Picture
yourself standing in front of your class drilling your students on math
facts. You ask the class, "What is three times three?" One of your
quicker students shouts out "Nine!" Suddenly, several voices follow
shouting out "Nine!". Does this sound familiar to you? At least you
know one student knows the right answer and the others can repeat it!
Wouldn't it be nice to have a way to gather immediate and accurate
feedback from every student so you can quickly assess each student's
comprehension level?
In this
very focused book (appropriate for grades K-6), you will have students
make their own "Palm Pockets". A Palm Pocked is a simple tool
that allows students to quickly provide a numerical answer to a
question you have just asked. When you're ready, you simply have the
students hold up their own Palm Pocket that displays their answer, not
their neighbors!
Also
included are over 250 fun mental math activities that get
increasingly more difficult. Activities cover Addition, Subtraction,
Multiplication, Division, Money, Time, Fractions, Decimals, Place Value
and more! Following is an example:
- Start
with midnight.
- Add 1
hour and 30 minutes.
- Take
away 15 minutes.
- How many
more minutes would you need to add to make it 2 am?
All
students are involved!
All students are participating without hesitation!
All students are learning together!
