 I created this game as a place value review for my students.  It supports sol 3.1a, read, write, and identify the place and value of each digit in a six-digit whole number.  In this 4-round game, students work in small groups cooperatively.  After each round is completed, the student takes the recording sheet to the teacher to be checked.  Students shoot a small ball into a trash can, laundry basket, or bucket from lines taped on the floor to earn points for their team.  This game is very engaging and helped my students practice place value and learn to work together as a team. 

This is as a study game to help students better identify and internalize definitions and explanations of key political parties, concepts, and people from the late 18th and early 19th centuries in the United States.

This is a remix of Polygons from Illustrative Mathematics, https://tasks.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1506.The purpose of this lesson is for students to define and practice identifying polygons to support sol 3.12a and 3.12b.  The lesson starts with a discussion about four polygons (triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, and hexagons).  Next, students play a game called 4 corners.  By incorporating movement games and activities in my classroom, the attention and behavior of my students have improved.    

 I created a Google Slide presentation and  game for my students to practice probability.  This lesson supports sol 3.14, investigate and describe the concept of probability as a measurement of chance and list possible outcomes for a single event.  Prior to this lesson, my students did an experiment of chance by tossing a coin.  The Google Slide presentation reviews probability vocabulary and asks students questions about the probability of pulling a certain color marble from a box.  Students turn and talk to their neighbor during the presentation about the chance of an event occurring.  Then, the teacher asks one of the students to stand and tell the class what their neighbor said.  After the presentation, students play a Google Slides game.  I created the game for distance learning but I will be able to use it in the classroom too.

Rhyming Words Coding is a cross-curricular lesson designed by an Elementary Computer Resource Teacher to support Math instruction. Created By: Amanda Henley Powhatan County Public Schools..

This a a Bike Race game from Gamilab about public and private information that is based on SOL 8.9. The player will navigate a biker through a path by correctly answering questions about information. The biker is navigated by using the arrow keys on a keyboard. 

This is a game on Quizalize.com based on the Computer Science standard 6.13 on data types and transmission speeds. The students will click the link to take them to the game. The questions can be read aloud to the students. 

I created this game to use as a review before tests such as the benchmarks and SOLs. Students will review multiple reading skills and strategies throughout the game. This is a fun and engaging activity to help students review and practice for upcoming tests. Multiple SOLs may be covered.

English Learners with different proficiency levels will be able to practice fruits and vegetables vocabulary (beginner ELs) or Virginia Studies in a fun and engaging way. 

Excel of resources for elementary exploration. Each resource is accompanied by a short descriptions and link.

This activity integrates telling time with dancing. Students have fun while dancing to some of their favorite music.  The students can build on their background knowledge of analog clocks.  Times indicated on the clocks show time to the hour, quarter past, half past, quarter to, 5 minutes).  This is a fun way to help students become masters at telling time.

The students will roll the dice and complete a physical exercise the number of times  shown on the die.

A fun dice game to get students excited about figuring out addition and subtraction problems.  This activity will help children learn to build greater knowledge of addition/subtraction equations and sums/differences.  Studemts are able to exercise and to have fun while building fundamental skills.  This activity can also be adapted to multiply and division.

Counting money is an important life skill.  I created this game to give my students hands on practice with counting money.  This activity supports sol 3.6a, determine the value of a collection of bills and coins whose total value is $5.00 or less.  This game has three recording sheets so that you can differentiate based on the needs of your students.  Students play with a partner to roll a die, write the number under each column, and put coins on the work mat to count.  Before playing this game, we sorted coins and talked about their characteristics.  Students need to be able to recognize the coins and know their value to be able to count money.  While students play the game, I walk around to help students as needed and to assess their counting ability.  This helps to guide my instruction for future lessons.

K.NS.1 The student will utilize flexible counting strategies to determine and describe quantities up to 100a) Use one-to-one correspondence to determine how many are in each set containing 30 or fewer concrete objects (e.g., cubes, pennies, balls) and describe the last number named as the total number of objects counted.

This activity is a great resource to help students learn about their school!  It meets all five criteria for the OER:  Retain, Reuse, Revise, Remix, Redistribute
