March Math Fun

 

In math today we had some March filled fun. We rotated around to three different learning stations and to the guided math table. 

At the guided math table we worked on finding a missing number in a pattern.  We first used gold coins to determine what the pattern was. Then, we found the missing number in the pattern. 

At our first station we played place value basketball.  We had to throw 9 different basket balls into the three basketball hoops. (Hundreds, Tens, and Ones hoop)  After all 9 balls were thrown we had to count up the balls in each basket and then write the number.  

At another station we played the game Garbage.  For this game we had to pick a card.  Then, strategically place that card on the place value mat to build the largest number.  Once you placed a card, you could not move it.

The last station was a game to help us practice missing numbers in a pattern.  When it was our turn we would draw a card and find the missing number in the pattern.  If we were correct, we got to roll the dice and move our piece on the board.  

We had LOTS of fun in math today!
