Topic 8 DQ 1
Anactivity that I recently used in my classroom was Skittles math. I did thisactivity with my 7th and 8th grade resource math classes. For my7th graders, we used Skittles math with percents, and with my8th grade class we used it with Ratios. I found the worksheets on TeachersPay Teachers and with a Google search, you can find many for free for all gradelevels. This was a Fun Friday activity that was light and fun, but stillreviewed math skills we have learned. The one obstacle for using candy with amath activity is keeping the kids from eating them until after they havegathered their data. The way I overcame this was by not allowing them to openthe bags until I had modeled the lesson and we were ready to begin. I alsoemphasized that they would be able to eat the candy as soon as they gatheredthe pertinent data for their worksheet, so they knew they would be able toenjoy them soon. Another tip for implementing a math activity using candy is tohave Ziploc baggies for the students to put the candy in after they rip thebags open. According to Virginia, making math fun requires 3 things, Purpose,motivation, and rewards and these lessons had just that. (2020).
