00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,760
Today is the day to dive into second grade math tasks and in this show notes

2
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,360
You can find a link to one that you can try absolutely free

3
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:21,700
Hello and welcome to making number sense make sense a podcast for elementary teachers specifically early elementary teachers

4
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,800
Looking to really make an impact in the number sense of their students

5
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:31,960
We talked about kindergarten talked about first grade and today is the day for second grade and

6
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,200
a huge part of the bundle that I worked on is

7
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:42,720
Different problem types that your students can use that they will see over and over again in the math

8
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,480
Curriculums that they're using including one step and two step story of problems

9
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:50,680
but today I'm gonna dive into the ones that aren't necessarily as

10
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,500
Cut and dry that have a little more spice to them with a story

11
00:00:55,500 --> 00:01:00,120
So the first one is skip counting by five tens and hundreds

12
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,120
So in this task your students are in an orange factory and this orange factory

13
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:13,400
Offers gift baskets that come with five oranges per basket ten oranges per basket or a hundred oranges per basket

14
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,920
So your students have to help the orange factory the orange is sweet orange factory

15
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:25,680
Fill all of their orders so they have to figure out how many oranges they need for each order by skip counting by five

16
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,920
tens or hundreds

17
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:33,120
it's got fin slicing already built in with the different orders that they try and

18
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,240
The check your understanding falls right along with it. The next task

19
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,600
I'm gonna share is all about reading and writing numbers to a thousand

20
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,800
so the story here is that there is an alien planet called Cantaria and

21
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,940
They are trying to prep for the out-of-this-world

22
00:01:50,460 --> 00:01:55,840
Alien block party, but there is some translation issues between all of the different

23
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:02,520
Aliens the aliens speak all different languages and they can't communicate with each other to plan this party

24
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:09,760
So the different aliens are the standard tracks aliens who write all their numbers in standard form or write all their communications

25
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:16,760
In standard form the base, Pennsylvania aliens that write theirs in base 10 the numeria aliens that write their

26
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,600
messages in word form and the

27
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,480
Expandatron aliens that write all of their communication in expanded form

28
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,480
So your groups will have a record of communication that has some gaps in it

29
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,080
So they need to figure out which form they're working on and then

30
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:40,880
Complete the different numbers in all of the forms to save the day and make sure that all the aliens attend the out-of-this-world

31
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,480
Block party to celebrate their planet

32
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,720
The next task is an addition and subtraction

33
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,200
Word problem task involving length

34
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,840
so in this one your students have come across a

35
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,920
Treasure map and this treasure map has different distances between 0 and 100 to different

36
00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:08,620
Landmarks in the area where the treasure is so your students have to figure out the distance of each path and

37
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:15,200
Decide which path is the one that they want to take to be able to get to the treasure in the shortest amount of time

38
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,680
The way that they're going to figure it out is they're going to use the clues

39
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:24,160
Given which is their thin slicing the different clues telling them which landmarks they need to hit in

40
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:29,680
Order to reach the treasure and the check your understanding piece is if they want to make a detour

41
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,400
So they know where the treasure chest is

42
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:39,480
But they might have the opportunity to get some pearls or gems or something else that might make it worth their while to make a detour

43
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,000
On their way to find the treasure this next task is about partitioning

44
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:51,480
Rectangles into rows so there is a brownie bakery that takes very special orders

45
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:58,800
And in these orders the clients decide how many rows and columns they want in each of their brownie pans

46
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:06,600
And that will help your students figure out what the total number of brownies should be so to start with they're going to partition

47
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:12,860
Into rows and columns and count how many the total is and the thin slicing is if they finish all of the orders

48
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:19,320
Now they only know the total I need to figure out how they can partition their brownie pan to work

49
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:24,840
And so they have little brownies they can work on they also have a big one that you can put into a dry erase sleeve

50
00:04:24,840 --> 00:04:32,080
So they can practice and see what will work best for the orders that they are working on if you heard the first grade

51
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,220
Task this might sound familiar. This is the return of the

52
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:42,340
Cube queen and the popsicle stick King so they are again trying to remodel a room in their castle

53
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:49,420
But they're having a disagreement about what's the best way to measure by cubes or by popsicle sticks?

54
00:04:49,420 --> 00:04:57,080
So in this task your students will have to measure each item twice with the cubes and with the popsicle sticks and figure out

55
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:03,760
When it's better to use a popsicle stick versus a cube and this the consolidation piece will again be a note-taking

56
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:10,140
Where they can really think on the what they have just done and when it would be best to use different

57
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:16,180
Measuring tools to get the best results the last task. I'm going to share with you today is

58
00:05:16,180 --> 00:05:19,720
The ice cream shop arrays task

59
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:26,320
So in this one the your students have a dream of opening their own ice cream shop called the world of swirls

60
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,760
But they know that they need to start a little smaller and build up to that goal

61
00:05:30,840 --> 00:05:37,100
So they start with an ice cream cart and they're gonna complete orders given to them by their clients

62
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:41,400
so in this one they can only take up to three orders at a time so three cones at a time and

63
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:48,840
The ticket or the receipt will let your students know how many scoops each cone needs and they'll find the total

64
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:54,660
Once they finish that that's their first their original task the thin slices they get to move up

65
00:05:54,660 --> 00:06:00,120
So they already they are rocking it with the ice cream stand. They want to move up to an ice cream truck

66
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:07,340
So in the ice cream truck they can fill up to four cone orders at a time with varying amounts of scoops

67
00:06:07,340 --> 00:06:13,460
Find the total and then finally they will make it to their own ice cream shop that can make up to

68
00:06:13,900 --> 00:06:18,980
five cones at a time with up to five scoops per cone and

69
00:06:19,300 --> 00:06:23,260
Calculate the total of how much ice cream each order will use

70
00:06:23,740 --> 00:06:28,540
Working in second grade and coming up with tasks for second grade was a lot of fun

71
00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:34,260
Because I feel like they've got the foundations from kindergarten. They got the foundations from first grade now

72
00:06:34,260 --> 00:06:39,860
You can really dive into the stories and making it come to life making the math come to life for them in

73
00:06:40,380 --> 00:06:46,340
Context in a way that will get them excited to keep going and excited to get to the next step

74
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:48,740
Whatever that step maybe

75
00:06:49,020 --> 00:06:51,620
Please let me know if you have any questions about these tasks

76
00:06:51,620 --> 00:06:56,140
If you want to see them in action get a closer look you can check the blog post that is in the show notes

77
00:06:56,380 --> 00:06:58,380
There is a free two-step

78
00:06:58,380 --> 00:07:05,060
Subtraction task that you can get again in the show notes below and you can reach out to me on Instagram and let me know

79
00:07:05,060 --> 00:07:29,060
How it went?
