Morning Meeting and a Football Freebie



Hi everyone!  Hope you had a good day.  :)  

My class has been working on switching into "big" numbers when we are multiplying.  I made up 12 task cards to add to my morning math meeting.  They are free over on TPT.  

Side note - I love morning math meeting!  It's like "calendar" or "number of the day" when I taught primary.  It doesn't involve any copies to pass out - LOVE IT.  Anyhow, I use Tara's morning meeting pack as a daily review over key concepts, and I add other task cards of specific things that we are learning at that moment.  

The kids come in, get out their homework and put it on their desks, and then they head to the carpet with their whiteboards to solve the problems.  They get a head start going through the problems while I'm going desk to desk checking in homework.  I don't collect homework because we correct it together after morning meeting.  

During morning math meeting we go over the problems together, it's a mixture of the kids talking to each other to compare answers, and them doing the problems with me.    


I hope this freebie helps someone!
