This set of classroom posters are a great way to get students thinking about the IB Learner Profiles. They include quotes and reflection questions to help your students develop an understanding of these profiles.

I have included four different sets to match the decor of your classroom. -Chevron with greens, pinks, and tan colors -Black and White (I used these last year!) which are wonderful to print on colored paper to make a BIG statement. -Geometric with Bright Colors (I'm using these this year!) -Watercolors *Check out my matching Attitudes of Excellence Posters and Journal, Learner Profiles Journal, and Key Concept Question Posters at my store! *I also do custom products* Message me at widenmo6684@gmail.com if you have a request.
Ordering Fractions from Least to Greatest Self Checking Puzzles

Ordering Fractions from Least to Greatest Self Checking Puzzles

(0)
These puzzles help students use a variety of strategies when comparing and ordering fractions. Sets with like denominators, like numerators, and a variety of denominator combinations to support the use of equivalent fractions and fraction/decimal conversion help students work flexibly to be successful with these tasks. Great for Stations or a Class Wide "Scoot" with Partners! These puzzles are easy to set up and self checking! To set them up just print (two sided), cut them out, and paperclip the sets together or sort into small baggies. Then students can organize them in order from least to greatest. If they think they are in the right order they flip them over and look for the message on the back. If the message makes sense, then they have them in the right order. If not, they should flip them over and try again. A student recording sheet and key is also included! :)

Problem Solving Task_The Bunny Problem_Area/Perimeter/Arrays

(0)
This file includes a problem solving task, slides that walk students through the problem solving process, as well as tips for teaching problem solving and possible questions for facilitating the task. It is provided as a pdf. as well as a ppt. This task focuses on area and perimeter as students try to maximize the area of a bunny pen for a predetermined perimeter. Students engage in true problem solving as they explore the possibilities for the bunny pen in this version of a classic mathematical task. This PowerPoint includes teacher facilitation questions, a guide to understanding the mathematics in the problem, a scaffolded approach to problem solving, and possible solutions. This is the method I use to help my students engage deeply in problem solving and stretch themselves beyond "number plugging" as many students do when they solve a "word problem". I have included a powerpoint version as well as a printable .pdf to fit the needs of your classroom.
