Order of Operations – 5 Real-Life BEDMAS Scenarios
Math, Order Of Operations, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
Order of Operations in Action: 5 Real-life Scenarios that use BEDMAS This teaching resource blends everyday real world situations with math knowledge, allowing students to solve word problems using simple mathematical equations and order of operations. It strives to show basic situations when we instinctively use order of operations to solve a multiple-step math problem: from making pancakes for a crowd to splitting the cost of pizzas with some friends. NOTE: Exponents are not used in this product. How to Use: Go through the sample problem with your class. Talk about how to turn the word problem into a simple equation. Then have your students solve the equation without order of operations and with order of operations. They should start to see why using order of operations helps get the correct answer. Then, allow students to work in pairs or small groups on the remaining four problems. For each one, students have to write their own equation and solve it with and without BEDMAS. Finally, early finishers can try to write their own sample problem to trade with a friend. What's included: A three-page PDF file containing two worksheets and an answer key: all visually-appealing and ready to print! Grades to Use With: This lesson is designed to be used in grades 5-7: when first introducing order of operations to your students, or as a real-world review of this important concept. Educational Goals: The primary objective is enriching students' comprehension and mastery surrounding the BEDMAS order of operations, minus exponents. The worksheets align well with key mathematical standards like CCSS5.OA.A.1 and CCSS5.OA.A.2.

Mixed Numbers Recipe Doubling – Real-World Math
Math, Fractions, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Butter Tart Recipe (based on my grandma's actual delicious family recipe!) Here is a real-life example to help students practice adding and multiplying mixed numbers and improper fractions. When students ask, "When will we ever use this in real-life?!" you can show them this lesson and say that working with fractions is so common in baking. This delicious activity will allow students to practice using fractions with a realistic everyday example: baking! Students will take a recipe that has several fractions in it and double it. Half a cup of something becomes a cup and 3/4 of a cup becomes 1 and a half cups. After that, they need to figure out how much of each ingredient would be needed if the recipe was made five times bigger (perhaps in a bakery setting or for a large event). I encourage my students to use different strategies to complete this task: drawing pictures with squares, repeated addition, or multiplication. Boxes for diagrams and math calculations are included to encourage students to show their work. You could even have different students come up to show their personal strategies to the rest of the class. As an extension, students can bring in their own recipes from home in the next class and double them or multiply them by five as well. You might even want to actually make something tasty to eat too!

Winter Unit Rates Word Problems Digital Escape Room
Math, Fractions, Winter, Seasons, Holiday & Seasonal, Grade 5, 6, 7, Escape Room, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
If your students struggle with unit rates, this Winter Digital Escape Room will give them the practice they need without the struggle. Rather than slog through another page of word problems, students are placed into a scenario where unit rate problems are a necessary part of bringing back the Frostbite Festival. This allows enough purpose to be added to avoid taking away from the math. Students work through twenty actual-unit-rate word problems set in four escape room winter scenes: The Snack Shack, Skating Trail, Yeti Workshop, and Penguin Performance. Students work with word problems related to cost, distance, time, and quantity from the everyday experience they realize from using unit rates. In order to progress, students must compute the correct answer and type it into the escape room. The escape room is a completely self-contained activity, which means students will not be able to progress with an incorrect answer, making this activity perfect for independent practice. One of the most beneficial aspects of this resource is the low level of work that it generates. There is no prep work that is necessary. You don’t have to set up anything, including logins and passwords and lock screens. You can just send out the link via Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, Microsoft Teams, or whatever tool that you are using. They just click and start. This autosave functionality comes in very handy during longer class times or interruptions. So long as students have had the chance to log back into the same computer and browser, they will pick up exactly where they left off. To make it more flexible, a printable version is also included. You will get a worksheet featuring all twenty unit rate problems, a matching version task card set, and finally, a full answer key. This is perfect for math center activities, small-scale intervention groups, or homework. Both the student and teacher instructions are provided and WrittenClearly, so there’s no misunderstanding or guestimation of how to do things. Students know just how to input their answers, and teachers know how to assign and use the autosave function. The skills which will be developed here include the understanding of the interpretation of unit rates, calculating a unit rate from a ratio, and using the rate in practical applications of money, time, distance, and measure problems. A winter unit rate resource that is engaging, organized, and actually easy to implement is not easy to find, but this escape room resource certainly delivers all of these things. Such a resource keeps students on task and provides a reliable no-prep resource for you to implement repeatedly.

Algebra Real World Math Problem: 5th 6th 7th Gr Patterns & Expressions
Math, Algebra, Graphing, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
This lesson is an excellent addition to a pre-algebra unit in grades 6 or 7 to help show students a real-world application of using expressions, tables of values, and graphing to solve a simple, everyday financial literacy decision. Students are tasked with deciding how to pay to visit a new wave pool in the neighbourhood. They can pay a flat monthly fee or pay a smaller fee and then pay a small amount each time they go. The trick will be determining how often they are likely to go each month. Students get to: Analyze a realistic scenario Complete two tables of values Write a pattern rule in words and turn it into an expression with a variable Create a simple line graph to compare the two options visually Explain their decision in words using evidence from their mathematical work This lesson can be used in various ways: it can be used during full-class instruction or smaller group activities. It could be regular classwork, a homework assignment, or even a summative assessment. I liked to have students complete it near the end of our algebra unit to assess skills before the unit test and to have as an artifact for parent-teacher conferences. An extension challenge is offered that is specifically designed for early finishers. A complete answer key is also included for easy marking out of twenty points. Grades to Use With: This lesson is designed for upper elementary or middle school students in grades 5-7. It could also be used in high school special education classrooms. What's Included: 7 Page PDF with three page student assignment, title page, and complete answer key.

Math, Percentages, Patterns, Decimals, Fractions, Geometry, Measurements, Place Value, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems
Encourage your middle school/intermediate math students to clearly explain their ideas about concepts (like ratio, area, and algebra) in complete sentences using appropriate vocabulary and relevant diagrams . These open-ended questions require students to explain how they figured out their answers or to judge options using their mathematic understanding. They are a great review of math concepts learned earlier in the year or in previous grades, and they allow students to practice critical thinking skills too. This bundle includes 20 journal entry topics so you can use two a month for the entire school year. You and your students can track their progress and development. The journals are not numbered, so you can use them in whatever order works best for your class. This could be a fantastic addition to your math program for the new school year! A rubric for easy marking is also included. Students are assessed on their process, vocabulary, completeness, and visuals. This allows you to easily see student progress if you assess one or two journals per term. You could also use them as artifacts for parent-teacher conferences. Topics covered: - fractions and percent: equivalent fractions, fraction and decimal relationships, division of fractions, fractions to percent, percent discounts - probability and data collection: flipping coins, surveys, experiments - geometry: area and perimeter, triangles, rotations, - pre-algebra: one-step equations, membership rates - place value: large numbers, decimals to thousandths - factors and ratios For each topic, students are encouraged to write in complete sentences and explain all of their thinking clearly and explicitly. Don't assume the teacher knows what you are thinking! They should also draw some diagrams to support their thinking. This could include area and perimeter models, fraction models, t-charts and tables, and more.
