Four Math pages with fun activities based on Math concepts. The sheets include symmetry, simple graphing, single digit addition and subtraction (and some 2 digit, but nothing larger than the teens). Also includes colour by numbers based on their answers, which are always a hit because...colouring:) Great for review as well as keeping their minds occupied with learning and colouring during a busy time! Ideal for Grades 3,4,5 though easily could be done by Grade 2. Grade 6 will enjoy it too.

This fun activity has the students go through the maze collecting numbers along the way. At the end they need to add up all the numbers they went through to get the treasure in the middle (with the correct answer). Easily modified by using white out on one or two numbers and changing the difficulty. Please send me any comments/concerns and, if possible, rate the activity. Thanks! This item can also be found in my Math Time Fillers Bundle.

Design an amusement park using various strands of Math! This mini-project includes 2D shapes, fractions, area, measurement, as well as data management and graphing.
