Only one more! We’re on eleven. Read this and then flee to have fun teaching’s great song catalog.

Little Johnny had no idea about eleven.
But his teacher said it was merely four and seven!
Oh, said Johnny with a smile for Ms. Blevin,
I guess I do know eleven!

So our lovely journey has brought us to the number nine. I feel like the count from Sesame Street. Ah, ah, ah! Nine apples!
Try looking over the selection of over a hundred songs on have fun teaching, all of which can easily be a springboard for a lesson. Even this silliness I’m doing with rhyming, I’m sure your students could come up with great stories about the number nine…

Once there were several Knights, who numbered nine.
Monsters and dragons they fought near a mine.
They finally won, and tied them with twine.
But the nine Knights let them go when they whined.

Continuing my series of posts about have fun teaching’s skip counting songs, I wanted to focus on the number 2 this time:

Two, two, I have two shoes.
Boo, hoo, I lost a shoe.
Woo, WOO, I found it by a pole.
Oh, No, it’s got a big hole!

Measuring and understanding when to use which unit is most certainly going to be on standardized testing in younger grade levels. Even 4th and 5th grade and into middle school they dabble with capacity and other complicated units, especially metric. Though you might get some resistance from kids who hate having to learn more than just inches and centimeters, this is an amazing life skill. Think how often a day we use gallons, miles, degrees, cups, and a dozen other common measures. There is hardly a person alive who doesn’t need this.

Compare the numbers, and the alligator eats the bigger number, right? Well, it’s not if you don’t have good number sense. Practice inequalities with these cute worksheets that can be a great send-home piece of work for kids to do with their parents.

Graphing awakes deep fears within our souls, much like that Lovecraftian branch of math known as algebra. I tell you though, it’s not to be feared, but embraced. Hug your bar and line graphs! Learn to love them, because most every standardized test in math or science for the rest of your life will include graphs. Social studies loves to throw in graphs too, just to remind everyone that it’s a subject worth knowing, too. So get to it, learn to label each axis, properly numerate your axis, too, and then draw your major and minor grid lines. And remember… you can tell the kids about Excel and spreadsheets when they’re in college.

Geometry is either the easiest thing to understand or the hardest, depending on how visual-spatial you are. For some of us, we’d rather get the plague than learn all the fancy names and formulas for these shapes and figures. Thankfully, there is a free resource out there to help your kids out at home or your students in the classroom.

Fractions always made a lot of sense to me. I used to push-mow the lawn, and while I did it I’d think about what fraction of it was done. Oh, 7/10 of the yard is cut. I can probably finish in 15 minutes. Well, what came easy for me is like learning Chinese to a lot of kids. They need practice, reinforcement, visual aids, manipulatives, and the whole shebang. Add to your fraction resources with have fun teaching’s fractions section.
