Review division facts and build number sense with these 32 division scoot cards featuring a fun Christmas theme .
**********************************************************************
There are two sets of Recording Sheets (Numbers 1-16 and 17-32). Students have a choice between the scaffolded (to elicit the desired response) and blank sectioned. An answer key is provided to have students independently check their answers.
**********************************************************************
The division skills reinforced in this pack are:
✓ writing a division fact for a multiplication sentence
✓ writing a division fact for a given array
✓ writing the missing number in a division fact
✓ writing the quotient of two given numbers
✓ Identifying the dividend and divisor in a division sentence
✓ writing a division fact for a given illustration
✓ problem solving using illustrations
**********************************************************************
HOW I USED THE PACKS IN THIS BUNDLE:
♦ For this 32 scoot pack, you may break up the activity and have students do cards 1-16 during one session and 17-32 the next. There are 2 recording sheets for this purpose.
♦ I generally have cards 1-16 placed on one section of the classroom walls, and cards 17-32 on the opposite side. Students solve at their own pace. This is to cater to all; students who would perhaps need more time and the early finishers.
**There is so much fun and excitement as kids walk around the classroom solving the cards. They seem to be racing to finish them all :)
*********************************************************************
PREPARATION:
♦ Stack and perfectly align sheets. Cut along task card borders carefully. Work with 3 sheets at a time for better manipulation.
♦ Laminate cards for durability. There are four cards on a single sheet.
♦ Store cards in zip-loc bags (small plastic pouches). Label with the specific number operations skill featured.
♦ Place cards and copies of Recording Sheets (2 options) in file folder.
♦ Glue file folder cover (included) on folder.
**********************************************************************
SUGGESTED USE
→ Small group rotations (cards may be rotated among small groups of students)
→ Math Centres
* Have work ready for fast finishers, alternatively assign a buddy for students who need help to finish.
**********************************************************************
EVIDENCE OF LEARNING
After the entire class has finished solving the scoot cards, you can display the pdf file on the interactive whiteboard and discuss answers. This way students can reflect on their responses while referring to the questions again.
