Struggling To Teach Graphing in Math? Try These Graphing Worksheets & Activities
Let’s be honest. Teaching graphing can feel like explaining taxes to a toddler. You start strong, full of hope, your colorful markers in hand. You walk your students through a bar graph with enthusiasm. “Look! The data shows that pizza is the most popular lunch choice!” You turn around, expecting nods of understanding, and instead, you get blank stares. Or worse: a student confidently telling you that hot dogs won because they like hot dogs more. Uggghhhh. Graphing is a critical skill, but it can be tough for students to grasp. Whether it’s misreading pictographs or struggling to plot points on a line plot, these concepts can leave both you and your students scratching their heads. The good news? There’s a simple way to make graphing click. Let’s talk about it.
7 Fun Ways to Teach Different Types of Angles in Geometry
Teaching the different types of angles in upper elementary shouldn’t feel like herding cats: confusing and chaotic. Let’s be real, telling kids that an acute angle is “less than 90 degrees” is just about as exciting as reading the dictionary. Let’s try to make teaching the different type of angles in geometry more engaging instead. Here are 10 fun ways to help your students identify all types of angles! Nothing beats a good anchor chart. Instead of a one and done anchor chart, build it together with your students. Start with a large piece of chart paper, divide it into 4 sections and draw the different types of angles: acute, obtuse, right, and straight. Make sure to use a straight edge, label the angle, and then write a definition for each.
