Addition...

I'm teaching a tutoring class this semester for those of our kids that are just SO CLOSE to scoring the next level on their FSA. We've got 33 lessons and 20 days to teach them...do the math...this isn't going to work for a group that needs to have the lessons slowed down in the first place. The other math teacher & I sat down and figured out which lesson to cut and do with quick reviews (surprise...all the fraction stuff was kept)..and another Math Ladder was born.

Math Ladders

I've added a new Math Ladders to my growing series. And, it's one I've been needing in my classroom!!

I find myself putting at least one multiplication & one division math ladder in my centers rotation every week. My fourth graders need constant review of these concepts. And, once they learn the center, they're easy to switch out on the kids.

Skills in this Set:
Set 3.8 A – Factors are Multiples of 10 and 1,000
Set 3.8 B – Factors are Multiples of 10 and 100
Set 3.8 C – Second Factor is a Multiple of 10
Set 3.8 D - All Digits Are Low, No Zeros
Set 3.8 E – No Zeros
Set 3.8 F – No Zeros
Set 3.8 G –Problem Has a Zero in the First Factor (not multiples of 10)
Set 3.8 H - Mixed
Set 3.8 I - Mixed
Set 3.8 J - Mixed

Game Boards

I posted a few new game boards tonight and started working on a holiday series. I love how easy it is to change up the feel of a center without a lot of work just by using a different game board. The kids think they're doing something Christmas-related one minute and a month later they're working on Snowmen or Valentine's Day...and, I didn't even change the task cards!

Use these with any set of task cards and your centers are instantly updated for the month.
