Here’s how we celebrated Pi Day this year in 1st Grade. This was my first time celebrating this day, so I’m sure next year will be even better.

A lesson video I posted to teachertube on how we celebrated the 100th day of school this year! (a little late, but better late than never…)

The understanding of exponents can be a tricky concept to teach mainly because the amount of rules that go along with it. To make it easier and a bit more exciting for my students I gave them the option to do a parody song to get a better understanding of exponents. This assignment alone has been something that my Algebra 1 students bring up…Read More

We’re reviewing patterns and pattern types! My students love using manipulatives to show their understanding

Bringing toilet paper back to the classroom! My students are using toilet paper squares to model percents of a whole number. Each student is given 10 connected squares of toilet paper along with some counters used to model each whole number. Guided the students in a whole class setting, asking the right questions will lead them to each square…Read More

A great resource I have found to apply mathematical thinking is The Stock Market Game. http://www.stockmarketgame.org They have lessons to help you and your students understand stocks and all the math that goes along with it. They even break it down to grade levels 4-5, 6-8 and 9-12. If you are looking for an authentic way to analyze data or practice…Read More

Students worked with a partner and chose from three cookie recipes. They chose the cookie that wanted to make. They had directions to follow: go shopping for the ingredients, calculate the amount of each ingredient they would need, and how much they would cost to make. We plan a culminating event where students actually bring in their cookie,…Read More

One of the new additions to my room this year has been white boards around the walls!!! Talk about one excited math teacher!!! The past few weeks we have been using the boards during partner work and problem solving. They love working together and I can assess while they are working right in front of me! I love it!!!

Two days before thanksgiving break calls for robot and coding exploration. Stayed tuned for updated math lessons with dash and dot!!! FYI these can be found on amazon for a cheaper price….I may can help you out with some lesson ideas if you’re interested as well!!!

Here is another solving equation activity that I created. This one is involves multi-step equations including equations whose solution is no solution and infinite solution. This activity has a little more teacher prep involved. I always print this document on card stock/ and or laminate it so I can reuse it year after year. I also cut out the…Read More

Here is a scavenger hunt that I use when reviewing equations with 8th grade. I post these cards around the room in a random order. I usually have my students work in groups of 2 but not more than 3. They start at any card and complete the question. That answer leads them to another card with another question. There are letters in each card at…Read More

I know I’m late on posting but this Halloween activity could also be used for thanksgiving or Christmas as well. We had a mini lesson on 2D shapes discussing the attributes and characteristics and they had to use that information to create a geometric Halloween figure. It really opened my eyes at how many misconceptions they had and how this…Read More

Hey guys…..my name is Elisha Lewis and I would like to share an awesome way to get your students thinking and asking questions about MATH!!! If you haven’t heard about QFT, it stands for question formulation technique. These are all of my Q focuses that I have used for 3rd and 4th grade thus far. I will update my list as the year goes on.…Read More

Pi Day is coming soon! A great book to read and interact along with your students is Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi by: Cindy Neuschwander.

You can also add in a Pi scavenger…Read More
