This Graphic Organizer helps students plan their writing out in a simple and effective manner.

Engage your students with fun Math Mysteries! Sheets focus on 3, 4 and 5 digit Place Value and utilize simple addition and subtraction. Students complete questions to determine which suspect committed the crimes. They are a fun and unique way to practice skills!
Ideally we all have planned super-engaging lessons with rich and meaningful learning deeply embedded, however sometimes things happen. Life gets in the way and we need something quick and easy to get out there. This is where the Math Time Fillers comes in. This 25+ page booklet is filled with one-shot math sheets great for those times you were unable to plan, or early finishers, or even for a substitute teacher! Many of them can be adapted to varying grade levels from 2-8,or even higher. Many
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. Great for end of year, culminating activities or even spiralling. You could also supplement this with Language Arts by having them create flyers/pamphlets or even commercials.
Suitable for Grade 4 and up! Fun and engaging way to assess their skills in place value, as well as addition and subtraction. The students solve equations and reveal the suspect that committed the crime. Super easy to mark and fun for the students!
Game based learning, gamification, and engaged lessons/activities that have meaningful learning embedded in them are the driving forces behind what I do.
