How to practice multiplying in 5th grade?
Sometimes you just need to quick assignment for sub plans, homework, extra practice, etc.This no-prep activity is a way for students to practice multiplying whole numbers.
Planning for a teacher absence is quite possibly the worst. So much planning goes into making sure the kids are engaged in activity and a substitute, who may or may not have any teaching experience, is able to get through the day. When the absence is unexpected, it is nice to have some go to activities to print and copy for an easy substitute plan.
One thing my students grumbled about the least was math coloring pages. They still had to practice some math, but they got a color at the same time.
I wish I had had a coloring page for every math topic last year for the days when teachers had unexpected absences and they were out. I created a coloring page for each set of topics in fifth grade math.
