Welcome CCSD Numeracy LeadersTraining, Grades 3 - 8May 27, 2014[2013-14 School Year]

“Math Moves”The purpose is to incorporate

movement into reviewing math facts. It has been proven that our brains work

better when we are moving or when we take a “brain break” during a lesson.

•Oh no! The oculist spilt his coffee all over the calculations he did for the Giant’s new glasses. Below is the information he does know, but he’s missing some the numbers. See if you can use proportions to help him figure out the missing measurements.

• *Be sure to set up your proportion & show your work!• 1. The average human’s ear length is 2 inches compared to the

length of the sides of a pair of glasses which is 5 inches. We know the Giant’s ears were 22 inches in length. How long should the oculist make the sides of his glasses? _____________________

All Activities have directions and game boards or premade printables to use in your instruction and practice. These are set up by domain and standard. There are multiple activities for most standards and are very user friendly. These activities don’t replace direct conceptual instruction, but are rather the we-do, you-do portion of your lesson.

Additionally this site offers materials for purchase to reinforce math vocabulary, class projects and math journals for all grade levels.

Spending $100• Students get $100 to spend (pretend). They may not

spend the $100 on one single item. • They make a list of three categories for spending.• Students “shop” using sale papers and print outs of

clothing, toys, games, etc. from online.• Students round to the nearest dollar to create

subtotals and a grand total.• Students make a bar graph showing how they spent

their money. • Students share their strategies and budgeting ideas

with the class.

I have who has!We played different versions of the game:

•Order of operations•Percent fraction, decimal•Algebraic expressions•Multiplication Facts•Math Vocabulary
