@MrsBigelowEast @LCISDeast So happy that you were able to make it work for you! ❤️

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

@MrsBigelowEast I actually used Keynote because I love how easy it is for my students to add audio, pictures, or even write on the slides. However this would be awesome as a @Seesaw activity too! Here’s a link if you want to change it and make it work for you! https://t.co/464PLuxQvS

We’re spicing up all of the word problems as we get ready for our upcoming state test! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily @lcp_it #pirateinnovation

We tried out a new review game this week...Life-Sized board game for the win! Foam play mat + Cones + dice + review questions = SO MUCH FUN! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Today we played a few rounds of “Geometry Tic-Tac-Toe” to review vocabulary. Ss had to write down something they know about the different vocabulary terms before playing their piece. Games = Instant engagement! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Hey, math teachers...give the kids the answers. No, seriously. Do it! Your students can handle it. At the end of the day, it’s about the process, not the answer. @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily @lcp_it #pirateinnovation @AppleEDU

@jessica_goree @AppleEDU I am definitely going to use this with my 5th graders (with a few tweaks). Thanks for sharing!!

@newcomer_mr @LCISDeast @lubbockcooper @lcp_it @SlidesManiaSM Try this! https://t.co/FEBCEJLZEx

Things got pretty gross today in 5th grade! We had so much fun converting measurements to help us make some pretty tough decisions. @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily @lcp_it #pirateinnovation @SlidesManiaSM

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

@newcomer_mr @LCISDeast @lubbockcooper @lcp_it @SlidesManiaSM Sure thing! Here’s the link. It’s a keynote file. My district is one-to-one with iPads so that’s what we use. If you need a pdf instead I can send that your way. https://t.co/o88erK4O7B

Celebrating #DLDay by completing an #AmongUs themed choose your own adventure! Thanks to @mathchick5 and @marvelmath for helping us practice multiplying and dividing with fractions! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily @lcp_it #pirateinnovation @OfficialDLDay

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Last week was all about representing multiplication of a fraction by a whole number. After we modeled some problems using pattern blocks, we played this great partner game from @MathCoachCorner to really solidify our learning. @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

This week we reviewed financial literacy terms with a snowball fight! I printed words on half of the pages and definitions on the other half. After, Ss raced the clock to find matches. Simple, active, and fun! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Last week in 5th we practiced graphing on a coordinate plane by coding our Dash robots to travel to different coordinates on our learning carpet. Fun and learning was had by all! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily @lcp_it #pirateinnovation @WonderWorkshop

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Today we kicked off our Coordinate Plane unit by reading “The Fly on the Ceiling”, a math myth about the creation of the Cartesian System by Rene Descartes. Then we plotted ordered pairs from the story on our Learning Carpet. So much fun! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Another day, another @numbertalks This is truly my favorite time in our math block, and I know my students would agree. We are becoming stronger mathematicians as we learn from one another every day! @LCISDeast #EEpirates #numbertalks #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

We’ve got a great group of goal getters in 5th grade! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Today we reviewed decimal concepts after a long three day weekend. Sometimes you just need to throw on some music and get kids moving and talking to one another! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper #piratefamily #pirateinnovation

[Katelyn Conover @KatelynConover]

Mystery pictures are a hit with my 5th graders! I love using @googlesheets with conditional formatting for skill practice because students receive immediate feedback and can analyze their errors. Plus, #BabyYoda! @LCISDeast #EEpirates @lubbockcooper @lcp_it #pirateinnovation
