Are you planning on working on equations that involve combining like terms with your student(s) this school year? Here is a fun escape room you could do with your 6th, 7th or 8th grade math students to make such problems engaging. Plus, it is a great way to measure what they know about such problems. The problems include multiple operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. How it is used:- Read the prompt - For this escape room, the students must use their knowledge o
Welcome back to school! 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

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!
