Personalised Education

Should I say it louder for the people at the back?. 📣

Who says math isn’t romantic?! 🌹

If they’re exhausted, maybe we’re doing it wrong… 🤔

Is it time to change the way you educate?

The more research I read, the more I believe this!

Have you tried playing Colouring Fractions Bingo?

It’s a more complex version of your traditional fractions bingo where students need to develop their own fractions and fill the board before their peers.

Games are always a fun and typically hands on way of reinforcing learning. Why complete a worksheet when you can challenge your friends to a competition? Or work together and race against the clock?

How to play:
Give all players a Colour in Fractions card, two dice and a pen.
• Roll two dice and create a fraction using the numbers rolled.
• Colour in your card to represent the fraction.
• Can’t colour a fraction in?… Roll again!
• Continue this until someone has coloured in every fraction on their card.
• Yell bingo to win!

But with most games you can change up the rules to suit your learners.

Give it a go and let us know what you think.

Printable cards are available via the link in my bio.

I would not be surprised if this came out of the mouth of my high schoolers!

I started the day by cleaning up my resource folder, but ended up updating my hundreds chart designs instead. 🤷‍♀️Now sure how that happened but I think they look pretty cute.

Is your child craving mental stimulation during the holidays?

Strategy based board games, like Triominos, are the perfect way to give your child some extra mental stimulation while also focusing on their strategic thinking and problem solving skills. If your child needs an extra challenge, you can also give them the task of keeping score.

Here is a quick and easy fractions activity that is also a perfect way to display your child’s learning.

Nothing is more personal than one’s name and most children love seeing their name on the wall.

And if you want to combine other areas of learning with math, the ‘Words as Fractions’ is perfect for you. Use the word of the week or something interesting that you’ve recently learned - the options are endless.

Both activities come together as a single free download. Go grab yourself a copy!

When you’re done, please send us through a photo. We love seeing the different ways our resources have been used.

Does your child’s learning space encourage learning?

If you said yes, how do you know for sure?

The atmosphere of your learning space is more important than the activities you do in it. It can make or break a lesson or experience.

Do your child have enough space to move?
Do they have ownership over the space?
Is it visually appropriate/ appealing?
Is it stocked with all the materials they need?
Is their work proudly displayed?

Take a moment today and reflect on the space. Talk to your child about what they love about it as well as what changes could be made. Build yourself an area that makes learning inevitable!

And as always, continue to spark your love of learning! 🎇
