RDP Room 2305

Come prepared to play games and learn strategies that help teach the following concepts: base ten composing/decomposing numbers, comparing numbers to millions and decimals, rounding and expanding numbers, number line activities. Games integrate the use of cards, regular dice and shakers, place value dice, number lines and even red solo cups! These activities are easy to differentiate and can help rebuild and develop deep understanding of place value concepts before paper and pencil practice. Activities can be used in whole class, small group instruction or in centers. GRADE 3 Teachers would benefit greatly from this session with the increased curriculum expectations for this grade. Handout will contain gameboards, concept skill checklists for assessment. This is a fast paced hands-on session.
