Post: Resource for quick math extensions?

Posted by Courtney on 3/26/08

    I teach multi-age 1st-3rd in a small independent school. My
    span of grades and developmental levels has made me *very*
    flexible this year!

    Right now I'm looking for a "quick and easy" resource -- if
    one exists -- to help me with my math planning, which is
    bogging me down. I use small group instruction for my math
    workshop so I can accommodate all of my levels. I am trying
    to use more "math task" types of activities for my students,
    so they are not only doing workbooks or playing math games
    when they're not in a group.

    The problem is, I don't have time to come up with that many
    math tasks all of the time! But I can't seem to find a book
    or website out there that can help. I guess what I'm really
    looking for are extension activities that students can
    complete independently or with a partner...one day or
    multiple days...not just solving a word problem but
    something a little more involved.

    Does anyone know of such a resource that exists? Oh -- I
    use Singapore Math, and actually only need the problems for
    my 2nd/3rd graders, because most of my first graders are all
    set with games.

    Thanks for any help that might be out there!
