What is a thinkboard? It is a graphic organiser or tool to assist students to make connections across/ within and between different representations of knowledge. The more connections that are made: •the better the understanding of the mathematics •the more likely it will be that the mathematical knowledge is retained •and easier it should be to apply the mathematics The focus of the think board is on finding the connections between the different ways of representing a problem. How to use them •Arrange students into groups of four, placed around the Think Board’s four sections. Provide the students with one of the sections as a starting point and give them time to discuss the idea with their neighbours before deciding on what to record. •You can also work on a Think Board as a whole class or individually. Assessment •Think Boards promote discussion – look for mathematical language used. •Assess individual student’s understanding of a mathematical idea – look at all sections of the •Think Board individually to find strengths and weaknesses This resource contains both PPT and PDF versions in a ZIP file so please ensure that you have the software to open them You will recieve a set of 5 different Thinkboards for each number and an editable version so that you can create your own.

Set of colored and black and white game boards for your classroom kit. Each board game incorporates a spinner which can be used with a paper clip and a thumb tack with numbers 1-6 (If you don’t have dice handy) This has been incredibly popular with my younger students, who have created some fun games using these blank boards. I have used them with mini rubbers as playing pieces and the game rules that even the younger students came up with, were really amazing. I have extended this activity by using it as a literacy task where students have been asked to write a procedural text ie. how to play the game. What you need? How many players? How do you start? What are the rules? How is the winner determined? An affordable and versatile resource for any classroom.

A Social Narrative is an effective way to teach children how to navigate a new situation, such as starting school or preschool. Social Narratives can help children understand what to expect at school or preschool and they can be used to support orientation, which is particularly useful when children and families are not able to be on-site.  Teaching children how to ask a question only once is a common social skill that needs to be frequently addressed. As educators we always will say things like, “wait’ or “You asked that just a moment ago.”, however we need to explicitly teach these skills. This story can be used to help children to develop skills so that they can learn to function and integrate with other children in the classroom and other social settings.

Are you looking for a fun and interesting way to engage your students Learning and mastering addition facts with sums to 2 can be challenging for students, but not with this fun and interactive powerpoint. This Powerpoint product includes 4 slides that your students can practice their addition fluency to 2. The first 2 slides use drag and drop characters where students can practice the strategy of counting on. For early learners, still at the counting from one stage, this strategy can be used but encouragement to count on can be developed using this resource. The second set of 2 slides encourages counting on from the largest number given, to determine the answer which can be written in an editable box. If the presentation is run from this point in presentation mode, students can click on the slide to check their answers after filling in the answer boxes. I encourage you to make a copy of this presentation or to NOT SAVE changes, when you finish, otherwise your working out will remain on the slides. It can be used for whole group instruction or independent work. You can assign a few slides per day for your students to practice. Simply make a copy of this product and choose the slides that you want to assign. This is for use by one teacher in one classroom.

Math Logic Puzzles and Brain teasers are a great way to start a lesson or use as a brain break. Have them on Interactive Whiteboard displayed as a classroom entry activity. Lateral thinking is a form of problem-solving that utilizes a more creative, less direct approach to the problem. Analytical, logical problem-solving encourages vertical thinking, which is an approach we’re often taught when dealing with math equations. Suggested ideas for use in the classroom Give the students 5 minutes to solve the riddle or puzzles before revealing the answers. Great discussion starters as many of these may have more than one answer or explanation. These can also be used for fast finishers as problem solving tasks. Students really enjoy the Optical illusions which are included in this pack. Included is a zip file with both PDF and powerpoint versions, which can be easily saved on any storage device. A great addition to any Relief or Substitute teacher’s bag of tricks. Suitable for upper primary to lower secondary students. (Answers included)
