STEM-tastic Learning

Students can practice their 2 by 2 digit multiplication through this game. Each page has 4 cards: one contains the original problem, one has the area model completed, one has the partial product written out, and the final one has the answer. Students must race to find their 2 matching partners and then find their answer card somewhere in the classroom.

Students can use this activity in a variety of ways to practice the concepts of factors, multiples, and prime and composite numbers. Students can use this as task cards in an independent center or it can be a class game where students work in teams to find the fib and be the first to show their answer.

Students will use the internet to visit one of the counties in Arizona. They will create maps, a souvenir from that county, and figure out how much it would cost to visit that county for a week. They will write journal entries about their trip and create a postcard for someone about their visit.
