Students practice using knowledge of ordinal numbers to solve the mystery message. They are also practicing locating the position of a letter from the top and from the bottom. Though we teach ordinal numbers in second grade, this can also be a useful review for higher grade levels. Includes: - student sheet - answer key

Students will use a 0-9 number generator or a 0-9 (or 1-9) spinner in order to build two, three, and four-digit numbers. Then, they will round each number to the nearest ten, hundred, and thousand, when applicable.

Students will find fractions of a region and place the fraction on top of the picture. Then, they will use the answer key to self-check their work. Great for student seat work or small group review.

Teaching graphing has never been so delicious! Using the original Skittles candy colors, students will complete a tally chart, a bar graph, and picture graph to represent their candy pieces. Then, students will write a statement about the data as they enjoy the fruits of their labor in graphing.

Students can take this self-checking matching game to their seat or work with the teacher. Students practice with fractions of a set.

Students can review plane and solid geometric figures with this self-checking game. Teachers may also work with a small group for review.

Students practice sorting ordinal numbers into two groups -- word form and ordinal number form. Students also match the word form with the ordinal number and place them in order on a sentence strip. It's a great quick check to see if your students have an understanding of ordinal numbers and their positions. Copy a blank game board so students can fill in the board and play Ordinal BINGO. Materials: - scissors - glue - counters (for BINGO) - pencil - sentence strip (register tape works also)

Students love to challenge each other in races! This is a way to channel the students' desires while they explore the probability of rolling number cubes/dot cubes/dice. Which sum wins the race? Why?

Students pick up a domino and write the number on the domino. Then, they add to find the sum.
