This is a daily warm-up for students to review old
skills and introduce new skills. Each student works with the same partner for a
month. The students complete their assigned activity and report the information
to the class. The teams rotate activities weekly. Nemeth notation is also
exercised within all the activities.
Daily Pattern/data – students determine the factors of the
date and categorize by number of factors with the color of the card. (skills:
mathematical patterns, factorization, multiplication skills, data collection)
Daily Measurement – using the protractor students take the
measurement of an angle, label the angle in degrees and type (right, obtuse, or
acute). (skills: using math tools, geometry)
Daily Deposit/variable – students use the following formula
to determine the daily deposit.
d = daily deposit, t = total deposit from the previous day equation: 0.10t = d
(skills: number sense, money, base 10, percents, and algebra)
Daily Array – Students use the date to configure as many
rectangle/squares that can be made. Then they determine the area and perimeter
of each picture. (skills: factorization, geometry)
