I have begun to start research on math activities for the PLUS Time students. The Minnesota Department of Education had some resources that I am looking through, including some online math games for the students. Though I am hoping to come up with primarily group game activities, I think it is beneficial to have a list of computer games that the students can play as well, especially since students who have completed their homework generally spend time in the computer lab on the computers.
My first math activity will be to play Math Bingo. I am planning to make Bingo cards in which the students must solve the math problems (such as 1+3, or 2x4, etc.) before they can play so that they have the numbers for the game. I am planning to laminate the cards and buy overhead projector markers so that the cards can be used over and over again. I also will have to make Bingo cards for different levels. Hopefully I will be able to get started on the game this weekend.
