Over the years I have found it difficult to keep everyone involved during group and Think-Pair-Share discussions. This worksheet has been over the years to eliminate inappropriate/off topic discussions. The worksheet is completed and collected on a weekly basis or when needed.

The four part constructed response organizer is a tool i have used over the years to help students organize their math approach/plan. The organizer is used to solve multiple step word problems. Included is a student/teacher rubric.

The worksheets are designed to test your students' surface area knowledge. Students explain step-by-step, using the vocabulary words provided, how to solve each problem.

Here is another fun game that my 5th graders have enjoyed over the years. If your students are having difficulties adding integers try this fun interactive game. They can use scratch paper to to their work (charge particle models). Enjoy!!

The 60 Second Sweep is a way to show mastery of the multiplication facts between 2 and 9. It is so important that students have strong multiplication skills, that students in all math classes must complete the 60 Second Sweep as part of their multiplication qualifications (for which students receive a grade). We go over this the first day and recite it daily in class for the first week.

This file includes prediction instructions and a worksheet for the activity. Students predict how many stars they can draw in one minutes. While one student draws, the other student keeps track of the time. Check out the file for more and enjoy this fun activity!

Explicit teaching instruction is utilized to help students acquire information and skills I teach explicitly the standard after a pre-assessment task. Then spend 3-5 days on the standard with explicit lesson. Finally, I administer a post-assessment math task to conclude with the standard. I've included with this file essential questions for each math domain.

Students solve and explain perimeter and area problems. Perimeter and area each have a parallelogram problem. students will then use their knowledge to solve and explain one parallelogram perimeter and area problem.

The goal of the game is to make the largest number. The file includes individual board games, spinners and instructions.

Pre-Algebra Notebook Cover and Progress Card Notebook Cover and Progress Card are inserted in each student's clear overlay front and back (Progress Card). Progress Cards are a tool used to keep parents in the loop as students complete a Chapter/Topic and Assessment. In addition, it provides the teacher a tool to consistently grade student's notebook as they finish a chapter/topic. Each sheet accommodates six chapters/topics. Typically each student math notebook (binder) has the following

This rubric is for the audience to actively grade their peers as they see their peers present mathematic projects. The rubric contains the following subgroups: -Eye Contact & Posture (100 pts.) -Entusiasm & Pronunciation (100 pts.) -Organization & Subject Knowledge (100 its.) The students may also include one wish and one like of the presentation. The file also comes in color and in black & white.

Here is a fun addition game for your students. Great for IWT. All it take is two players or small group.
