Fraction review games middle school

I also just do straight up task cards without the loop, and I get pretty creative with how I hide them. Sometimes if my kids have been really awesome I hide them in our hallway and it becomes an Out in the World scavenger hunt.

They love it! Another favorite is Secret Word Vocab Review. Kind of like task cards or a scavenger hunt with vocab terms, and for each problem, I give them a clue to circle a particular letter in their answer. At the end, they unscramble the special letters for a secret word. Last one… Quizlet Live. SO FUN. Good afternoon.

I know this is an old post but I was hoping you could clarify the scavenger hunt game for me. Am I correct in this interpretation of the game. You have different problems and answers posted around the room? And the students are to solve the problem and identify which answer goes to which problem? Thank you! Here is a link to a post with a better explanation. Hope that helps! These types of games can be fun for all subjects and we use them for a fun way to review before an assessment.

Heads Up as in the Ellen D. I write or type terms on index cards. Kids are usually already in groups of 4 so I have them pair up. One holds the card on their forehead so the partner can see the term. The partner has to describe or define the term so that the other can guess the answer. E-Mail Address.

Sorting pockets are activities where students put little cards into categories. Typically, this works an individual activity, but it could be done with partners. Math sorts work best with topics that have natural categories.

Sorts work great as an anticipatory set or something for fast finishers to do. I make a class set and then have students work with them over the course of a couple of weeks. These are great for review because students have to make judgments about numbers and equations.

They physically categorize the cards and can re-use the sort over and over to get more automatic with identifying key concepts. Matching games get students engaged and review at the same time. In some matching games students match 3 or 4 characteristics to one item. On the other hand, sometimes students are matching a question with an answer. Either way, this gives students the chance to use little manipulatives and to see the information presented in a different way. You can have students do this activity with a partner or by themselves.

If you have more than one matching game you can use them as centers and have students rotate from one matching set to another. Matching games are easy prep, hands-on practice and they get students solid practice. Many matching games are available with digital versions as well. Using drag-and-drop, students get fun math review.

With Quizizz you can have your students practice math skills on the computer every day. This online quiz program has a variety of topics, is easy to use, and even has funny memes that crack students up. You can use Quizizz questions that are already prepared by other teachers, or you can make your own quiz.

You can take the quiz too and see if they can beat you. My students LOVE competing against the teacher! We choose a skill and do a quiz every day for that topic for a few weeks to help us review. It also has a timer feature that can be turned on or off personally, I prefer to turn the timer off on most topics. Kids love this program.

XP Math has a lot of different games related to middle grades math. Students play the games like video games. Adding the video game aspect gets kids engaged in practicing many topics from Pre-Algebra, Algebra, and Geometry. The most important part is that students get up and moving around the room.
