The Lawn Boy Read Aloud by Gary Paulsen PowerPoint Math Questions

This PowerPoint file is to be used with the read aloud book The Lawn Boy by Gary Paulsen. It is a great book that introduces the stock market (I use this PowerPoint file in whole group and print off slides to take for a grade). Some we do together and some we will just give as a pop quiz unannounced. I take the book a step farther and make an entire stock market, portfolio, line graph unit. Students purchase a stock of their choice with $10,000 (the remaining balance goes into a low risk saving

197 PowerPoint Slides 5th 6th Grade Review (Test Prep)

This is a 197 PowerPoint file that has many custom animations and sounds that can be used in whole group or small group. I prefer to use this file in small group settings in a computer lab that has Microsoft PowerPoint. Students that are near the same ability level partner up and work on this together. When a problem appears, they work it out, compare/discuss as needed, click to find the answer, and then click again for the next problem. EVERYTHING HAS ANIMATION and SOUND. This is also excellent

Place Value of Whole Numbers and Decimal Worksheet

This is a nice worksheet to do after some study has been done with both the place value of whole numbers and decimals. I usually pull my lower kids to work with in a small group while the rest of my class works on this independently. I post the answer key online for kids to check afterwards from my class website or if I feel kids are "cheating" the system and not learning/fixing mistakes on their own, I will print off a hardcopy or two to keep at my desk with me.

5th Grade Test Prep #2 CCRA, NWEA, PARCC, Common Core, Assessment

This is a 3 page packet with 27 questions very similar in format to the types of questions used on various statewide/national assessments. It is rigorous and designed to challenge some students to follow the directions on some types of problems using charts or graphs. This also has some various review sprinkled in throughout. I use these files for independent practice, homework, or small group activities.

Integer Computation Negative Positive Numbers Add Subtract Multiply Divide

This is a worksheet that is a quick touch up on all the integer rules as it relates to basic computation for positive and negative numbers. There are also a few questions that deal with comparing and ordering positive and negative values along with a few one step equations. After introducing integers and students have studied them for a while, this is a real quick review that doesn't take too long to refresh one's brain on the integer rules.

This is another review worksheet of basic math concepts that students need to master in order to pass statewide testing. The answer key is also included to post for students to use as needed. It is essential that review is done at a minimum of 2-3 times per week in order for students to not forget things that have been taught.

24 PowerPoint Slide Computation Review Math Fluency 5th 6th Grade Math

This PowerPoint presentation consists of 24 slides that are custom animated to review decimal and fraction computation. Exponents and order of operations are also thrown in the mix as well as a few other concepts that frequent statewide assessment testing (you can preview all questions to see all the math content). I typically throw in a few slides each day in my daily math review so kids can constantly rep out past concepts. Once kids get in the hang of this routine, it can easily be reviewed f

6th Grade Level Review Worksheet #2 Integers, Decimals, Fractions

This is a weekly review sheet I make my students do so they don't forget how to add/subtract/multiply/divide with decimals, fractions, and integers. One must touch on all of this or the rules will be forgotten. This would also be a nice remedial review worksheet for kids at the 7th and 8th grade level.

Add and Subtract Fractions Mixed Numbers w/Fraction Concepts

This is a worksheet to do after some extensive practice has already been done on adding/subtracting fractions. I sometimes will use this well after a "unit" has been taught to touch up on the basics of adding and subtracting fractions. I usually will pull kids to work with in a small group setting that need more help. The answer key is posted on my class website for students to reference as needed, come get help from me, etc. Sometimes if kids are taking advantage of the answer key being posted,

Area, Real World Application, Decimals, Division, Word Problems

This is one example of a multi-step word problem using AREA in REAL WORLD CONTEXTS (area of 4 walls and buying paint to cover) in which the previous answer builds into the next problem, similar to any statewide assessment given to kids. Frequent repetition on these types of problems builds confidence for kids to not get freaked out when given a multi-step word problem.

Beginning of Year Math Test Prep #1

It is never too early to give students math problems in word problem/testing format. The more often students work on these kinds of problems, the better. EQUATIONS, MONEY, and VARIABLES are always formally tested and I do these weekly. This 2 page worksheet also includes an answer key in RED showing work and number sentences for your students to see the correct thinking when solving if you post on a class website, online, etc.

This is a 29 Slide PowerPoint lesson on multiplying whole numbers. This covers some word problems, mental math of numbers that are multiples of 10, estimation, and even has some exponents on the last few slides. There are even slides on the multiplication of larger digit numbers by larger digit numbers. All slides are animated with sound. Click, the problem pops up and students work it out, click again the answer pops up, click again a new problem pops up, etc. I like the sound feature as my stu

Quick Number Sense Visual Questions in PowerPoint 25 Slides

This 25 slide PowerPoint file is used to quickly touch base on some number sense each day. Simply add a slide or two in your daily PowerPoint presentation so students can not only review some basic computation skills, but learn how the same value can be written different ways. This file builds up one's decimal, fraction, and computation skills. The answers are at the bottom of each slide when not in slideshow format. Some answers have many types of interpretations which is highly welcomed in my

Multiplying Decimals #3

This is a type of worksheet I like to throw out to my students frequently as a way for kids to learn/practice multiplying decimals (I have 3 total listed on here). There are a few word problems, multiplication of 10, 100, and 1,000, and several multiplying decimals problems on the back (with grid paper). I post the pdf answer key on a website and kids check as needed. Works well with my style! I have found that students don't really learn by listening to me speak in whole group instruction so in

Decimal Computation Worksheet 1

This is a type of worksheet I like to throw out to my students frequently as a way for kids to practice decimal computation. There are a few word problems, decimal multiplication/division of 10, 100, and 1,000, and several computation problems on the back (with grid paper) that are not the same back to back. For example, I rarely have students do 2 addition of decimal problems back to back. It's too easy on the brain. I like to bounce around all over the place as a way to do "test prep" because

This is the PowerPoint file I use to teach decimals all at once for my 5th grade classroom in whole group instruction on dry-erase boards (lots of drill and practice; as students finish adding/subtracting decimal problems, they can always write their answers in standard form as a fraction, in word form, and expanded form). I use place value blocks when I do and give students a conceptual/visual to understand when I do. This file has animation and sound with each question. For example, start th

Experience

15 years upper elementary and junior high math. I don't teach just one concept a day, I teach all math concepts everyday. We add, subtract, multiply, and divide with whole numbers, decimals, and fractions starting from day 1 in my 5th grade classroom. My worksheets produce results!! Also, each one has an electronic ANSWER KEY to pass along to parents to help their child.

Teaching style

Never let the brain stop working. Stimulating the brain is most important. Constant review is always spiraled in lessons everyday. I use these worksheets and Power Points daily and frequently pop quiz to hold students accountable. All students are always randomly called on to keep them honest and engaged 3-4 times per class when whole group instruction is used; independent work time and small group instruction to rep out math problems are critical to do each day. Students are expected to work as the expectations are set high; it can be a culture shock to start the year, but students show great growth.
