Life Cycle Math Task Cards and PowerPoint

This set of math and science task cards is the perfect combination for your grade 3 and grade 4 learners. Two subjects combined into one engaging activity that can be used in multiple ways. Display task cards around the classroom (or outdoors) for learners to find and solve. If you need a small or large group work activity, this fits the bill also. Since each task card presents questions in a word problem format, a PowerPoint has also been included. Each slide corresponds with a task card, allowing you to display each full size card on the board. Word problems can be tricky for learners to work through individually. With the PowerPoint, you can use each task card as a guided lesson, walking your learners through each step as they gain the confidence to eventually solve them on their own. Or, use the PowerPoint and turn the task cards into a daily math warm-up, either for one week or one month. The possibilities are endless! With this product, mathematics and science standards are presented. Some skills your learners will practice include: multiplication, division, elapsed time, fractions, rounding, measurement, addition, and subtraction. Life cycle topics include mammals, birds, fish, and reptiles. Two sets of task cards are available in this product. One is a color version, the other is a black & white version. PLEASE NOTE: both versions are IDENTICAL. An answer recording page and answer key are also provided. The PowerPoint is COLOR only.
