Tiny Polka Dot<\/h3>\n

Math for Love is an excellent resource website, and I highly recommend their two games, Tiny Polka Dot and Prime Climb. \"\"<\/a>They have also done an amazing thing, which is to release an open, free version of Tiny Polka Dots that parents can print at home, along with many ideas for games to play with the cards. I highly recommend this resource for math learners from 4-8 (and some of the games are good for fluency practice for even older students). You can find the free resource here<\/a>. or go to their website<\/a> if you want to order the boxed set.<\/p>\n

Earth Day Graphing\"\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

Jill Pelto<\/a> is an amazing scientist\/artist who fashions beautiful if disconcerting images from climate data. You can find a great lesson on this from NASA<\/a>, or just download the climate data<\/a> and graph paper<\/a> here. Challenge students to graph the data and then make an image that relates to climate change from the graph. More advanced
\nstudents can go to the NOAA<\/a> and choose the date range and which global data they wish to map. Younger students might be interested in making simple picture graphs of the types of garbage in their homes or that they see on a walk.<\/p>\n

Shapes Walk\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

G<\/span>o for a shapes walk. How many shapes can you see? Keep a notebook. Classify them, for older students, measure angles, for even older students, calculate the height of trees using trig! Check out The Walking Curriculum<\/a> for this and more ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Place Value Draw<\/a><\/h3>\n

Place Value Draw: Draw a chart to fill in. Remove face cds, shuffle rest. Take turns drawing cards, write the # down in your chart in the spot that will make the biggest numbers. After all spots are filled, add your numbers\u2026highest total wins. You can increase the difficulty by adding decimal points, using different operations (division would be tricky!) or by setting up fractions to make. You might even go with exponents or radicals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
