Just assign it on Google Classroom - directions included. If you haven't taught the topic yet, it is a great mini lesson and if you have taught it, it can act as a review. (There are also some fun logic puzzles sprinkled in.) dividing decimals multiplying decimals dividing whole numbers multiplying whole numbers adding decimals subtracting decimals deducing information measurement conversions practicing with money problem solving graphing predicting and having fun! Each task builds off the next. Students will get clues as to where Santa might be hiding AFTER they correctly solve each math task. And don't worry, there is an ANSWER KEY.

Personal STEM Research Project: Each student chooses a topic of interest and answers a challenging math question about it after step-by-step mini lessons teach them how. This research project can be used in many ways: - As a whole class STEM unit with 7 mini-lessons (a great idea for Friday afternoons) - As a year/term-long project for early finishers (no more copying extra math worksheets for every single lesson!) - As an enrichment activity for a small group (for those students who are ready for an extra challenge) The unit takes students through the step-by-step process using an example (how much water is needed to fill an ice rink for the NHL). The 7 steps are: o Topic: Help your students choose a topic and then narrow it down. This way your students will be invested in this project because it is about something that interests them! o Question: Brainstorm questions about that topic that need math to be solved. Help guided your students to a question that will have more than one step to solve. o Skills: Practice/learn skills needed to answer the question. Your students can use math websites like IXL, youtube videos, or their textbook to learn/review skills. o Research: Complete research to find necessary information. Students will need to find science and technology information to answer many of their questions. o Math: Put the skills and research together to find the answer! o Present: Think of a creative way to present the solution to the class. o Reflect: Take time to think back on the process. Grades: This project works well for intermediate/middle school aged students in grades 5-8. It could also be used in a high school special education classroom with extra support.

Bank Account Board Game: A Fun, Financial Literacy Lesson for Addition, Subtraction, or Integer Practice (Grades 3-7) Do you want to give your students real world math practice for addition and subtraction up to 4 digits? Do you want to show them how the math they learn in the classroom is helpful in everyday life? Do you want to find a way to have them practice loads of math without even noticing? Then this financial literacy board game is perfect for you! How to Use: Print the two page handout double-sided for each student. Go through the bank account vocabulary together as a class. Then give your students time to try to match the vocabulary words to the clues. Next, talk about what actions help your bank balance and what actions hurt it, and try to think of more examples as a class. Now you are ready for the game! Print a game board for each group of 2-4 students, have six-sided dice, and small objects to use as counters. The game’s main objective is to educate students about financial literacy concepts such as spending (withdrawing) and saving (depositing) money within the context of a bank account. Each child takes turns rolling a six-sided die while using counters on the board. Students start with a $300 bank balance, and each turn leads them to a realistic scenario that increases or decreases their balance. I encourage students to use a scrap piece of paper to keep a running tally of their balance throughout the game. Although rare, some sequences of turns can result in negative balances. If this occurs, you can help your students use integers to calculate a negative balance OR create a rule that students can not have a balance below zero, so they can not complete that action and must miss. a turn. Grades to Use With: This game is perfect for students in grades 3-7 who are practicing adding and subtracting with numbers into the thousands. It can be used as a review for this math skill or in conjunction with a financial literacy unit. What's Included: 4 Page PDF: Teacher Instructions 2 Page Lesson/Worksheet 1 Page Game Board

Here’s an engaging, summer-themed, real-world math budget project for your middle grades students (in grades 5-8). The math project incorporates useful personal finance and financial literacy skills along with realistic budgeting. Each student in your class is going to plan their purchases for a summer camping trip with friends! How to Use: You will assign each student in your class a budget (I recommend between $400-$1,750). A $400 budget will be challenging, and the student might only be able to bring one friend and buy mainly low-cost items. On the other hand, a $1,750 budget will be much more luxurious, and that student will be able to more friends and choose many fancy items. Students work within their budgets, picking a low, middle, or high-cost choice for each category (tent, sleeping bag, cooler chairs, food and more). Certain items must be multiplied by the total number of campers while others (like a stove) do not. Students will add up their eleven choices and make sure they stay within their budget. They might need to make a few trade-offs and skip desired items to ensure they have the things they can't camp without. Finally, your students will calculate how much money they have left, and they will answer reflection questions shopping within a budget, earning more money, or buying things used. What's Included: 5 Page PDF It's Ready to Print and Go! - Title page/teacher instructions - 2 page budgeting worksheet: This includes all of the item choices and their prices. - 1 page reflection: This is a great way to start a class discussion about budgeting- an important life skill. - COMPLETE ANSWER KEY that includes a completed sample budget so you know exactly how to assess this project Math skills required: - adding, subtracting, and multiplying with whole numbers (up to the thousands): no decimals! This project could also be a great addition to a high school life skills classroom!

6th Grade Math: Statistics and Probability Bundle: 4 Activities
Math, Statistics, Graphing, Money, Common Core, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Do you need some new ideas for your 6th grade math unit to meet the Common Core State Standards for Statistics and Probability? Here is a ready-to-go bundle with four fun real-life activities to incorporate into your unit plan. 1) Statistical Questions: Students are taught what a statistical question is: a question that has numerical answers that vary.. 8 questions are included. Students need to identify if they are statistical questions or not. If they are, students think of how the data might be collected. If they are not, students explain what aspects of a statistical question are missing. Finally, students write 4 questions of their own (one should not be a statistical question) and they trade with a friend to see if they can identify the odd one out. 2) Dot Plots and Histograms: Students will collect numerical data through a survey and create their own dot plots and histograms to display their findings! This gives them a sense of ownership over their learning, and it is a great way to assess their skills! Discussion questions and self- assessment are included. 3) Math Stations: Statistics and Probability: Station 3 in particular has students create a dot plot and calculate the mean, median and mode of provided data. They can also do the probability stations if you want to address those skills. 4) Mean, Median and Interquartile Range of Hourly Wages: From a cashier to a taxi driver to an account to a CEO, students are given 10 realistic hourly wages. First, they create a histogram to display the data. Next, they write the wages in order from smallest to largest. They use this information to calculate the mean, the median, and the interquartile range. After that, they eliminate the outlier (the CEO wage) and recalculate the same statistics. Discussion questions are included. Grades to Use With: This bundle is designed for students in Grade 6, but can be used for Grade 5 enrichment, Grade 7 or 8 review, or high school special education classes. What's Included: 20 Page PDF with 4 Activities
