The t-chart strategy: Often times students struggle with adding and subtracting integers because they get too caught up in the signs and the rules. It’s also difficult for students to think of which absolute value is larger they are often struggling to make the connection of why absolute value is even needed in an integer computation problem...Thus, the t-chart strategy was born! In this bundle you will receive: 3 pages explaining the strategy A poster in color and B & W 4 full page example

Speed, accuracy, and a ton of fun all rolled into this seasonal activity. Groups of 4 work together to answer review problems. As they work their way through the activity a rock and roll Rock-Star is being built. This review includes: ~Identifying Integers on a number line ~Comparing 2 Integers using <, >, or = ~All four integer operations ~Ordering 4 integers from least to greatest. ~Ordering 4 integers from greatest to least. Great activity that has been classroom tested and has ha

Best Seller - New and Improved with more cards than before! (as of March 2013) Measurement Wars is played by first dealing out the whole deck of cards evenly amongst the players. Everyone flips over a card at the same time and compare their measurements. The person with the highest valued measurement wins all the cards in that round. Should 2 people have the same highest measurement value, then they would set 3 cards face down and then flip the fourth and the one with the highest value would ta

Fraction Wars is played by first dealing out the whole deck of cards evenly among the players. Everyone flips over a card at the same time and compare their fractions. The person with the highest valued fraction wins all the cards in that round. Should 2 people have the same highest fraction value, then they would set 3 cards face down and then flip the fourth and the one with the highest value would take all the cards. This is repeated until one person has all the cards from the deck and is dec

There is more to this Freebie than meets the eye! I have used this game with kiddos who are in 5th grade and remedial as well as who are in Algebra 1 and need enrichment! For each problem: You MUST use ALL the numbers 1,2,3 and 4. You may NOT repeat the 1,2,3 or 4. The numbers 1,2,3, and 4 do NOT need to be in consecutive order. You may use addition, subtraction, multiplication or division as many times as you would like. Parenthesis, Exponents, Square roots, and Fraction bars ARE allowed

Practice does not make perfect.... perfect practice makes perfect! Perfect Square/Cube flash cards are good, but self-check Perfect Square/Cube flash cards are awesome! Squares and Cubes from 1-20. 40 total flash cards. he layout is set up so that you can easily print the answers on the back of the flashcard. **card stock, or heavy paper works best!** These cards are ideal for math stations, early finishers, sets to send home, independent practice, partner work and much,much more. *****

Speed, accuracy, and a ton of fun all rolled into this seasonal activity. Groups of 4 work together to answer review problems. As they work their way through the activity a creative artist is being built. This review includes: ~Identifying whether a number is an integer or not an integer ~Translating a verbal expression into a numerical integer expression ~Comparing two integers using >, <, and = (This activity also include simplifying a fraction and absolute value statement to decid

Speed, accuracy, and a ton of fun all rolled into this seasonal activity. Groups of 4 work together to answer review problems. As they work their way through the activity a daring safari guide is being built. This review includes: ~Understanding Absolute value (on the number line and in true/false statements) ~Identifying Integers (on an unmarked number line) ~Identifying Properties (Commutative, Associative, Distributive, Inverse, Identity, Mult. Zero) ~Graphing Inequalities (matching a gr

Want students to get up and move around a bit? Prefer to practice using stations? Want students to be able to match a problem with the correct answer? 3 tiers Included: Tier 1) 8 “sets” of matches. Thousands digits are all the same. Hundreds, Tens and Ones digits are the same values but in different order. Ex. 7543, 7435, 7354 Needs higher attention to detail Tier 2) 8 “sets” of matches. Thousands, Hundreds, Tens and Ones digits are the same values but in different order. Ex. 7543, 5437,

In this activity, students make their own Bingo boards. To do that, each student needs the 3 pages of circles, and the two pages of words. I typically copy the circle pages 1 sided and staple them to keep them together. The words page I copy front to back. Students should use the words page to guide them through coloring the circles. Students should color relatively neatly so they can later identify their fraction easily. The words page follows the circles in order. Once all the pages h

Making sense of various units of measure is an essential life skill, requiring reasonable estimates of what measurements mean, particularly in relation to other units of measure. We all make them, they get us through shopping in the grocery store, through doing quick "napkin" math... sometimes knowing the exact measurement just isn't feasible. In this activity, students will match "ballpark" measurements to each other. Includes: meter, yard ounce, gram temperature: body, room, water freezing
