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
Here's a great welcome back to school activity for students to share what they did over the summer OR winter break in a productive way, fun way! There are two versions in this product! Page 1: Back to School (after the summer) Page 2: New Year (After winter break) First explain it to the kids. Then give them 10 minutes to get signatures. Then call on students to share who did what from the sheet. During this time, ask for elaboration. Great way to build report with your students too! Sure
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. :)
A six course "menu" of Book Report Activities for Grades 3-8! Menu options engage students with text: Before, During, and After. Includes Rubric for students self assess and teacher assesses too. Activities include select multiple intelligences: Artistic and Linguistic. Some activities include: Predicting, questioning, vocabulary development, drama, comic strip, dear diary, travel brochure, timeline, book review, and/ or author study.
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
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 classic Back to School Activity for grades 3-10!
Students get re-acquainted by moving around the room to get autographs of classmates who...(well you'll have to see the sample.)
In Word format which is customizable.
Also in pdf to preserve the original format.
Happy getting back to school! :)
