I have recently come upon these math websites...
I think they can be used in a variety of ways in our classrooms. There are prepared resources on these sites, but they might also inspire you to create your own. It might also be a good opportunity for students to create them.
Would You Rather? This site gives two mathematical questions and students have to determine which they believe will give them the better result.
Estimation 180 This site offers opportunities for students to estimate with the hope that practicing estimation more often will build their number sense.
Fraction Talks Images from this site support the teaching of fractions. Ideas for using these images are limitless, but as a number talk might be a great way to start.
Visual Patterns The images on this site are the beginning of a pattern. Can your students figure out how the pattern works? Can they write an equation to match it?
All of these sites offer opportunities to expand their thinking and especially their thinking about math. Many of them are low floor/high ceiling tasks meaning that all of your students can be successful with them. Consider using them with all students!
I would be happy to help you find ways that these activities could work for you and your students. Just let me know how I can help!
