FREE MATH LESSON - “Sweet Treats Math Scoot {Task Cards} FREEBIE”

by Sailing into Second
1st - 3rd Grade

This set of math scoots or task cards is filled with engaging and fun activities to get your students moving and learning at the same time! 

Here's how a scoot works...have students “scoot” around the room with a clipboard. They pick a card and solve the math problem, then they record their answers on the response sheet. Easy and fun!

Scoots are a great way to review concepts throughout a math unit or even as a mini assessment to see what students need more reinforcement or practice with that skill.
