Teach Classically

This is perfect for your moving your students through the entire concrete, pictorial, and abstract process of Singapore Math. Includes part-part-whole and number bond areas to use with manipulatives.

Have students write their own math word problems to share with friends! This is both the planning and drafting portion of the process. The box at the left cut in half is for students to appropriately draw the part-part-whole model for their equation. I then let students write their problems in a book to have friends solve. They LOVE this activity!

This is a great enrichment activity to add to your math lesson. I have used it with three-digit subtraction so that the students understand that if a hundred is taken away from the hundreds place, it is adding a value of ten tens to the tens place. Students may use manipulatives or expanded form to check their answers.
