VALENTINE'S DAY MATH SCOOT BUNDLE: ADDITION, SUBTRACTION, MULTIPLICATION
The four packs comprising of 128 Valentine's Day themed Scoot Cards is bundled to give you super savings.
********************************************
EACH PACK FEATURES:
→ 32 Valentine's Day-themed number operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) scoot cards
→ 2 styles of Recording Sheets to cater for differentiation
→ Answer Key
→ File Folder Covers (2-3 option)
********************************************
HOW I USED THE PACKS IN THIS BUNDLE:
♦ For each 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.
********************************************
SKILLS TARGETED:
✓ writing number facts using the four number operations
✓ using number operations to interpret arrays
✓ writing the missing addends in number facts.
✓ identifying mathematical terminology pertaining to number operations
✓ writing the sum, difference, product and quotient of given numbers
✓ writing number operation facts for given illustrations
✓ problem solving using illustrations
********************************************
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.
******************************************************************************
* Prior to using these 128 Scoot cards, it would be best to familiarise students with the type of questions as well as mathematical terminology used. Wish you a successful academic year!

Game of Scoot:
There are many variations to the game. Here’s one:Lay cards around the classroom. When the teacher calls ‘scoot’ students pick up a card and write their response on the provided Recording Sheet. Students can only move when ‘scoot’ is called out. If the student does not finish solving the problem on a card, he/she can continue to spend more time on it, but must wait till the teacher calls out ‘scoot’. You can also have this as a silent activity where students move around quietly solving all the task cards without the teacher calling out ‘scoot’.
At the culmination of the activity, project the cards on the interactive whiteboard and discuss the answers with the class. Alternatively, place answer sheets at a Centre for students to self-check.
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.
