Game Collection:

As a teacher it is always a good idea to have those games that you can pick up quickly to fill those random few minutes of down time. I did not create these games, these are games which I have used in my classroom for so long that I do not remember where they came from. I have simply written out the rules to share with you to help you fill those moments.

My students love these games. After the first couple of run throughs of rules and practice they are able to get their dice and go on their own when instructed. Often when I have early finishers and I know they need a bit of a brain break that is not too distracting, I send them off to play one of these games.

The game "Petals on the Rose" was shared with me by a student who had gone Math Camp over 10 years ago. I use it at least once a week as an end of day activity. The kids love trying to figure out the rules!

What's included:

• Google Slides of Game Rules

How is this resource useful:

• Fun games!
• Engaging time filler.
• Practice math skills.

This an outline/example of a small mini lesson used for adding with regrouping. It uses the Pear Deck add-on on Google Drive.

Pear Deck is an add-on for Google Slides that allows you to create interactive Google Slides for you and your students to use. I use them for a mini lesson whenever I am teaching/review content in math. It allows you to create slides that have different ways of interacting with them. You can monitor what the students are doing from the teach dashboard, lock their screens to keep it from being a distraction, and save the work that the students do on the Pear Deck to use it for reflection or even formative assessments.

In the slide it includes adding with the "home" method. This is just what I have called adding with base 10 blocks for my students.

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated/paid by Pear Deck. I just love the resource.
