Links to great Maths Tools to support the teaching and learning of maths. Students can access these tools on both ipads and chromebooks. They are all interactive sites that engage students in their learning of maths. Students can also create to share their understanding and provide evidence of their learning.
Instead of letting students loose on a math games website, add some specific games to a google doc or a google slide which focus on what they need to learn and practice. Give the students clear expectations about playing the games as well. Eg: I want you to play the game until you have achieved at least 90%.
Check out this example of Place Value Games and this example of Multiplication Games. (Tautoro School)
With the new annotating tool in screencastify you can share your thinking as you solve maths problems. You can your record each step as you explain how to solve the problem.
