Second Grade Math Kit

Find the activities below that correspond with the materials found in our Second Grade Math Kit. Please select the material before selecting the grade to make sure your search results only provide activities for the mats in your Second Grade Math Kit.

Material

Decimal Time

Use the mat and its included cards along with notecards with a dot on them to make an equation that involves multiplying decimals. Make sure students understand where to put the decimal point in the final product.

Grade 5, Grade 6

Missing Factor

Set up the mat with a multiplication equation, leaving out one of the factors or one of the digits of the multi-digit factor. Put all of the partial products below and allow the students time to figure out what the missing number must be. For a challenge, leave out more than one number from the solution and equation.

Multi-Digit Multiplication

Use the mat to solve multi-digit multiplication problems. Have students set number cards on the mat to make the problem, then jump out each multiplication step while solving the equation.

Write It

After the students jump the mat and say which blends make real words or silly words, have them write down each real word they made.

Square Challenge

Once the students are familiar with the squares and roots, cover up some of the numbers, either the squares, the roots, or some of each, and have them hop down the mat and fill in the missing numbers by memory.

Make Your Own Chart

Give each student a 100 number grid. Together mark off all the multiples of each number until the only numbers left are the prime numbers. (Mark off 1 as well because it only has factor.) Compare the numbers that are left to those on the mat.

Area Model

Have students build each prime number on the mat out of unit cubes. Help them realize there is only one configuration that will work for these numbers. Then ask them to make an area model of the number 18 and see that there are several ways to make composite numbers.

Matching Game – Prime Numbers

Write out two sets of numbers including all of the primes from the mat and several composite numbers. Have two teams of students turn over the cards at the same time and try to be the first to choose out the prime numbers. Once they think they have found them they run and check themselves against the mat. If correct they win, if not they try again.

Target Number

Have one student stand on an integer on the mat. Have another student give them a target number and a third student pick the sign of the given number (+,-). The student on the mat then figures out how to get to the target number mentally or by jumping on the mat and then announces the number sentence made e.g (Standing on 4 and target number is -2) “4 minus 6 is -2”

Compare

Have two students each pick a number on the mat and stand on it. Have each state the comparison between their two number. e.g.Standing on -6 and -3. The one on -3 would say, “-3 is greater than -6.” and vice versa. Point out that it is the one that is closer to positive side that is greater if both are on negative numbers.
