20 Algebraic Expressions Task Cards With QR Codes- Write the Expression

(0)
This version contains 20 task cards designed for advanced 5th graders and grade level 6th - 7th graders. Each card contains a scenario in which the students read and write the correct numerical expression that accompanies the scenario or word phrase. Designed for 6th grade but is awesome in other grades as a lead in to algebraic equations. Each task card comes with a QR code that students can scan on iPads, phones or computers. The QR code immediately pulls up the answer that the students can use to check their work. In my class, I print these off and use them in small group. While I’m working with a group of students on a particular skills, I have a couple other small groups working on task cards in which they are writing out the answers and using an iPad to scan the QR code. My colleague across the hall uses her Chromebooks to scan the codes. These cards allow the groups to be self sufficient in making sure that they are practicing correctly.

Digital Sort- Polygons and Non-Polygons - Perfect for Years 3-6

(0)
This resource comes with 1 digital sort in which students can sort different shapes into polygons or non polygons. See screenshot on front page. Super easy to use. I have also included two videos with step by step directions that will assist you in using this sort with your classroom if needed. This sort is 100% digital so it saves lots of paper and time cutting out the cards and can be used in lots of different ways. These sorts are great for classrooms that don’t have a lot of time to spend cutting pictures but still would like to sort and classify things based on similarities and differences. (One of Marzano’s High Yield Strategies) If you would like to see an example of this sort- please check out my Living vs Nonliving Free Picture Sort. This sort is very similar but has students sorting objects into living vs nonliving objects instead of polygons. Thank you so much for looking.
