This amazing site from Alberta has interactive for all the strands.
These could be used by students or in small group instruction or as a whole class.
These Notebook files feature math games and learning activities for Kindergarten to Grade 3 students
The Math Learning Centre has a wide variety of high quality math apps and virtual manipulatives to support student math sense. All apps have web, android or apple options.
This resource is a "cheat sheet" of the math learning continuum based upon the work by Michael Battista. His work is designed to work with any curriculum, Cognition-Based Assessment and Teaching will enable you to better understand and respond to your students’ learning needs and help you choose instructional activities that are best for them. These cheat sheets show the task analysis. In his books, Battista provides assessment tasks and suggestions for teaching a skill.
Ideas and activities that use Two of Everything, One Grain of Rice and the King's Chessboard to introduce students to function machines and input/output tables. Links to appropriate templates are also provided.
Two of Everything by Lily Toy Hong recounts a Chinese folk tale. The farmer finds a magic pot which doubles everything that is put into it. This humorous story is a great introduction to function machines and input/output tables as teachers make the transition to the "doubling pot" and recording information in an input/output table.
Teaching vocabulary is an important and essential part of any math program. Teachers need to model proper language during math lessons and encourage students to use the same vocabulary. Being able to use correct vocabulary indicates student understanding. Vocabulary rich environments ex: word walls, concept posters also encourage student's to use proper terminology.
These L to J resources include all of the instructions, files, charts, word lists, word cards and SMART Notebook files to get you started with teaching the vocabulary rich concepts in Make Math Sense K-9.
Use this activity to have your students find numbers in their world and have a discussion about why those numbers might be important.
This resource can be used to further students understanding of area and perimeter (including volume as an extension) using real life examples of planning and designing spaces.
Original math puzzles, games and problems - organized by grade.

Math 9: Play Structure Rubric
REQUIREMENTS:
For this project, you must create a:
• Structure that is kid-friendly
• Structure show complexity and creativity
CRITERIA:
• Use a minimum of 6 3-D shapes, including at least one right rectangular prism, one right triangular prism and one cylinder in the play structure
• Include dimensions in your model/sketch (units)
• Calculate the total surface area of each 3-D object.
• Calculate the composite area of the entire 3-D object (Play Structure)
o Considering door, openings and overlaps
Here is an example how you can use PowToon to reinforce math skills. Students created videos to explain concepts in their enriched class - and then those videos were used to help teach the concepts in their math classes.
A student example is included.
My goal for this year was to add math games to my repertoire of teaching strategies as part of my regular classroom routine. I looked at this as the first step to moving towards a guided math program. Also our PLT group was working on ways to increase the level of math fact knowledge in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The Saskatchewan Curriculum recognizes that “mental mathematics is a combination of cognitive strategies that enhance flexible thinking and number sense. It is calculating mentally and reasoning about the relative size of quantities without the use of external memory aids. Mental mathematics enables students to determine answers and propose strategies without paper and pencil. It improves computational fluency and problem solving by developing efficiency, accuracy, and flexibility.” I also wanted to increase opportunities for communication and collaboration. Some of my math games involved building, creating and problem solving. Others involved competition and cooperation. I created a brochure that highlighted the favorite games of the students and it also provides links where teachers can find these games.
