Using Wixie in Primary Math
New approaches to math improve fluency through the use of creative technology tools.
Use these examples of math projects created by primary students to inspire technology integration in your classroom.
These digital projects were created by students using Wixie.
Students practice counting through the creation of a Halloween (or any holiday!) counting book.
Students categorize objects in their environment into basic shapes.
Students practice making patterns and then record narration explaining their pattern.
Click the play button to listen to the student explain their pattern.
Have students illustrate an addition or subtraction story and record an explaination of the problem. Collect the student projects into a class book and solve all the problems together.
Use this choice board to put students in charge of how they will practice counting.
I saw an #fcpsSBTS using Wixie as a tool in math so today we tested out math choice boards! The small group that tested it out had a lot of fun showing their math thinking in a new way pic.twitter.com/2P7pV3ob3l
