Daily Math Warm-Ups Digital Classroom Number Talks & Story Problems 136-180

Super charge your math block with these daily number talk story problems!

Daily Math Warm-Ups are ready to download Google Slides that you can start to use TODAY to engage your students in critical math thinking skills. Each day’s activity was created to promote number sense and strategy development to encourage even reluctant participants to join in the fun of discovery!

The benefits of daily math word problems are well researched. With this in mind I created these presentations on Google Slides so that they are easy to pull up and present to the class to do together. There are 45 activities for each quarter of the school year. Look for the Bundle to save money and get 180 activities in all! Each day has a number routine or word problem that will challenge your second graders with helpful vocabulary, simple text and few distractions.

The activities are designed to prompt class discussion. Peer learning is a best practice and retention skyrockets when students have opportunities to learn from each other. Ask them often to explain HOW they got their answer and you will be amazed at the thinking they share with you!

FIVE ENGAGING ROUTINES:

COUNTING ROUTINE: To help build fluency and number sense, these counting routines will have you and your class engaging your noggins in counting by ones, tens, fives, nickels, dimes, minutes, forwards, backwards and so much more!
TIME STORY PROBLEM: These story problems use the analog clock to grow in understanding the passage of time with hour, half-hour, quarter hour and minutes. A link to an interactive analog clock can help with these problems.
NUMBERLESS STORY PROBLEM: These problems start with no numbers! The challenge is to understand what is happening in the story and not just pick out the numbers and try to figure out what to do with them. Each slide slowly reveals a little bit more of the math needed to complete the problem.
MONEY STORY PROBLEM: These story problems use pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and dollars to help strengthen the counting of money. A link to interactive coins can help with these problems.
GRAPHING SLOW REVEAL PROBLEM: This instructional routine promotes sensemaking about data. The first slide only reveals a portion of the graph and students engage in what they think might be represented. Each slide then slowly reveals a little bit more of the information needed to understand the data.
