After reading “Making Number Talks Matter” by Cathy Humphreys and Ruth Parker, I was inspired to build on their discussions of number sense.

**** I strongly recommend the book!

The goal of these activities is to ultimately get students thinking about numbers in more ways than one. When we ask them to find the amount without counting, we ask them to find and create patterns. When I say “without counting” I mean that look they get—where they close one eye and squint and point to the objects as they count from their seats. Students will start to realize symmetry, groupings, and patterns.

These pages are intended for use with a projector but could be adjusted for small group instruction. The first page is intended for the initial display. Have students count the objects silently and independently. One students have an answer they can give a signal to show they have a number in mind—how you choose the signal is up to you but a simple thumbs up in front of their chest (so as not to distract or discourage their classmates) would suffice. The second page puts the same image in the corner but leaves room for notes. Here is where you put student responses in any organized fashion you prefer—the important part here is to make sure you are recording ONLY the answers (keep your poker face!). Once you have student responses, ask students to defend their reasoning or find errors in words while you scribe their thinking on the board. This is a great opportunity for students to see that there is more than one way to approach a problem and come out with an accurate answer. As you progress, it is easy to transfer their thinking into more generalized “rules” in math.

There are 35 problems total.

Another great thing about using these images to count and find patterns, is utilizing the math practices daily!

The goal of these activities is to ultimately get students thinking about numbers in more ways than one. When we ask them to find the amount without using pencil and paper, we ask them to find and create patterns. When I say “without counting” I mean that look they get—where they close one eye and squint and point to the numbers as they compute from their seats. Students will start to realize symmetry, groupings, and patterns.

These pages are intended for use with a projector but could be adjusted for small group instruction. The first page is intended for the initial display. Have students mentally solve the problem silently and independently. One students have an answer they can give a signal to show they have a number in mind—how you choose the signal is up to you but a simple thumbs up in front of their chest (so as not to distract or discourage their classmates) would suffice.

What’s included:

1. 10 Grid Method Worksheets

• These worksheets provide grids for students to practice the grid method. Each sheet allows students to hone their skills by drawing within the provided squares, helping them become proficient in accurately enlarging images.

2. 10 Pre-Gridded Scale Factor Project Worksheets

• These worksheets contain images already divided into grids, designed to be used as a reference for the scale factor project. Students will use these pre-gridded images to accurately scale and draw larger versions on poster boards.

3. Detailed Instructions

• Step-by-step instructions guide students on how to set up their posters and create grids. The instructions cover everything from dividing the poster board to labeling the grid, drawing the image, tracing and coloring. This ensures that students understand each part of the process and can complete their project with confidence.

4. Comprehensive Grading Rubric

• The included rubric provides clear criteria for evaluating the scale factor project. It covers key aspects such as grid creation, grid labeling, drawing accuracy, tracing and clean-up, coloring/painting, background and overall effort and presentation. This rubric helps ensure a fair and consistent assessment of each student’s work.

5. Color Reference Digital Images

• Included is a digital file of each image to be used as a color reference of each image. These are useful for posting as a digital copy for students to use as a reference for colors if needed, especially since black and white copies may print slightly dark. This ensures that students can accurately replicate all lines and colors in their projects.

All ideas in this bundle are original and crafted with educational excellence in mind. The images were created with the assistance of AI, ensuring high quality and accuracy. These resources are designed to provide an engaging and effective learning experience for your students.

Line Art #1 - Coordinate Plane - Plotting Points

Engage your students in a dynamic exploration of mathematical creativity with this hands-on project. This activity empowers students to transform mathematical concepts into visual masterpieces, making learning both exciting and visually stimulating.

Product Features:

1. Four Unique Sets of Ordered Pairs: Students receive four carefully curated sets of ordered pairs, carefully designed to produce distinct and aesthetically pleasing parabolic curves. Each set offers a different perspective, allowing for a diverse range of artistic expressions.
2. Plot and Connect: With the provided ordered pairs in hand, students plot the points on a coordinate grid within the confines of -20 to 20 on both the x and y axes. Using a ruler, they connect the dots, revealing the graceful curves that emerge when straight lines are meticulously connected.
3. Mathematical Creativity: This activity bridges the gap between mathematics and art, encouraging students to appreciate the beauty of parabolic curves. By visualizing mathematical concepts, students gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between equations and graphical representations.
4. Versatile Learning Tool: Suitable for various age groups and proficiency levels, this activity can be tailored to fit into diverse curricula. Whether as a standalone lesson, a group project, or a creative math class supplement, it adapts seamlessly to different educational settings.
5. Encourages Exploration: As students experiment with different sets of ordered pairs, they explore the impact of varying coefficients and constants on the resulting parabolic curves. This fosters a sense of curiosity and experimentation, enhancing their problem-solving skills.

Educational Benefits:

• Reinforces Graphing Skills: Students reinforce their graphing skills by accurately plotting points on a coordinate plane.
• Enhances Spatial Reasoning: Connecting the dots with precision hones students' spatial reasoning abilities.
• Promotes Critical Thinking: Analyzing the patterns formed by connecting points fosters critical thinking and a deeper understanding of parabolic functions.

Bring mathematics to life in your classroom with our Line Art Activity. Watch as your students transform numerical data into captivating visual representations, creating a unique blend of art and mathematics that sparks a love for learning.
