This file includes 5 things to meet the CCSS 5.G.3-4: 1) Student sheet: Quadrilateral Hierarchy Chart (2 pages) 2) Shape Cards A-O (15 quadrilaterals to use with chart) 3) Tree map showing the hierarchy of quadrilaterals 4) Answer key for Chart 5) Basic definitions of the types of quadrilaterals (I use these as a guide for the students to make a foldable of the terms and definitions) **Note: The trapezoid in this activity uses the "EXCLUSIVE" definition: meaning that the trapezoid is defined as

Multiple options for graphing: •Full page or Half page •4 Quadrants or First Quadrant **Add a personal touch by having students fill in the cloud with an "inspirational quote" OR a quote to finish the following statement: "I have a Dream..." ------------------------------------------------------------- This activity gives hope that math can help solve problems. :)

Students use a geoboard (or Geoboard App on iPad) to construct specific triangles and quadrilaterals. (Listed here) right triangle isosceles triangle parallelogram trapezoid acute triangle scalene triangle kite rectangle obtuse triangle quadrilateral rhombus square This product covers Common Core Standards in grades: 3rd- 3G1: Reason with Shapes and Attributes 4th-4.G.2: Classify two-dimensional figures 5th- 5.G.3-4: Classify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their prope

Grades 5-8, here's a Lab activity using protractors! Every get frustrated with the angles being too small? Not here! They fit the protractor perfectly! In addition, the "correct" way to measure angles is emphasized. (Evidentially, the "correct" way is to measure counterclockwise.) I copied the Labsheet on colored paper and reused them in each of my four classes. This could be done individually, in a small group, or with partners. Happy angling! Answer key coming soon...

Coordinate Grid Mystery Picture!Connect the coordinate points to create a four-leaf clover on a 1st Quadrant Grid. Spells the word "Lucky!" also. Great way to add some theme math-art to your classroom work!

This is a continuation of Open Box A, with volumes that a little bit larger. Meets Common Core State Standard: 5.MD.5: Relate volume to the operation of multiplication. This hands on activity requires students to cut out, fold, and then find how many centimeter cubes will fill the box. Students then record the dimensions of the box and relate to the volume through multiplication. (length x width) x height = volume

How many different ways can you combine your favorite shirts with your favorite pants? In this activity, students color their own shirts and ties to explore the concept of "combinations". Note: According to mathematics definitions, in combinations, the order does NOT matter. Combination 1A is the same as A1, this would be "one combination". They begin with just 2 shirts and 2 ties, then progress toward 5 shirts and 5 ties! They also explore the relationship between the number of shirts an

Looking for a clean, simple way to post the 8 Mathematical Practices? Here are all eight practices, one per page. You can print on regular paper, or enlarge to make even bigger! Two options on the .zip file: 1) In color (ROYGBIV) 2) Black&White (Cut apart and put on colored background) Good for all grades K-12.

What is the probability of your students will learn from this activity? Pretty likely! Remember in mathematics, permutations order matters! Whereas combinations (in math) order does NOT matter. In this activity the scoop on top does matter! I always save the best for last! Using student make ice-cream scoops, they manipulate the possible permutations of two and three scoops of ice-cream. They begin with just two scoops- Either AB or BA. Then they move on to three scoops: ABC, ACB, BAC, B

Here's a Thanksgiving/November riddle you can do two ways with your students... Students solve questions related to GCF, LCM, Prime Factorization, Area of parallelogram, Area of Triangle, Fractions (add, subtract, divide) and earn a clue for each one to solve a riddle. (What do you call a running turkey?) Option A:On Desmos, it's a breakout style activity. On the last screen, students fill in the clues to solve the riddle. The link is provided on the Google Drive File after purchase. To use

Are you looking for "Common Addition and Subtraction" word problems to use with your 1st, 2nd, or 3rd graders aligned to the Common Core State Standards? Offers great opportunity for open-ended solutions and student dialogue! *Here are 16 pages of editable word problems aligned to the CCSS Table 1: "Common Addition and Subtraction Situations", page 88. http://www.corestandards.org/assets/CCSSI_Math%20Standards.pdf **Once downloaded, open the .zip file and all 16 files in Word format are read

This set is only 3 operations: Add, Subtract, & Multiply (no division in this one, that is in another set).12 Self-checking Task Cards! This is not just another worksheet... Instead, give your students an opportunity to move and do math. Hang them around your classroom, or out in the hallway! Here's how:Students choose any problem to start with, and then they have to find that answer on another task card- this new card is now their next problem! This file includes:-12 task cards with

Are you trying to build fluency with Equivalent Fractions? Well, this is for you! Included are: 1) Game board for Fraction Wipeout (must create dice to match game- Just write the 6 fractions on a blank cube) 2) Equal Fractions Review. Students Use fraction bars (or memory) to partition the "equal fractions". This is then used as a tool for the game. Common Core State Standards: Grades 3-5 Equivalent Fractions!

Dots and Boxes- the classic game- with a mathematical twist! Players roll a dice and follow the code to select either a prime or composite number. This is a great way for kids to practice working with prime & composite numbers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Possible numbers go up to 25.
