The Third Element

Use real or virtual dice to roll for your factors (groups and number in each group), then model and write the equation to match.

Embrace the spooky season with a spooky brew! Students will write a recipe that serves one, then use multiplication magic to write a recipe that will serve many. Activity can be completed independently or in small groups. Students could add illustrations on a separate piece of paper or create another creative representation. Consider mixing up any brews that sound extra tasty! For fourth or fifth grades, consider using unit conversions for a challenge.
