Bingo Games #1: 7th Grade Math Review
, Not Grade Specific, Games, Activities
This Bingo Games #1: 7th Grade Math Review comes with two Bingo Games for 7th grade math reveiw. There are 2 games of 8 questions each. Skills covered are: proportional word problems, distributive property with fractions and decimals, upper and lower quartiles for a set of data, evualte expressions, solve an equation, mean for a set of data, word problems using increase and decrease with negative numbers, probability, trends in patterns with graphs, box and whisker plot, similar triangles, percent with ratios, order of operations with fractions and decimals. Directions for Bingo Game: Have students to make a 4 x 4 game board. They will fill in the answers in random order. This way everyone has a different board but all of the answers. Put up the first 2 questions. When all students finish #1, you can change to the second page, which still has #2 but also #3 for those that have also finished #2. This allows some students to work ahead when ready. When everyone has finished #2, move to the next screen, which has #3 and #4 as some students will be ready for #4. Continue in this way. Students will put a mark in the corner of the square---Don’t have them completely mark out their answers in the first game because they will use this same board in the second game. Students MUST show their work on paper to get credit for a BINGO. For the problems that don’t have work to show, they must explain their answer on paper. The first game uses questions #1-8. In a regular size class there should be 5-6 bingos after this many questions. You can start the second game #9-10 or save that for another class time. Just make sure students save their board because both games use the same board. I like to give a piece of candy (like jolly rancher) for BINGOs. I always help students with their problems since I used BINGO as practice not as an assessment.

Tables and Graphs: Numerical Patterns
Math, Graphing, Grade 5, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This product contains four practice sheets for the 5th grade Common Core standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.OA.B.3 With this resource students will be asked to generate two numerical patterns using two given rules. Additionally, they will identify apparent relationships between corresponding terms and form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. For example, given the rule "Add 3" and the starting number 0, and given the rule "Add 6" and the starting number 0, generate terms in the resulting sequences, and observe that the terms in one sequence are twice the corresponding terms in the other sequence. Explain informally why this is so. There are five skills for which students will complete exercises. They are 1) when a pattern is described in words the student will find a specific term for that pattern, 2) when a pattern is described in words the student will choose the graph that illustrates that pattern, 3) when a pattern is described in words the student will graph the pattern 4) when a pattern is described the student will complete ordered pairs for that pattern and 5) when a pattern is shown the student will describe the pattern. All questions are multiple choice. The answer sheets are included. The file is in PDF format.

Distributive Property-Greatest Common Factor Card Game
, Grade 6, Activities, Games
Distributive Property-Greatest Common Factor Card Game This resource is a card game for students to practice using the greatest common factor to write a distributive property expression. Included in this resource are 24 cards in PDF format. That is 6 on each page. Game Directions for this Distributive Property-Greatest Common Factor Card Game: Students should play 2 or 3 to a group. Shuffle the cards and then pass out all cards. Each person should look at his/her own cards and match a factored form to a sum. Don’t let your opponents see your cards. After confirming that your matches are correct with your opponents, place them to the side. Use two books to prop up your cards so that you can see them but your opponents can’t. Taking turns, draw a card from the opponent to your right. If it matches one of your cards then put that match aside. Continue until all cards are matched. The winner is the person with the most matches. This Distributive Property-Greatest Common Factor Card Game game allows students to practice the Common Core Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.NS.B.4 Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1-100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2). This Distributive Property-Greatest Common Factor Card Game was designed for students in 6th grade. However, any group of student who needs to review this topic would benefit from playing this game! This resource comes in a PDF with simple directions ready to print!

Elementary Math Centers or Stations: Equivalent Fractions (Gr 4 & 5)
Math, Fractions, Grade 4, 5, Centers, Activities
If you are teaching your students about equivalent fractions, check out this ready-to-print set of 5 math stations to enhance your unit! I believe that using a variety of instructional methodologies is a great way to reach more students. These centers allow students to try different activities and work cooperatively with their peers, all while practicing their equivalent fraction math skills. The first stop includes four word problems for you students to try. You can put out whiteboards for them to use instead of scrap paper. Next they get to play a dice game (with 6-sided dice). They practice drawing equivalent fractions. After that, students get to solve a riddle by matching equivalent fractions. The fourth station includes financial literacy: students calculate sale prices using fractions that are equivalent. Finally, the last station has students share their ideas about math clearly in words and visuals as they answer a math journal prompt. This product comes with an answer key too! Grades to Use With: These stations are designed for students in grades 4 and 5 who are strengthening their understanding of equivalent fractions (in preparation for learning to add and subtract fractions in particular). They could be used in middle school special education classes as well. Ways to Use: I often use stations like these before a math unit test. I split the class into 5 groups and have them start at different stations. They can either rotate every 15-20 minutes, or work at their own pace. If you find math stations useful, I have others available in my store: Multiples and Factors Place Value from Hundred Millions to Millionths Concepts for Early Algebra: Tables, Graphs, and Expressions Geometry: Perimeter, Area, Volume for Shapes with Right Angles Rates and Ratios Integers: Addition and Subtraction Geometry of Triangles: Types, Area, and Angles Probability and Statistics for Grades 5-7 Fractions, Decimals, and Percentages

Simply click on the text to change the words, font, or size. You can drag or turn the text box to change the location or orientation. If so desired, insert a text box with white fill to block off anything you do not want to print on a page.Or delete a text box if you want plain banners . This resource contains four different flags for banners , two flags per page. Simply duplicate pages to add more flags. Because it is one-sided printing, I typically use this as a banner heading on bulletin boards, or hung on a wall, but once, I did hang banners back-to-back and threw in some plain flags as well. There are rectangular labels in various sizes: 2 by 3.5 - 2.5 by 4 - 3 by 5 - 4 by 6 - 6.5 by 10 - 8 by 10 - and full page There are square labels in sizes: 2 by 2. 3.5 by 3.5. 4 by 4. 5 by 5. and 8 by 8 Labels are not meant to fit any particular page of adhesive labels.

When I want an adhesive, I print on full page adhesive labels and cut. Appropriate for all classrooms or your home office! Using matching or coordinating labels and binders (see my other products) will help tie in the different colors and objects in the room, uniting the look, improving the feel of the room, and can even help raise your score on teacher evaluations. Helpful Tip - Don't try to label everything all at once. That can be so overwhelming. You accumulate so much through the years. I suggest doing 5 to 10 labels a week. That is manageable, and makes a big difference. The hardest part is getting started! So find a design you like, your favorite font, and take it a week at a time! You Got This! Happy Organizing!

Squares, Cubes, Square Roots and Cube Roots - I Have Who Has Class Act
, Grade 8, Activities, Games
I Have Who Has is a class activity that is a student favorite. This set contains 36 cards with questions for squares of numbers, cubes of numbers, square roots of numbers and cube roots of numbers. It is a PDF file. I HAVE WHO HAS: PERFECT SQUARES AND CUBES Directions 1. Make a copy of the cards. You will only need one set to reuse for all of your classes. Use color paper and laminate if possible. (I had a set of I Have Who Has that were not laminated, used them for several years, and they held up well.) 2. Have students number 1 -36 on a piece of paper. 3. Mix up the cards and pass them out, one to each student. There are 36 cards so a few students might get two cards depending on your class size. 4. Any student can start with their WHO HAS. The student that has the value equivalent to the WHO HAS statement speaks up and says I HAVE ____ WHO HAS_____. (reading their card) Students will record the answer on their paper whether they have the card or not, trying to beat the person who has the card. Continue in this manner until you return to the starting card and they will then get to say their I HAVE. 5. I suggest having the cubes you don't expect the students to have memorized on the board (such as the cubes of 11 -15). You might even want to have a poster of those permanently on the wall. 6. I always made I HAVE WHO HAS a race for the class. If they could go through the cards in a certain amount of time they all got a piece of candy. I decreased the time allowed, as they got better. All students will have to speak clearly and loudly, listen, and stay focused to get through the cards in a set time. --great skills to practice in and of themselves ***** Make sure to count your cards after taking them back up from students. Even one missing card ruins the activity.********
