St. Patrick's Day

Magical math is a common theme around St. Patrick's Day. Hopefully you can get in the fun spirit of being green at least if only for a day! My students are still working on grid coordinates and fractions as we move into spring. These brightly colored activities are just what we need as the weather turns warmer.

Magically Delicious Multiplying Fractions Center
Magically Delicious
This activity center has students using real world math by multiplying and dividing fractions. Given a recipe, students must first divide the fraction by the number of servings the recipe makes and then multiply by the number of leprechauns being served to determine how much is needed. This is a wonderful activity for small groups. I had my students do a contest. In teams they had to figure out ingredients for one to six leprechauns. The first team to get all figures correct, were crowned the winner. My kids devoured this activity! This center comes with 4 recipe cards, 6 serving cards and 4 answer cards. This activity comes in the St. Patrick's Day theme only.
