15 REINFORCING MATHEMATICAL VOCABULARY

16 ABC BOOKS 1. Students create the cover. They can call them a Math Dictionary, ABC Book, or another title. 2. As new terms are introduced, students add them to their books. Then they can include an example for each of their new terms. It could be a math example or sentence.

26 ANGLES ARE Angles are the squares on the carpet. Angles are the tiles on the ceiling. Angles are acute on pieces of cake. Angles are right angles when I put my glasses on. Angles are my legs when I bend them. FROM LITERACY + MATH = CREATIVE CONNECTIONS IN THE ELEMENTARY CLASSROOM (P ) BY JENNIFER L. ALTIERI INTERNATIONAL READING ASSOCIATION.

27 DIVISION IS Division is when I have six cookies, but two of my friends want to share them with me. Division is when we have twenty kids in the classroom, but the teacher wants us to make two equal lines to go down the hall. Division is when we have only one pizza for dinner, but it has to feed my three sisters and myself. FROM CREATING POETRY: REINFORCING MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS (P ) BY JENNIFER L. ALTIERI IN TEACHING CHILDREN MATHEMATICS (AUGUST 2005).

29 SMALLER THAN Isaiah is smaller than the teacher. Maco s foot is smaller than Tiffany s foot. The Oreo we have for snack time is smaller than the graham cracker. The distance Maria can jump is smaller than the distance Greg can jump. FROM CREATING POETRY: REINFORCING MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS (P ) BY JENNIFER L.

39 CREATIVE STORIES

40 Cubed: Three is a Magic Number There once was a cubed symbol who was stubborn, stubborn, stubborn. Then he met a Genie that gave him three, three, three wishes. He wished to have a friend to understand, stand, stand him. He wished he was the most important symbol of all, all, all. His last wish was to live a happy life forever, ever, ever. Cubed - The product in which a number is a factor three times. FROM LITERACY + MATH = CREATIVE CONNECTIONS IN THE ELEMENTARY CLASSROOM (P ) BY JENNIFER L. ALTIERI INTERNATIONAL READING ASSOCIATION.
