Math Vocabulary Books - All About Larger Numbers








Trying to remember so much math vocabulary can be hard for first graders. I even have trouble remembering what vocabulary we've covered and not covered sometimes. This year I decided to write class books to wrap up each unit and summarize the concepts taught. Before we take our 9 weeks tests, we will go back and read our books to review. I have also placed these books in the "Math Books" math station - an idea inspired by Debbie Diller's new math station book.

Who Has the Greater Number? (Math Game)



To play this fun and simple game, simply remove the face cards, jokers and 10's from a set of playing cards. Pairs shuffle the deck and place it in the center. Each student draws 2 cards and arranges the digits to build the greatest number possible. The player who can build the greatest number takes all 4 cards. Both players are required to say the number they build out loud. In the case of a tie, both players leave those cards and redraw 2 cards each. The player with the greatest numbers takes all 8 cards. The kids loved it and learned a lot about 2 digit numbers as well as the term "greater."
