Morning Math Routines. Growing Number Line Each day a student adds one post-it to the growing number line. In this case, a kindergarten student wrote the number and posted it. The student then leads the class in counting the days they have been in school. Many teachers now arrange this growing number line into a growing hundred board configuration, varying the color for each group of ten. This morning routine supports students as they develop proficiency with the concept of "one more" or "next number" in counting. Requiring students to write the numbers (with appropriate support modifications, as necessary) provides practice in forming the numbers and growing experience in place value as students watch what changes and what stays the same.
See Morning Math Routines: Photo Gallery for additional pictures. School Day Count Each day a student adds one straw or craft stick to the ones pocket or cup. School Day Count Poster Calendar Mrs. Coins for the Date Each day a student adds another penny to the coins-to-date.
Multiplication. Place value. Time. Fuss Free Number of the Day. CAMT is over, but my reporting isn't. I snapped some pics of these number of the day posters one of the presenters had up, because I liked that they showed how easy it can be to incorporate good math into your daily routine. Notice also that they are easily adapted for different grade levels, going from a 2-digit number in the first example to a 4-digit in the last. Pressed for time? Do a number of the week, like the 2nd example.
It's no secret that that kids get bored with the same...ol'...thing. This approach makes it very easy to change things up. The presenter told use she had multiple posters, and she often switched in new ones to keep the activities fresh. Other ideas for number of the day: I'm sure you can think of many more! Math Problem-Solving: Mathematician's Chair - Kindergarten Kindergarten. Mathematician’s Chair is an opportunity for children to learn from each other. They learn new strategies by listening to someone else’s strategy. They reinforce their own skills by explaining them to others.
They work through mistakes and misconceptions during quality discussions with their peers. Mathematician’s Chair is a vital part of kindergarten problem solving! Mathematician’s Chair in my room takes many forms. In the beginning of the year, you will usually find us sitting in a circle. Other times, a child might actually sit in a chair (my teacher chair) and show and explain their solution. Before you begin Mathematician’s Chair, talk with the children about what it means to be a good listener. Then teach the kids how to respond appropriately to someone else’s solution. We talk a lot about hurtful words vs. helpful words (not just in mathematician’s chair—but in every part of our day!)
Every mistake is an opportunity to learn! So it is OK to make them. SCHOOL / great concrete way to teach tally marks.
How Did you Do It? Math Talk Anchor Chart. The Lesson Plan Diva: Freebies, ideas and Science Activities! I hope everyone had a wonderful Monday! We are working on estimation and greater than and less than this week. I have started introducing both over the past couple of weeks and they students are really loving it! I wanted to share with you 2 of their most favorite activities.
I have done these every year and they are always a big hit! When we are learning about estimation, I have them completing several activities where they are making their ‘best guess’ on sets of objects. This is always a favorite because it involves Froot Loops! Have them trace their hands with a crayon and then discuss how many Froot Loops they think will fill their handprint. Next we have or Alligator Greater activity. We are also working on light and shadow in science and my friend Katie from Dishing It Out makes the greatest science and social studies activities! Next they did an activity at their seat and I left up the visual on the Lady bug unsorted. It was a very good activity and the kids enjoyed it! Kindergarten / Math thinking maps. A First Grade Blog: Number of Days in School. Each day during calendar we count the number of days we have been in school. We first count them using straws in a place value pocket chart like this one.
We then turn the number over on the Hundreds Chart. Prior to turning over the number, the calendar helper asks their classmates to identify what number will come next and to make a prediction about its color pattern. Our numbers alternate in an AB color pattern. The students also identify if the number is even or odd. Kindergarten / Love this- I do it weekly! Give it a try- your students will amaze you:) Numbers in the Teens (They start with a 1!!!!) song. How Children Learn Number Concepts by Didax Education. A Better Use for Flashcards. It's the end of the year, and I've been out helping the grade levels with their math materials inventory. One thing I ran across in a couple of the planning rooms was flashcards.
In the scheme of all things CRA, flash cards are totally abstract. They do not foster the understanding of the facts presented. So how do you use the flashcards for more effective learning? Take it back to the concrete and representational stages. Looking for more CRA? Number lines game. Ohmiword y'all, I am exhausted already, and it's only Tuesday?!! This week we have been comparing traditional and contemporary folk/fairy tales. On Monday, we read the traditional story, The Ugly Duckling. After reading it, my kiddos completed a problem/solution graphic organizer. I just made some puzzle piece tracers for them to use. Most of puzzles didn't fit back together so well haha This cracks me right up! The next day (which would be today), we read this contemporary version of "The Ugly Duckling. " After reading both stories, we made a venn diagram to compare/contrast We will continue working on other fairy tales for the rest of this week and next! In Math, we've been working with number lines, number patterns, and number order.
So, I gave each set of partners a sentence strip, and they made a number line for numbers 1-30. We've been playing this fun game all week, "Guess My Number. " Here's to looking ahead to next week's plans... we are introducing adding coins. That's it for me! Bingo games misc. math.
Skip counting. Math Flash Cards. Fractions. Ten frames. Lines.pdf. Maths Charts || Math Posters by Jenny Eather. Jungle 120 Chart.pdf. BillsTeachingNotes - Numeracy Teaching Notes. Math Notebooks. Last school year I used math notebooks with my students. The notebooks are full of charts, examples, pictures, vocabulary, notes (of course), etc. I kept my own notebook, one for each class (in order to model). We filled them in together each time we wrote in it.
I LOVE how they turned out. I actually kept them over the summer instead of sending them home with the kids (not because I loved them that much but because I wanted to make sure the notebooks actually made it to the 5th grade with the kids!) I plan on personally delivering the notebooks to my former students on the 2nd day of school. We MUST have a table of contents; helps us keep organized. These Polygon cards are available in my TPT Store. Vocabulary words are put in the back of the notebook, starting on the last page (and working toward the front). The use of color in the notebooks is definitely encouraged!
Guided Math: Part 4. Okay, so it took long enough! My life is just all sorts of crazy right now.... let's see... I'm a wife who actually enjoys cooking, a mom to a 2 year old boy and soon to be (Feb. 1) a new baby boy, a full-time teacher of 4th grade students, an active church member, and a full-time graduate student pursuing my Ed.S. So, do I have enough going on or what? I'm basically just trying to survive my last two semesters of grad. school. I'm so looking forward to May 2012! I do enjoy blogging, and I really want to find push time in my schedule to do it more often. Okay.. back to math! Here's the inside! The math calendar is where they write everything down from our math calendar board. Here is the calendar board. Here's the schedule we follow.. Monday- Review & go over math calendar from previous week Tuesday- 15 minute rotation Wednesday- Thursday- Friday- Students may complete calendar once they finish their weekly assessment The calendar is a combination of standards we will work on all year.
Greater or Less Than. Today was a much better day! Sorry for the whining yesterday. We started our plant unit and planted seeds today. Even though it was still bad weather and we had to get messy inside with the dirt and all, my kiddos loved it and they were pretty well behaved. In math we have been reviewing a lot. Some of the time we spent with greater and less than. So here is a little activity I'm putting in Math Stations for more practice. Very easy, hardly any prep. P.S. to my post yesterday on 10 more 10 less (click HERE to read it) about why it went better this year than other years. 10 more 10 less freebie. So Sunday I'm walking out of church and standing there in the hall was Jonas from Survivor!
Yeah, can you believe it. I knew he was from Lehi but I didn't know he lived just a neighborhood over from me. When I saw him he said hi and I said hi back. But I couldn't figure out where I knew him from. On to school things. We worked on 10 more 10 less today in math. Well, I hope your day was better than mine. 10 frame.pdf. Buzzing for Dice Addition and Subtraction. Buzzing for Dice Addition and Subtraction Updated Dice and Dominoes are useful manipulatives for helping children understand addition, subtraction, and even operations and algebraic thinking as described in first grade Common Core Standards. This post is about the importance of subitizing and why it is very important for families to play games involving dice and dominoes when children are young. DOMINO ADDITION by Lynette Long, Pd.D. is a great introduction to addition. The page photos are large and there are hidden answers (in plain site if you are the adult who can read the instructions) so that children may work on solutions and parents can instantly know if the child is right or wrong.
On the page with a one composed of dominoes, it says: "Point to the domino that has a total of ONE spot. " What's the Missing Number? The last activity in this packet is the easiest one included and is a matching game which is basically addition. Be happy learning! National Library of Virtual Manipulatives.
