WAYS TO USE TASK CARDS in your classroom: Ideas for fun holiday math activities and other ways to engage students before Winter break

• Play SCOOT- Place each card on a desk and give students the recording sheet. Students will scoot between stations as they solve problems. 

• Set up a scavenger hunt- place cards around the room as students do a gallery walk and work on solving problems in pairs or independently

• Four Corners for multiple choice- Determine which corner of the room will represent answers A, B, C, and D: display a digital version of the Task Card, give students thinking time, then students go to the corner of the answer they choose.

• Morning work, warm up, bell ringer- display task card digitally

• Small group guided practice- easily differentiate and scaffold in small math groups

• Mini lessons- guide and model how to solve word problems for students

• Independent practice during math rotations or math centers

• Partner work during math rotations or math centers

• Exit ticket or check for understanding using Google Forms

*********************************************************

HOW TO UTILIZE DIGITAL Task Cards?

• Project task cards on the whiteboard using the Google slides version 
• Students complete task cards directly in Google Form (use as a checkpoint, assessment, check for understanding)- super easy NO PREP paperless option
• Students complete task cards in Google slides or using the physical task cards, record answers on the record sheet, and then transfer answers to Google form.
