Description:
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 Pocket 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!
