for measuring to the nearest 1/4 and 1/8. If you follow a similar plan, then you will love these task cards! This resource is perfect for introducing and/or reviewing

DIVISION DIVISION DIVISION! Division in of itself is a confusing concept for students to grasp. Division with remainders is an even bigger beast for students to face! Before I even introduce remainders, I always give my students word problems that automatically call them to interpret remainders with division. By doing so, each student can physically see how some numbers cannot always be divided into equal groups. These task cards can support your students through the division process and se

Line plots are such an under appreciated math skill. Time and again, I see this skill addressed at the end of the year even though it's seen all over state standards and standardized assessments. I love introducing my students to line plots early on because it can so easily be tied into word problems, fractions, and Science! This resource is prefect for students to practice and apply their knowledge of interpreting data and creating line plots! Each task card includes a different line plot w

This resource is a great tool to build mastery with 2 digit by 2 digit multiplication. A good teacher offers numerous multiplication strategies, however, students have a tendency to favor the area model method. This is mainly due to the way students learn place value and expanded form in their early school years. So toss out that old math and get on board with this new math!! Drill and practice those 2 digit by 2 digit multiplication problems with these digital task cards! Students will be s

The beginning of the year is full of routines and procedures, community building, and...... PLACE VALUE! It seems that no matter what grade level you teach, place value is ALWAYS one of the first things seen in the curriculum. Even if your curriculum starts with arrays or division, I would bet money that you review place value at some point or another before delving deep into other skills. Place value is the FOUNDATION for all number sense and awareness. If our students don't understand place v

Long division can be a tricky concept to teach! In my experience, I have learned that children respond highly when they have guiding boxes. The boxes help students keep their number organized while also allowing them focus on one step at a time (the multi-steps can be overwhelming!). With this resource, students will practice 3-digit-by-1-digit division problems by using a ' number bank' to help guide and self-check their work. In the INTERACTIVE digital option, students will drag the numb

These 2-digit-by-2 digit multiplication task cards are a great resource to use when wanting to reinforce the area model (box method) strategy! Included are 15 task cards and one example task card to be used as a model. If you are new to digital task cards and/or Google Classroom don't worry! I have created step-by-step instructions that will guide you through the process of downloading the resource to your Google Drive and assigning them through your Google Classroom! Great for distance learnin

Use this resource as a formative assessment to measure student's understanding on data and statistics. Students will analyze line plots and tally charts to answer questions across the higher order thinking levels. Our team used this as a pre and post measure for a common formative assessment (CFA). It is also a great resource when preparing students for state testing for the multiple choice questions mirror a standardize format. A title page is included if you are wanting to use this as a
