What's Happening

We did a new kind of "warm-up" for Math today. This came from the book Codebreakers. We started off with some easy puzzles and will work our way to the harder ones.  

When the students finish their work in my classroom, they often times have Picture Equation Challenges to figure out. This is similar to the Codebreakers that we did for our warm-up today. These can be somewhat challenging and many of the students want to give up without much effort. An important life skill is perseverance and this is a great way to practice that skill! Here is today's Picture Equation Challenge:

 I introduced the fourth graders to some of the math games that I have in my classroom. They were excited to try them out! They are a great way for them to get extra practice in basic math facts and other important math skills.
