Students are asked to draw a set of two-dimensional shapes, and build three-dimensional shapes from clay. This task may be used for instructional or assessment purposes.

This resource is part of Tools4NCTeachers.This packet contains exit tickets for the First Grade, Cluster 6. Exit tickets are written responses to questions posed at the end of a lesson. They are brief assessments which allow the teacher to determine student understanding of the concepts and skills taught that day.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers.Students need distributed practice of newly-learned skills to develop fluency, build proficiency, and deepen understanding. This file contains directions for activities which may be used as Cluster 6 games or math stations.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains sample anchor charts to create with students. Anchor charts are to be made with students, then displayed as a classroom reference. Parents may also benefit from seeing anchor charts, as they provide a snapshot into the math class.Remix this resource to include pictures of your own anchor charts.

This geometry concentation game is from Tools4NCTeachers.Math games are fun, motivating, and provide opportunities for students to build number concepts, reasoning, and fluency. This game may be used as math stations or as whole group learning opportunity.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers.This resource contains a set of two PowerPoints (one for two-dimensional shapes and one for three-dimensional shapes).  Each PowerPoint contains several activities and tips for exploring geometry and developing vocabulary. These PowerPoint slides may be used to support the development of lesson plans or provide proessional development to teachers.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers.  This is a set of four tasks, which may be used for instruction or assessment.  Each file contains a separate task, rubric, and recording sheets.  Students are asks to parittion shapes into equal parts, with a focus on halves and fourths.Remix this resource to include extension ideas or addtional tasks.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains a set of 4 tasks (including scoring rubric, recording sheet, printable materials, and student work samples).  The tasks may be used for instruction or assessment. The focus of standard G.3 is on partitioning circles and rectangles into 2, 3, and 4 equal shares.  Most of this resource focuses on partitioning rectangles.  Please remix this resource to add additional circle tasks. Sharing is caring!

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students explore partitioning shapes into halves and fourths.  The lesson could be taught consecutively in one math block or extended over multiple days depending on students’ understanding of the concept of halves and fourths.
