Fun Action To Railroad Train Procedural Fluency


I am a potent advocate inward educational activity students conceptual mathematics.  I believe the to a greater extent than they empathize the "why" of the mathematics as well as tin brand connections across domains they volition larn meliorate mathematicians as well as meliorate employment solvers.  However, I too believe procedural fluency is a critical part inward mathematics.  One agency to develop procedural fluency is practice. 

I know, however, that middle schoolhouse students do non similar a ho-hum worksheet to practise procedures, as well as assigning 10 basic problems out of a textbook is merely every bit boring.  Students are to a greater extent than willing to engage inward an assignment when it is fun.  That is why I created mystery pictures.  

Mystery pictures include most twenty questions for students to practise procedural fluency on a specific math topic.  Once they respond they inquiry they respect the respond on the coloring grid as well as color the square(s) according to the primal inward the question.  Once complete, students volition accept revealed a fun mystery picture.  If done incorrectly, their moving painting volition non await correct.  Therefore, correcting these mystery pictures is a breeze.  

I accept a few available to download for costless if y'all would similar to displace them out inward your middle schoolhouse math classroom.  Click hither to select deal of yours for FREE!

I accept others available inward my Teachers pay Teachers shop if y'all would similar to a greater extent than for your classroom.  You tin cheque those out HERE
