Multiplication

Padlet

Before we begin learning about multiplication, we created a new board and posted all of the things we already knew about the concept. We also went ahead and recorded what questions we have or what we would like to learn about multiplication.

After we have learned about multiplication, we will revisit Padlet and look at our board and see if our questions were answered. We will also create a new board to post about all of the different things we learned.

Geometry

Similar to the Magnetic assessment, students used the iPads to show what they knew about 2D and 3D shapes. Students used the following pages that had different shapes, corresponding clues and QR codes. Students were required to use their knowledge of shapes in order to solve the riddles. They wrote their answers on their recording sheet prior to scanning the codes. 

Problem Solving

Rather than only using pencil and paper, we have been incorporating our iTouches into our daily problem solving.

The kids solve the read and solve the problems with whichever manipulatives they need, and then they check their work with the iTouch. The kids have really enjoyed getting to use the iTouches on a daily basis.

If a student's answer is incorrect, they then go back and work through it again to find their mistake.
