QR codes make task cards more engaging by integrating technology into your lesson! This QR code resource is perfect for work at a math center.

The first six cards are easier, the last six cards are more challenging. (Click the preview above for more details.) For example, the addition cards numbered 1 – 6 involve adding a series of one and two digit numbers. The addition cards numbered 7 – 12 involve adding three and four digit numbers. You can remove cards to differentiate based on your students’ abilities. A recording sheet is included. Students have room to show their work for each word problem and record their final answer. Then they scan the QR code to see if they are correct. You will need a QR code reader to make the most of this resource. There are many FREE apps available for Apple and Android devices. You do NOT need Internet access to get the answers. The answers are embedded in the codes and will be displayed by your QR code reading device. An answer sheet has also been included. So, if you do not have access to QR code reading devices, the kids can still use the task cards and refer to the answer sheet. Enjoy! ~ SunnyDaze on TPT

Project Based Learning: Area & Perimeter {Design a School Carnival}

(0)
Area and perimeter project based learning! Students have fun demonstrating their math knowledge of area and perimeter while designing a school carnival. This project based learning resource is themed around students planning the design of an outdoor school carnival. Their school principal is requesting that they use their knowledge of area and perimeter to plan the carnival. The principal provides guidelines (worksheets) listing the requirements for the games, entertainment and additional carnival areas. The main portion of the project requires them to use their knowledge of area and perimeter to make their carnival blueprints. (They are calculating area and perimeter measured in feet.) Differentiated Learning Options. (Two versions of area & perimeter calculation sheets) • Basic Project: These pages have the length and width filled in on the charts. Students calculate area & perimeter. Best for beginning learners. • Advanced Project: These pages do not have the length and width filled in on the charts. Students calculate length, width, area & perimeter. This is the more challenging version so it is most appropriate for learners with a solid grasp on basic spatial and measurement concepts in geometry. Contents include examples, instructions for students, cover page, graph paper, worksheets for games, entertainment and other carnival areas, as well as worksheets for optional ELA extension activities. The extension worksheets included are for writing instructional directions, writing a persuasive school announcement and creating a tri-fold brochure. Enjoy! ~ SunnyDaze on TPT
3D Biomes Project

3D Biomes Project

(1)
This project is a great addition to your habitats or ecosystems unit. It can be used as a supplemental learning resource or as an alternative assessment. It includes 8 vibrantly colored biome posters in addition to the cube biome pages. Detailed step-by-step assembly instructions are also provided. This resource includes eight different biomes. When assembled, each 3-D biome cube contains four biomes. It is at the teacher’s discretion to make this an individual or group project, and whether students pick the biomes they want to work on or if they are assigned. The biome pictures contain enough details to show students the main features of each, while leaving room to draw in additional plants and animals to demonstrate an understanding of each biome. On the front of each cube side, students write a description of the biome as well as listing plants and animals found there and the locations where the biome exists. And, these finished resources will look great when displayed in your classroom! The following biomes are included: ★ Rainforest Biome ★ Grassland Biome ★ Marine Biome ★ Desert Biome ★ Freshwater Biome ★ Tundra Biome ★ Deciduous Forest Biome ★ Taiga Biome (Boreal Forest) Four biomes go on each “cube.” They actually form triangular prisms, but I’m counting the air inside each where kids can add pop-up animals, modeling clay, etc. so I call them cubes. :) Enjoy! ~ SunnyDaze on TPT
