Sample of Monthly Math for Fun activity sets

These activity sets give kids a unique, fun, beyond-the-textbook way to engage with math concepts. Collect the whole set :)!

I’m so excited to finally share with you one of my big projects I’ve been working on to help your kids enjoy Math more than ever this coming year!

Facebook

I’ve pulled together the best elements from the past two challenges I’ve shared on Facebook (come join the fun here!) – and I’ve built on those ideas (using lots of great feedback!) to create a month-by-month set of daily “Math for Fun” activities. 

First unit: Geometry (for all ages!)

Today I’m ready to share with you the first unit on Geometry – with 24 activities differentiated for use by kids ages 5-13 (or older)!

This is the first of a year-long series of “Math for Fun” units. Each unit provides a month’s worth of daily Math activities designed to expose kids to fun, interactive, beyond-the-textbook Math concepts.

These interactive, hands-on, real world Math activities help students explore Geometry in a new and engaging way.

Through daily activity prompts (1-10 minutes each), students will learn to:

• understand vocabulary terms in context,
• construct geometric models,
• identify shapes and solids in their environment,
• explore details about properties of polygons,
• and much more!

These units are designed to be:

• Fun
  • To help break down barriers of math anxiety
  • To help students enjoy thinking mathematically
  • To expand students’ view of Math beyond skill and drill worksheets

• Fast
  • 1-10 minutes / day
  • 24 activities per unit

• Real-World
  • Math that relates to students’ interests
  • Math that can be seen in their environment (indoors, outdoors, in art, etc.)

• Hands-on
  • Students will interact with Math through hands-on activities, data collection, drawing, modeling, experiments, brief research, conversations, and more!

• Differentiated
  • Each activity has multiple levels so that students of all ages can participate in these units together.
