Students practice finding the area of circles in these 4 puzzles given either circumference, diameter or radius. In two of the puzzles pi is left in the answer and the other two has an answer using pi= 3.14. Puzzles have 2 levels for differentiation in the classroom and answer keys are included for all. In the simpler level, the outside edges are blank, so if students are having difficulty, have them arrange the pieces so the blank sides are on the outside. In the more challenging level, the edges have additional problems/answers in the border to make solving a little more difficult. Set includes 4 different puzzles with 2 different levels of difficulty for students to practice finding the area of circles. You can use the puzzles on different days, at stations or give the struggling students the simpler variation.

Students practice adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions in these 4 puzzles. Each puzzle highlights one of the operations. Puzzles are all a basic level, where the outside edges are bland. Each 16 piece puzzle is coded with a letter to easily check the solution on the included answer keys. The puzzles create a 4 x 4 square which finishes at 9 inches. You can use the puzzles on different days, at stations or even give cut pieces to students to put together at home. Since the puzzles finish at a slightly larger square they will just fit construction paper and need to taped/glued together once the teacher has checked the solution. I find tape easier for students. Makes a wonderful display on your bulletin board.

Students practice factoring quadratics and/or multiplying binomials in all 4 puzzles in this set. 2 of the puzzles have the leading coefficient at 1 and the other two puzzles have a leading coefficient greater than 1. There are 2 different levels of puzzles with answer keys included for all. In the simpler level, the outside edges are blank, so if students are having difficulty, have them arrange the pieces so the blank sides are on the outside. In the more challenging level, the edges have additional problems/answers in the border to make solving a little more difficult. You can use the puzzles on different days, at stations or give the struggling students the simpler variation while more advanced students get a challenge with level 2 puzzles.

Students practice multiplying decimals in two of these puzzles and dividing decimals in the other two puzzles. Set includes 4 different puzzles with 2 different levels of difficulty for students to practice multiplying and dividing decimals. Answer Keys are included for all. In the simpler level, the outside edges are blank, so if students are having difficulty, have them arrange the pieces so the blank sides are on the outside. In the more challenging level, the edges have additional problems/answers in the border to make solving a little more difficult. Puzzles finish at about 9 inches square and can be taped/glued to card stock or poster paper and make a lovely bulletin board display. You can use the puzzles on different days, at stations or give the struggling students the simpler variation while more advanced students get level 2 puzzles.

I always use a lot of games and activities in the class. Sets of Matching Cards are very versatile because there are so many ways of using the different types of cards. They can be used for a whole class activity or a group/partner activity and a quick assessment for an individual student. Using cards as an assessment is a quick way to tell me if I need to reteach or review certain concepts or the class is good to go. I am always finding new ways to use them and the kids enjoy the variety.
