Let Goofy Gorilla help your students practice Roman Numerals! This Goofy Gorilla card game allows students to practice identifying Roman Numerals 1-25 in the classic ‘Old Maid’ game format.

Check out the preview page to see they types of equations on the cards . Also, included are five “Goofy Gorilla” cards (my version of the ‘Old Maid’) and an instruction card.

My Turn to Learn QR Code Task Cards: Adding Fractions with Unlike Denominators

(0)
Turn to Learn task cards are fun to use because students love using a QR code reader to check their answers. This product contains: • 24 Task Cards. Each card has a fraction addition equation. • Students will need to know: -How to find the common denominator -Write equivalent fractions. -Add equivalent fractions. -Simplify the answer to lowest terms. This does involve writing an improper fraction as a mixed number on a few of the cards. Please see preview page to see an example of the problems. • 24 cards with a corresponding QR code. The QR codes are the answers to the problems. • 2-sided workspace recording sheet that students can use to solve the problems. Students needing more space will have to use their own paper. • Traditional answer key for those not wanting to use the QR code component. To Assemble: Print off all task card problems. Then print the QR codes on the back side. Be sure the Question numbers match up. I like to run task cards on card stock and laminate for durability. Cut on dotted lines. Put cards in sequential order, with cover and directions on top. The margin on the left side of each card is for binding (or hole punch). I prefer to bind. How to Use: Students use the 2-sided workspace recording sheet to solve each of the 24 questions. Students then use a QR reader to check answers as they go or after they’ve finished a predetermined amount of questions.

Fractions - R.E.D. (Review Every Day) PART 2 (Second Edition)

(0)
Give students the review they need to master the skill! If there is one thing I have learned since I began teaching math to 5th graders 10 years ago, it is that students must practice a skill repeatedly. Just because a student is able to change an improper fraction to a mixed number for the chapter test, does not mean they will remember the skill a month later. In fact, I found this to be so true, I found it necessary to create an additional set of, RED-Fractions. So, this packet contains an additional 28 quick half-sheet reviews focused on fractions. Note that while the format is identical to the first set, the problems are different. This Review Every Day includes the following fraction skills: Reducing fractions to lowest terms, comparing fractions, ordering fractions, writing equivalent fractions, finding the least common demoninator, adding & subtracting fractions with alike and unlike denominators, multiplying and dividing fractions with a whole number, multiplying and dividing two fractions, multiplying and dividing mixed numbers, changing improper fractions to mixed numbers and changing mixed numbers to improper fractions. Please note that this packet does NOT teach the skill, but only serves to review the skill after you have taught it to the students. Each review has anywhere from 8 to 12 questions. The skill sequence is in increasing difficulty. So, if you already have the first set of RED Fractions, I would suggest you do number 1 from set 1, then do number one from set 2. And continue that way through both sets. Each review is a half-sheet. Lesson 1 and Lesson 3 are on page 1. Lesson 2 and Lesson 4 are on page 2. I do this intentionally. If you run page 1 on the front and page 2 on the back and then cut the sheet in half, you will have Fractions 1 on the front and Fractions 2 on the back. The entire document is set up this way. This saves paper, and allows the teacher to teach the lessons in order and in a more efficient way. However, if you have both sets, then I would recommend running set 1 on front and set 2 of the corresponding numbers on back. At the back of the packet you will find the answer key which provides the answers to all questions.

Turn to Learn task cards are fun to use because students love using a QR code reader to check their answers. This product contains: • 24 Task Cards.

Please see preview page to see an example of the problems. • 24 cards with a corresponding QR code. The QR codes are the answers to the problems. • 2-sided workspace recording sheet that students can use to solve the problems. Students needing more space will have to use their own paper. • Traditional answer key for those not wanting to use the QR code component. To Assemble: Print off all task card problems.
