Five math writing assignments that cover topics like statistics, percentages, the coordinate plane, and other open-ended questions with multiple topics. All of the assignments can be edited and changed to fit your class and your students.

This is a review game that elementary and middle school students love. The teacher places the trash can (make sure it is empty and clean) at the front of the class room. The teacher then marks off a 1-point, 2-point, and 3-point line, each getting farther from the trashcan. One at a time, a student comes to the board to answer a question. If they get the answer correct, then they get to choose which line to shoot the "trashketball" from (I use a ball of paper that I wrap a few times in tape)
