Maegahn Creates

Students will be using their number sense, problem solving, and spatial reasoning skills in this art-based math project. Students will create an artwork based on the work of Piet Mondrian, a Dutch artist that worked primarily in squares and rectangles, and primary colours. The students are given guidelines, the final product be 40% white, 10% black, 20% blue, and 30% red, but how they decide to interpret that is their choice. They can make it as complicated or as simple as they want! This proj

A google slide deck that contains all the information needed to introduce students to the formulas, shapes, and nets for cubes, rectangular prisms, and cylinders. Use this to guide your lesson. Optional - you can pair it with my Surface Area reference guide as a graphic organizer to help students take notes while you are at the board. Can be used in class or for online learning.

In this activity, students work in pairs or small groups to compare Experimental and Theoretical probability. The activity can be done online using the linked dice, or in-person. Reflection questions at the end allow students to think through their results to gain a deeper understanding of probability as a concept. Students can extend their understanding by writing the probability as a fraction, decimal, and percent.

A google slide deck that contains all the information needed to introduce students to the formulas, shapes, and nets for right and equilateral triangular prisms. It also introduces Pythagorean Theorem to find the unknown side length. Use this to guide your lesson, or as your complete lesson.

This Google slide deck is perfect for your first introductory lesson on probability. It is meant to be a brief exploration that can then be paired with probability games, either online or in-person. The activity slides are perfect for formative assessment to guide your creation of next steps that suit your students.
