I like an active classroom where everyone is busy. If you stop in one day it will look like chaos, but it is a carefully orchestrated chaos that cleverly disguises all the learning that we are doing. I use a lot of activities -- and keep the kids moving. Research says that if anyone sits for more than 15 minutes, their brain disengages and learning is not happening. So I design a lot of activities to get kids moving, talking, thinking and participating.

Isosceles Triangles Matching Card Set

(0)
Students will calculate measures of angles in Isosceles Triangles from the graphs in these 24 pairs of matching cards. Half the cards have the triangle and the other have have the measure. Students work individually, in pairs or small groups to match the cards. Students need practice analyzing pictures and drawings of geometric figures and this will help them get that practice without the dreaded worksheet. Great collaborative activity to encourage students to work together and talk about math. Just print the cards and either cut yourself or have students cut. You can laminate for repeated use. Do you have students who finish everything quickly while others are just getting started? Give them all the matching card set while removing some of the pairs for students who struggle. Included: ☀24 pairs of matching cards ☀Directions and tips for using ☀Answer Keys
