Math Activities Alongside Eggs!

Let's acquire crackin' (I hateful going)...

So many fun things to produce alongside eggs, only my all-time favorite is Fractions alongside egg cartons.

Fractions alongside egg cartons has been to a greater extent than or less for a while, only I'm non certain how many teachers together with parents know how many levels of fractions that tin live done alongside them.  You tin do identifying fractions, adding fractions, subtracting fractions, multiplying fractions, together with dividing fractions.  And spell doing those y'all tin speak almost fraction equivalents, mixed fractions, together with improper fractions.  Hopefully I didn't lose y'all there, only I volition live posting specific lessons afterwards on, only hither are a few examples of what to produce alongside EGGS together with egg cartons.

Egg Carton Fractions:  While y'all operate alongside eggs, y'all mightiness become alongside the plastic eggs instead.  Also, using a pic of the egg carton may live best when recording your findings.
  • Have fun seeing the dissimilar ways the eggs gibe inwards the carton.  What fraction is that?
  • You tin add together fractions...
    • And present how those fractions needed to become to the mutual denominator first...
  • Have fun exploring all the things y'all tin produce alongside fractions using egg cartons!
Adding together with subtracting: using plastic eggs...
  • Write numbers on your eggs together with position that many items within (jelly beans, blueberries, select anything that volition fit.) Have kids notice the eggs together with do adding upwardly their total.
  • For subtraction y'all tin write a work on the egg alongside a permanent mark (for example: 9-4=_ or 8-_=6) and
    1. have the kids position that many items within it.  OR...
    2. have baskets labeled 1, 2, 3, etc. representing the answers together with the kids convey to position the eggs inwards the basket.
Cooking alongside eggs: How many recipes convey eggs?  Look through a cookbook together with see...
  • Next fourth dimension y'all laid upwardly alongside eggs, position them inwards a mensuration loving cup for liquids--What's the majority within 1 egg, iii eggs, etc.
  • Make upwardly discussion problems to solve involving your family.  If everyone has a 2 egg omelet once a week, how many eggs would y'all convey used over i year?
Have y'all played math games alongside EGGS before?


Math Activities Amongst H2o Ice Cubes...

The alphabetic quality I was hard to come upwardly up alongside something, simply I mean value ice cubes tin hold upwardly fun to play with...

  • You tin detect out the book of a bunch of H2O ice cubes past times filling upwardly a measuring loving cup to a for sure measuring in addition to thence lay the cubes in.  The departure is the book of the H2O ice itself. (Water displacement)
  • See how many H2O ice cubes y'all tin stack i on operate past times of another.
  • Build an H2O ice cube pyramid.  How many H2O ice cubes did y'all use?  You could hold upwardly given a for sure amount in addition to brand whatever other type of structure.
  • Get a bunch of ice, lay it inward a measuring bowl or cup, guess how much H2O it volition hold upwardly when it melts.  Come dorsum the side past times side day... Was your guess correct?  Is at that spot a pool of H2O on the exterior of the drinking glass from condensation?
  • You tin utter nearly freezing temperatures for H2O vs. apple tree juice, soda, or something else.  Try making unlike types of frozen cubes.  Do they melt at the same speed every bit ice?  Try a side-by-side comparison.

What math things tin y'all produce alongside ICE CUBES?

Math Activities Alongside Popcorn!

A fun nutrient that has a lot of fiber--it's popcorn!
Yum!  I had to brand roughly as well as then I could become the picture... Before it was popped it looked similar this...
How many kids could pose a popcorn kernel?  Do they know how much only 1/4 of a loving cup of popcorn makes?

  • You could brand a popcorn necklace alongside dental floss (and using a needle).  See how long yous tin brand it--how many pieces of popcorn did yous use?
  • Do a comparing alongside popped corn pieces as well as popcorn kernels inwards ii measurement cups side past times side.
  • Practice uncomplicated sectionalization as well as multiplication (and their fact families) alongside popcorn kernels (this does cause got fine motor skills!)
    • In piffling bowls count out a certainly expose of kernels (take v for example).  If yous cause got 4 bowls as well as each person's bowl volition become v kernels, what is the total?
    • Take a handful of kernels as well as separate them betwixt bowls equally.  36 kernels shared 4 ways volition hold upward ____ kernals. 36  ÷ 4 = 9, 36 ÷ 9=4, 4 10 9=36, nine 10 4=36
For reading at that spot is a peachy kids book...The Popcorn Book
And only for fun yous tin sing Popcorn Popping

What tin yous practice alongside popcorn as well as math?

Math As Well As Blueberries

It's been a busy calendar week amongst household unit of measurement inward town for a household unit of measurement reunion, but I'm back.  Hopefully y'all enjoyed my end post reviewing a bully math mass for teachers.

Today I only wanted to set a question...
While I was feeding this to my miss this morn I was thinking that in that place are many ways to learn math only amongst a bowl of blueberries.  I wanted to involve heed closed to answers from you.  I volition post my ways amongst tomorrow's MaTh action Thursday.

So, how tin y'all learn math amongst a bowl of blueberries?

Math Activeness Thursday (M.A.Th.) -- Fun Novel Youtube Video Series! Everyday Experiences Plough Into Hands-On Math Activities!

Hello!

I'm as well as hence excited to introduce my kickoff Math action Th equally a weekly video series! Okay, end twelvemonth I tried to start simply I constitute that editing as well as doing it all was really fourth dimension consuming, as well as hence this fourth dimension I accept help. : )
