Place Value Task Cards Value of the Underlined Digit Math Activity
Math, Numbers, Early Math, Place Value, Homeschool Curriculum, Grade 2, 3, 4, 5, Centers, Activities, Games, Task Cards, Worksheets & Printables
Are you looking for place value practice that goes beyond simply naming ones, tens, and hundreds? These place value task cards help students think more carefully about the value of digits and how that value depends on where a digit appears in a number. I've found that students can sometimes name a place correctly but still confuse the place with the value. For example, knowing that a 6 is in the hundreds place doesn't always mean they'll immediately connect it with a value of 600. These 24 cards give them practice making that connection. What’s Included 24 place value task cards A recording sheet for student answers Answer key for all cards PDF format for printing A Closer Look at the Practice Questions vary throughout the set. Some ask students to find the value of an underlined digit, while others ask for the digit located in a particular place. The later cards also introduce the relationship between place values, asking students to consider whether a digit has ten times or one-tenth the value of another digit. Numbers range from smaller whole numbers through the millions. Where These Fit These cards work well in Grades 2–5, depending on the place value range you're currently teaching. Use them during a math center, with a small group, for partner practice, or as a whole-class Scoot activity. They're also handy when you need independent review without preparing another worksheet. Place Value Skills Place and value of digits Value of underlined digits Ones through millions Reading larger whole numbers Relationships between adjacent place values Print the cards once and keep them with your place value materials. You can use the whole set or pull out just the cards that suit your students at the time.

FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOAD LINKS AND ENCYCLOPEDIA INDEX HERE Lesson Snapshot Title: Oxygen Genre: Nonfiction (informational text) Subject: Science (Chemistry / Earth & Life Science) + Reading Informational Text Primary Topic: Discovery, role, and uses of oxygen Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): S What This Lesson Teaches Best How scientists in the 1770s noticed a “new gas” through clues like a candle flaring brighter and a mouse staying active longer than in ordinary air. How Lavoisier’s careful weighing helped show that “air” is made of parts, leading to naming oxygen and explaining burning and rusting as oxidation . How oxygen is invisible yet makes up about 21% of Earth’s atmosphere , and how bodies use it while breathing out carbon dioxide . How photosynthesis helps balance gases: leaves take in carbon dioxide and water, make sugar, and send oxygen back into the air. Where oxygen is found and how people use it (as O and often O₂ , in air and also “locked into” water/sand/rocks, used in hospitals , factories , and rockets ). Learning Goals Students will describe what Joseph Priestley did and what clues suggested the gas was different from ordinary air. Students will explain why Lavoisier weighed jars, metals, and air before and after heating them. Students will explain what the passage says oxidation helps explain. Students will describe the exchange between humans and plants involving oxygen and carbon dioxide. Students will identify at least two places oxygen can be found or used, based on the text. Key Vocabulary From the Text dephlogisticated — Priestley’s name for oxygen under an old fire theory. mercuric — related to mercury; part of “mercuric oxide” in the text. oxidation — a process that explains burning and rusting. atmosphere — the blanket of gases around Earth. photosynthesis — plants make sugar and send oxygen back into the air. Cored Ed Encyclopedia Overview The Cored Ed Encyclopedia is a weekly series of lessons that you can pick up and use right away. These short readings fit into whatever time you have available. Each one includes a warm-up, a reading, and a set of questions, but it’s flexible — you can do just the reading, the full lesson, or skip the writing section if you need to. Each lesson focuses on a single topic so students don’t get lost. The writing is clear but never childish, making it perfect for grades two through five.

This educational activity is designed to develop a child's ability to sort and categorize shapes and colors. The activity involves the use of a sorting mat, which is set up horizontally, with various sorting cards with different shapes and colors. The learner will be given a set of cards in different colors, such as red, blue, and yellow, and then given three individual sorting cards for each color or shape and will be asked to sort them horizontally in a line. This activity aims to develop the learner's cognitive skills by helping them recognize similarities and differences between the shapes and colors of the sorting cards. The activity can also help the learner develop their sequencing and writing skills by placing the cards in a specific order horizontally. In this activity there is a sorting mat to sort one color or one shape, as well as a sorting mat to sort two colors and shapes and three colors and shapes. Making this activity easy to individualize for learner. As the learner progresses, the activity can be made more challenging by adding more colors and shapes to the sorting cards. This will help the learner to develop their ability to recognize and differentiate between a wider range of shapes and colors. Overall, this activity is a fun and engaging way for young learners to develop their cognitive and fine motor skills, while also introducing them to basic concepts of sequencing and writing. The pages are clear of visual distractions which helps the learner focus on the task. This activity is easy to create - Print, laminate all cards, cut out the individual sorting cards and velcro to the corresponding activity mat. If you have a coil binding machine you can coil bind the pages, However you can three hole punch the mats and put them in a binder or use binder rings for many years of teaching and learning.

SEL Boom Deck-Grateful or Disappointed? With Audio Plus Handout!
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Social Skills, Special Education Needs (SEN), Elementary, Middle School, Activities, Worksheets & Printables
In this resource, students will learn the differences between feeling grateful and disappointed. These two feelings are essentially opposite one another. The 28 slide Boom Deck has 3 educational/introduction cards and 25 task playing cards. There is audio on each card so no reading is required. This can be done as a whole class group whereas each student can take a turn coming up to a interactive board and deciding which situation is being presented. Then the directions for the deck ask students to think of things the person in the situation could be grateful for in a disappointing situation. There are many examples of disappointing situations such as; not being able to play a volleyball game because a coach is out of town, not being able to have outdoor recess, a volcano not erupting, having to do homework instead of play with friends, a dog ruining a pair of shoes, a teacher asking a student to rewrite a paragraph, a special art class is being canceled, and not getting to go on a roller coaster at an amusement park, among others. There is a handout to print off for each student and have them reflect on a time they were disappointed and now looking back, what were they grateful for in that situation. This is a great Boom Deck to do during Thanksgiving but also throughout the entire year. This is great for grades two, three, four, five, and six.
