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.

Grids & Coordinates

Grids & Coordinates

This center takes ordered pairs to a new level. These individual activity cards have students writing ordered pairs, identifying ordered pair locations, determining quadrant locations and using simple decimals in the ordered pairs. This center comes with 40 cards and 4 answer cards. It is offered in the St. Patrick Day theme and a Spring Training Baseball theme. You receive both themes in a single purchase!

Algebra Centers

My elementary students get a kick out of doing algebra! Each time I tell my students we will be working on algebra, they get excited. For Valentine's Day, I made two quick centers to play with algebra. I also made each center in both valentine theme and basketball theme so that we can use it again as a review in March. These centers lend themselves easily for small groups, independent work and great for pair shares.

Elementary Algebra Math Centers

The Equation Writing Center contains 16 word problem cards and one answer key. Each card has a word problem than can be solved with an algebraic equation. Students have to choose which equation will provide the answer. This is a much different skill than just giving an answer. My students love being challenged with what they call fun math. Students can use in small groups or independently.
