Math fact fluency:
- www.math-aids.com (this site has numerous different math worksheets, not just math facts)
- www.mathfactcafe.com
Review math from previous years:
- www.tenmarks.com
- time telling
- counting coins
- "how many more/how many less" word problems (Sara has 19 pencils. Tom has 8 pencils. How many more does Sara have?)
Math in the real world:
We want students to make that connection between math and their day to day lives.
- grocery store: money, multiplication (1lb of potatoes is $1.00, how much would be 3lbs?), sum and difference
- recipes: sum and difference, ratios/percentages (1 serving calls for 2 tablespoons of sugar, what if I want to make two servings?)
- traveling: sum and difference (It's 15 miles to granny's house. We've driven 6 miles already. How many more miles until we get to have fresh-baked cookies?)
- taking a walk: (What shape is that stop sign? Is that number on the house an even or odd number? That dog walker is walking 4 dogs. Each dog has 4 legs. How many legs are with that dog walker).
Mental math:
Standing in line at the store? Driving somewhere? Taking the pooch for a walk? Throw out some basic math problems! Talk about numbers and patterns! Math is everywhere!
- what are 4 tens? 9 tens? 12 tens?
- what is 4 hundreds, 5 tens, and 7 ones?
- what is 45 + 20?
- what is 65 - 15?
- multiplication
- skip counting
