Blank Number Line
As I was teaching rounding, I wanted a blank number line that my kids could use for both rounding to the hundreds place and the tens. I had a difficult time finding a blank one, so I decided to create one.
I print these out on card stock and laminate them so that the kids can use them with their dry erase markers. For example, if they are rounding 156 to the hundreds place, they would put 100 on one end and 200 on the other. They would then write 110, 120, 130... on the number line. If they ar

Test Taking Strategies / Follow Directions Prank/Fake Quiz
This quiz is a fun and funny way to get students to realize they need to pay attention to directions.
There is a list of numerous steps to complete, which can actually be fun for students. HOWEVER, the first step says to "read all directions before continuing" and the last step says "only do..." so most students mess this up and do all the steps as they go along. Then you can give them the lesson at the end :)

Students track their bank balance throughout and on a daily log. It gives students a realistic insight into managing family resources and they enjoy the game and competition aspect of the activity.
