The following resource contains the assets (or resources) to accompany the Sask DLC Mathematics 8 course. Please note that this is not the content of the course, but the assets used to support and deliver it. The files are organized in a zip folder and a collection. 

Tag Line: Challenging math problems worth solving

A collection of math problems that require some good thinking, and maybe a few attempts. The idea is to move beyond procedural understanding.

The collections are sorted from grades Kinder to High School (for common core standards in the US - but probably transfer well). The problems usually involve some blank spots which must be filled with numbers. In many of the problems you can not use a digit more than once.

Like similar sites that provide these problem style questions, you can submit your own to add to the collection.

PBS has created and shared tons of media rich, engaging, digital lessons for a wide range of grade levels and subject areas.

Find FREE videos, interactives, lesson plans, and more just for teachers like you. Choose from lots of filters that will customize your search so you can find exactly what you're looking for.

Patient Problem Solving is a method of solving problems that you don't
already know how to solve. You are required to ask questions in order to
even start solving the problem. Sometimes those questions are asked of the
teacher, sometimes other students, and sometimes Google. For example,
students are asked to use a ticker tape timer to calculate their speed. First of
all students (and maybe you as the teacher) need to figure out what a ticker
tape timer does. There are a variety of ways to solve these problems, and
creativity will help them get to an answer.

Join over 20 million students, teachers, and parents using our free, curriculum-aligned math game for Grades 1 - 8.

Prodigy is a free, Pokemon-style math game that has been proven to improve student scores and confidence! It is aligned to the Ontario curriculum for grades 1-6, and features content from each of the five major strands.

Prodigy was designed with three primary goals in mind:
1. To create deep engagement so students double their math practice time at home.
2. To equip teachers with reports and assessment tools to inform their instruction.
3. To provide curriculum aligned content for free, regardless of a student’s demographic.

Teachers can create assignments and assessments, align them curriculum, and check in on progress. The program automatically adapts to students who are struggling or excelling, but teacher's also have the option to override grade levels to adapt and modify for individual students. Parents can connect and see what their child is working on, and students can access the program from any computer or tablet.

**NOTE - For FREE summer or at home access, ask your child's teacher to create an account!

Same But Different is a powerful routine for use in math classrooms. The activity of same but different is an activity where two things are compared, calling attention to both how they are the same and how they are different.

This apparent paradox is the beauty of the activity. It is important to notice the word BUT. Instead of making a choice – am I going to prove that these are the same or am I going to prove that they are different – students are considering how two items can be both. This is a critically important distinction.

Not same OR different, rather same BUT different.

There are categories for addition/subtraction, early numeracy, multiplication/division, measurement, place value, fractions, ratios, geometry, algebra, and high school math.
