Do you need a last minute easy prep activity for your students for a special event day like Mothers’, Fathers’ days or Christmas.? These gift vouchers have special relevance for those receiving them as they really come from the heart .
Before embarking on the project encourage the children to visualise the person who will be receiving the gift voucher.
What do they really love?
What do they always ask you to do for them? (It would be nice to do something without being asked)
What are you able to do to help them
How do you think they are going to feel when they receive these wonderful treats?
It is so very important to make sure that the students understand their role in this activity. They must be prepared to follow through with their promise…no questions asked. Don’t put in vouchers for things that you are unable to do (eg mowing the lawn)

•NO HAND GESTURES OR MIMING ALLOWED

What is a thinkboard?
It is a graphic organiser or tool to assist students to make connections across/ within and between different representations of knowledge. The more connections that are made:
•the better the understanding of the mathematics

The focus of the think board is on finding
the connections between the different
ways of representing a problem.
How to use them
•Arrange students into groups of four, placed around the Think Board’s four sections. Provide the students with one of the sections as a starting point and give them time to discuss the idea with their neighbours before deciding on what to record.
•You can also work on a Think Board as a whole class or individually.
Assessment
•Think Boards promote discussion – look for mathematical language used.
•Assess individual student’s understanding of a mathematical idea – look at all sections of the
