Math Time Task Cards

So the end of the year is almost here. 16 more days! So much left to do, though. We have been working with time to the minute and story problems here recently. I decided to make some time task cards.
Math 3.MD.1 Time Task Cards
I am so excited for these. You should really take a second and look at them!

New to Teachers Pay Teachers!

So, I finally listed something to sell on Teachers Pay Teachers.
I will admit, that I am still learning how to do everything. Inserting the pretty clipart is something I am new to, so my first products certainly reflect that.
I uploaded some government worksheets including a test that we just finished using in our classroom.

You can find my resource here!

We have been using MDI's this school year in math. Meaningful Distributed Instruction is MDI. These are very short, they should take about 5 minutes total. To be honest, when I first started they took about 15 mins, now we are down to 5. Students are presented a story problem and they are to solve it. Every student has to try. The focus is on how they solve the problem, what strategy they use. I walk around and choose 3 students who hopefully used 3 different strategies. They come and explain their thinking to the whole class. My job is to help them make connections to things we are learning in class. Then I choose one strategy, go over how it is used, and then present students with another problem. They then use that strategy on their second problem. I choose one student to come model. We try to figure out if the student used the strategy that was modeled and chosen. 

Well since we have been using these this year and will continue to next year, I made a file to help keep me organized. We do 3 MDI's a week. It has 60 MDI's, with a focus of multiplication and division. The packet includes a list of all the story problems. I also print two sided and cut in half. First problem is on the front and second problem is on the back. Students write on their paper and then into their mailboxes they go.
