Description
Whether you call them “open ended math challenges” or “real world problem solving tasks” or “rich math tasks”, finding engaging math problems that apply multiple standards are not easy to find. In fact, if you are looking for challenging math problems and tasks that keep your students engaged, apply the math you have taught, and meet your math standards–I can help you out!
My guess is that you are looking for a low-prep, ready-to-print (or send digitally) math project that has just the right amount of challenge and is engaging for your students while being tied to your curriculum standards. Check out these low-floor, high-ceiling tasks!
This low prep, low ink AND flexible math bundle is a math problem solving resource that can be used with small enrichment groups or can be tiered so you can use it with your entire class–even at different levels.
If you want your students problem solving, thinking creatively, writing and talking about math, and working collaboratively–you need this. If you want them working on math in “real world” contexts–you need this? Would you like all of this with included DIGITAL OPTIONS as well?
This may be just what you are looking for!
What do you get?
This bundle contains ALL SEVEN of my “Thinker Task” project based learning math resources. Each of these open-ended resources is geared toward helping your students become better problem solvers, math thinkers, collaborators, and more!
Each problem-solving task in this resource is a FULL copy of each “Thinker Task” in my store…and you get a TON with each one!
- Differentiated tasks to provide the same problem with different “access” levels
- “Math by the Numbers” cards to get students working on “making sense” of problems and determining solution strategies
- Math practice activities to use the real-world problem to practice differentiated computation and problem solving
- Math enrichment opportunities
- Math talk prompts
- Digital slides
- And more!
I have bundled them together to offer them in one convenient file at a reduced price. If you already own several of these, you may not want to invest in this—but if you only own one or two, this is a great bargain for you! Not sure what these are? Check out the preview for more information and see the individual thinker tasks for additional information.
Where did my inspiration come from?
For years, I have wished and hoped for a resource that would provide my students with high quality, open-ended tasks to allow them to apply what they learn to real world situations. Guess what? They are hard to find! So I thought and I thought…and finally, the idea for a flexible, high-level series of problems came to me. They can be used in so many ways–
- with your whole class
- with enrichment groups
- or fast finishers
- or even in different ways with different students!
