Focusing on the Fundamentals of Math K-8 - From ON
Rating
0.0 stars

"This guide is intended to support teachers’ ongoing efforts in building students’ knowledge and skills in mathematics. It focuses attention on the content of expectations in The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 1–8: Mathematics, 2005 that deal with fundamental mathematics concepts and skills (specifically, expectations in the Number Sense and Numeration strand and expectations that relate to number properties in the Patterning and Algebra strand). The guide outlines steps to achieving the knowledge and skills described in these expectations and suggests how to make more timely connections that will better support student learning. A strong foundation in the concepts and skills emphasized here will prepare students for success in high school, and ensure that they have a set of essential skills for employment and responsible citizenship in the future."

There are excellent charts included that organize foundational skills by grade grouping. These charts start on page 5.

SAME BUT DIFFERENT MATH
Rating
0.0 stars

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.

Which One Doesn't Belong
Rating
0.0 stars

Math puzzles to get students talking about their mathematical thinking. The site provides a collection of shape, number and graph sets. Each activity has four images/numbers, students then need to pick which one doesn't belong. But the trick is this, the puzzles do not have one correct answer. This can lead to interesting conversation and descriptions of what the student notices about the arrangement.

If you think up your own, you can submit them to the site.
