How to Use This BookThese practice pages were designed for flexible use. Kids can work onthem individually, in pairs, in small groups, or as a whole class. Havestudents work on the sheets:

• for reinforcement of skills during a unit

• for review after a unit is completed

• when they are finished with other class work

• as a morning activity to start the day

• after lunch to settle back into learning

• as skill-building homework

Refer to the table of contents to locate a practice page that builds aparticular math skill. For easy reference, math skills are also listed in abox at the top of each practice page. You can use the pages in theorder they are presented or rearrange the order to suit the needs ofyour class.

Most of the activity pages require only a pencil and eraser. A fewrequire scissors, glue, crayons, and other materials that are easilyaccessible. If sending home the sheets as homework, review thedirections in advance to answer any questions that children have.You might also review the materials and modify them if necessary.

After students have finished a page, have them share and discuss theiranswers with partners, in groups, or as a class. On pages 63–64, you’llfind a complete answer key. Allow students to share and discuss theirresponses and problem-solving strategies. You might first have themdiscuss their ideas in small groups so that everyone has a chance toparticipate. Then review the answers together as a group to be surethat everyone understands how to solve each problem.

Feel free to modify any of the practice pages to fit your students’needs. (For example, on page 18 you could create additional cardswith more difficult subtraction problems after your students havemastered the ones presented here.) For an extra challenge, havechildren think of their own problems based on the problems andinformation provided on each page—for example, challenge studentsto think of additional telephone and bike lock patterns on page 8.Have students share the problems they made up so that the rest ofthe class can solve them.
