This math tool is a fantastic way for students to practice their three-digit addition skills. With just the click of a button, two random three-digit numbers are generated, providing students with a new set of problems each time they use it. The tool is smartboard friendly, with large buttons that make it easy to use for students of all ages. With regular practice, students will become more confident in their addition abilities, improving their math skills overall.

When my 3rd-grade students are learning to read measurements to the quarter inch, I use this game.  Most kids get really into it.  As students get the measurement correct, the timer goes faster and faster.  You can change the settings to display rulers that measure just the inch, half inch, quarter inch, sixteenth inch, thirty-two seconds of an inch, and even sixty-four seconds of an inch.

This video is a simple demonstration of the different types of matter: gas, liquid, and solid. This video also has worksheets and activities that go with it.

In this science lab, students will gain a pretty good understanding of what mass, volume, and density are. They will digitally change the volume of objects, weigh different object masses, and calculate the densities of each object. Students will use the computer and the Phet Simulation software to complete this lab.

This science lab can be used in any of the science disciplines because it is going to help students learn how to read a meter tape. Students will learn what the Magnus Effect is and how to demonstrate the Magnus Effect by "flying" a hollowed-out "Bic" pen across the classroom. Students will also learn how to create a spreadsheet and then add a formula that will automatically calculate the average of their pen flight distances. I use this lab at the beginning of the year to get students excited about science as well.

In this Study Jam video, students will have a chance to learn about the concepts of air mass and weather front, as well as the differences between cold and warm fronts. The video will also cover some important cloud vocabulary related to weather.

Based on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" this game shows a reading passage with an option on what the main idea or supporting detail is.  See if your students can win a million bucks

In this activity, students will first begin by exploring the area and perimeter.  Tell your students to make a shape that has a specific area or perimeter and then give them time to explore and create.  As you go, make the math challenges more difficult.  When they have had a chance to explore, have them play the game.  The challenge is to see how many levels they can complete.  Keep in mind that the last level is unique in that students now have to create a shape with a specific area while creating a fraction of the shaded color like the second image below.

This website gives teachers the ability to quickly create random numbers that can be used for adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, order of operations, finding rules, and learning to substitute values.  The spinners can be used with 2 to 12 sections in each spinner.  You can have up to 4 spinners.  It also contains a timer in which you can quickly turn the spinners into fun and visual activities.  Watch the YouTube Video on using the spinners to see how it can be used.
