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

Bean Bag Toss

Have students take turns tossing a bean bag onto the mat. Then, have them hopscotch down to where it landed. When they reach the number it landed on, either call out that number squared (if it is a double number) or it’s square root (if single space). For example, if the bean bag lands on 36, the student would say, “The square root of 36 is 6.” If it lands on an 8, the student would say, “Eight squared is 64.”

Square Root Hopscotch

To reinforce teaching about square roots, have students hopscotch the mat starting from the top (10×10) and ending at the start (1x). As they hop, have them call out the square root of each number. For example, the square root of 64 is 8. The square root of 49 is 7, etc.

Squares

This mat is useful to reinforce teaching about square numbers. Once students know that a number multiplied by itself makes a square, have them hopscotch down the mat using that vocabulary. For example, 5 squared is 25. 6 squared is 36.

Multiplication Hopscotch

Have students hop both feet onto 1 and 1. Then, have them hop one foot on the product, 1. Continue with this pattern (two and two, and then the product, four, and so on). As they hopscotch down the mat, encourage them to shout out the multiplication sentence they are on. For example, 1 times 1 is 1! 2 times 2 is 4!

Mad Word Hatter

Create word cards that match words on the mat. Place cards in a large hat or a box. The student draws a word and then hops on the mat to the word.
