Math+Use+Ideas





[|Math published on Glogster] - This is a great themed set of math problems, created and demonstrated in small groups. The videos were then uploaded into Glogster to create an online poster with art that matched the math theme.

This video is a great example of students embellishing what's on the paper slide, really telling the story, rather than just reading what's on the page or describing what they had drawn: media type="youtube" key="DrHIQIieHnE" height="349" width="560"

This appears to have been created by a teacher to review the concept of surface area. He/she uses post-it notes to mark the edges of the area that the camera is filming - a great way to help the kids keep everything on-screen! media type="youtube" key="3-qYKkGdLBE" height="349" width="425"

This video on equivalent fractions is part of a group on YouTube all posted by the same teacher. The class worked in groups to each illustrate the lyrics to a song about equivalent fractions, so each video has the same song with different illustrations! media type="youtube" key="7g8OACKwjag" height="349" width="560" media type="youtube" key="rdPC_TSZ1AE" height="349" width="560" media type="youtube" key="4hM5tXOP77s" height="349" width="560"

First graders using a mix of "traditional" paper slide format and coin manipulatives to count change: media type="youtube" key="IAcmtiqTYU0" height="349" width="425"

This class has a slightly different take on the paper slide format - their papers are all laid out on their work area, and they navigate the camera from paper to paper, rather than sliding the papers into one spot. This class has a whole series of math explanations on YouTube: media type="youtube" key="3wq22sNApFk" height="349" width="425"
