These activities/lessons/games were demonstrated at the two-day Second Grade Common Core Learning Standards Workshop help in May and June 2011.

 * LINE Plot: 2.MD.9, 2.MD.10, 2.MD.1, 2.MD.4 **

Materials: Rulers Poster Paper Graph Paper

Have each student measure their foot in inches. Have someone else measure their foot to check for accuracy. If they do not agree on the measurement, both should measure again and come to a consensus. Create a line plot (see attached) of the length of each student’s foot. They should mark an “x” over the number of inches their foot is.

After all of the data is collected, the student will then create a bar grade to represent the data.

Answer the following questions using the graphed data.

1. What is the difference between the largest foot and the smallest foot in inches?

2. How many students are in our class?

3. What foot size is the most popular?

**Fact Families 2.OA.1, 2.OA.2, 2.NBT.9 ** <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">Materials:

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">Number Cards 1 to 20

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">Symbol Cards =, +, and – <span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">1. Give each student a number card or a symbol card.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">2. Choose a student to go up to the front of the class with their number card. For example choose the student who has the number 9 card to go up front.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">3. Ask the students who could go up to the front to make the number nine. An example would be 2 and 7. Have the students holding the 2 and 7 cards go up to the front of the room with the nine.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">4. Now have the + sign go to the front and stand between the 2 and the 7. Ask the equals sign to join them in the correct place.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">5. Next have the – sign come up and change the location of the equal sign.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">6. Change numbers and try again.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">7. As a variation, use the dice to determine what numbers are being used and have the students create the fact families from there.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">Materials:

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">Large Paper

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">Dice

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">Sticky Notes

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">1. Have each student create a place value chart. To start have them make 3 sections, ones, tens and hundreds. As they increase their skill set, you can have them add the thousands place.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">2. The object of the game is to create the highest number rolled on the die. You can also do a variation of the game where you are trying to make the lowest number.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">3. Have a student roll the die and then everyone has to write that number on a sticky note and decide where to place in on their place value mat. Once the number is placed, the students cannot move it.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">4. Continue these steps until all of the spaces are filled in.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">5. Have the students read their numbers aloud. If they read the number correctly (with no "ands" for example two hundred and forty five) then they are the winner.

<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 19px; line-height: normal;">Place value boards-1 per student <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 19px; line-height: normal;">Popsicle Sticks-50 per student <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 19px; line-height: normal;">Rubber bands-5 per student <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 19px; line-height: normal;">Dice-1 per team

<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;">The students take turns rolling the dice and place that many sticks in their "ones" column. As soon as they can make a "ten" they bundle 10 sticks in a rubber band and move it to the "tens". The game continues until one of the pair have 5 tens. The game can be played in reverse - start with 5 tens and subtract the amount shown on the dice. This game helps students to understand regrouping. After students have mastered this game, move the next board that goes to 100. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;">

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">1. Fold your full sheet in half (hamburger style).

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">2. Fold the halves in half (the same way). The paper should now be folded into fourths looking like a fan or room divider.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">3. Grab the center two folds and cut up to the fold in the middle. Now cut those two pieces in half and then again in half. There should be eight separate pieces now.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">4. Take your half sheet of tag board and cut it in half the long way.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">5. Weave the half sheets into the whole sheet. Make sure they are weaved opposite on each side.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">6. Write your facts on the weaved pieces not on the whole sheet. You can make up to 16 questions.

<span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic','sans-serif'; font-size: 16px; line-height: 115%;">7. Have the flip book "point" at you and place your thumbs on the mat and open the center. Write your answers on the weaved pieces inside.
