Math Enrichment & Project Based Learning Operations & Algebraic Thinking BUNDLE

These CCSS Operations & Algebraic Thinking project-based activities are a way to enrich your high-achieving students through independent work study, while you are able to focus on providing instruction and support to your on level and approaching level students. These high-level thinking projects incorporate reading and writing, and allow all students to stay actively working on the same standards as the instruction you are giving to the students who are still working on learning addition, subtraction, and five and ten relationships.

NEWLY UPDATED WITH STUDENT PAGES, RUBRICS AND AN EASY-TO-READ FORMAT!!

CCSS

Although these 48 activities were created based on the first grade Common Core State Standards, they can be used by any students or teachers who teach skills related to addition, subtraction, and five and ten relationships.

While the first six activities of each unit are based on the first grade CCSS, the last two activities are based on the second grade CCSS for your students who are really ready for a challenge. These activities may be completed in one academic period (by your quick thinking, fast working students), but were written with the goal of truly being a project-based learning experience, that may take several days to complete.

Each of the steps to complete the tasks are separated on the page to make it easier to read and understand, and easier for students to track which steps they have completed.

Higher-Level Thinking

They are written using Bloom’s Taxonomy vocabulary that are bold and underlined on each page. Each activity is open-ended without any specific directions on HOW to complete the activity to meet those higher-level, critical thinking skills.

Click the link below for some Bloom's Taxonomy Verb Posters to help your students understand the Bloom’s higher-level thinking verbs that are included in this resource. It includes definitions and pictures for all 65 verbs.

Student Pages

This resource can be used with your students for enrichment and/or project-based learning. The intention is to simply provide your students with the activity cards, and let them use their creative out-of-the-box thinking to create. Knowing that some students may need some sort of a guide to get started, I have also included some student pages for them to use.

Rubrics

Included in this resource are two sets of rubrics: one set for the teacher and one set for the students. Each set comes in four formats:

• Checklist with student application of knowledge already filled in
• Blank checklist to add your own
• Scaled rubric with student application of knowledge already filled in
• Blank scaled rubric to add your 434

Implementation Guide

This resource comes with an implementation guide. It includes:

♦ How to get started

♦ How to assess who is ready for enrichment

♦ Management Strategies

♦ Encouraging Enrichment for ALL

It's Digital Too!

Need a way to enrich your high achievers during distance learning? After purchasing this resource, there are two ways to access this resource in Google Slides:

1- Click on the link(s) in this resource on the Google Slides pages. This option will prompt you to make a copy of the Slides that I have already added text boxes to, so that your students can get started right away. You will still have the opportunity to add or change anything you'd like, and make multiple copies of the student pages.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I am using this with some of my higher level kids who have finished their other math menus. I'm loving giving them things to do that have additional components to it and gets them using their creativity also! - Katie M.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My kids enjoyed using this as an early finisher. I put these cards and the necessary supplies in a bin so they could have a free choice on the early finisher. - Roo's Room
