In this math activity for 5th and 6th grade, students will be rolling dice and plugging their numbers into variables in a series of equations. These problems involve a cluster of operations which will allow them to practice "PEMDAS" for each one. After they plug into each equation, they will add up their answers together and whoever gets the highest answer, wins the game. Whether you want to use it to prepare for a test, or just use it as station for math centers, the fun is still the same. How

Teaching style
My style involves questioning and student communication. I use questioning throughout my lessons so that the students can tap into their background knowledge in order to achieve the desired objectives of their lessons.

Additional biographical information
Although I have only taught grades K-5, I have always enjoyed doing math problems specifically involving one or two variables. This has led me to the desire to creating a store that involves engaging activities with those such problems integrated in them. I hope you and your students find the same satisfaction in these activities as I do.
The ultimate goal is to being the Elementary fun to Middle School Math.
Enjoy the Variable Soup!
