Have you started fractions yet? This set of Fraction Task Cards will help your students represent fractions in multiple ways. Use them as a stand-alone math center, or post them around the room and use them as a Gallery Walk activity!

If you are interested in teaching the area model, these task cards are a great way to get started. Students will build their understanding of the area model concretely using base ten blocks.

These task cards also get your students working with the area model in different ways such as:
- finding products
- finding missing factors
- considering different options for factors

Arrays are an essential visual for elementary students, as they allow them to see a visual representation of repeated addition or multiplication. Properties like the distributive property or commutative property are also easily illustrated with arrays.

Here is a quick rundown of what arrays are and how they can be used.

The near doubles strategy teaches us that we can make connections and form relationships between facts.

Ideally, we want to give our students the opportunity to explore this strategy and construct their own understanding.

Here are some ways to do just that: https://ed.gr/ecyy7

If you've never tried an escape room in your classroom before, you are in for a treat! I love escape rooms because they get kids excited about learning (even your reluctant ones), they foster cooperation and teamwork, and they are just plain FUN!

My escape rooms are formatted for use with large brown envelopes - no expensive lock boxes necessary! Simply prepare the materials for each obstacle/envelope, set aside 45 minutes to an hour to complete it in your classroom, and watch math come to life!

In this "Lost in the Woods" escape room, your students will complete six obstacles, ultimately surviving alone in the woods and finding their way back home.

Do you have a tub of Cuisenaire Rods in your classroom that you aren't sure what to do with? Number rods are a fantastic tool for reasoning with addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or fractions!

If you need some support getting started, here are some activities that will be helpful: https://rebrand.ly/bzqaseb
