Great strategy

When first introduced to order of operations my class was quite confused. I used this activity to reinforce the steps and the class was quite engaged. I had more success teaching order of operations with this than I have in the past 10 years. Thank you.

Great activity

Absolute GREAT activity. Students really get involved in the creation and learn as they go. A great tool for them to use as a visual aid when beginning their problems too.

Fun!

My middle school math intervention students may sometimes complain about having to do "kindergarten coloring stuff," but they really had fun with this project. I had them hung up for PTC and the kiddos explained them for their parents.
