10. NAME OF STRATEGY: Matching Math Puzzle

11. INCLUDE PICTURES OF THE STRATEGY: /

12. DETAILED STEPS OF THE STRATEGY:

1. Simply scroll down to the bottom of the post and click on the text link that says

>> ____ << under the terms of use. The pdf file will open for you to save and

print the template for the free math game. I suggest printing on cardstock and

laminating for durability as everyone is going to want to try this math activity.

2. To use this free Order of Operations Games simply cut each pumpkin math

puzzle into two pieces, and the puzzles are ready to go!

3. To play this 6th grade math game, students simply calculate the value of the

expression given on the top of each pumpkin. To do this, they must correctly

follow order of operations. Find the bottom pumpkin piece that has the correct

solution. Easy!

13. WITH DETAILS, WHY YOU CHOSE THIS STRATEGY AND HOW IT WILL

HELP THE STUDENT.

I chose this strategy because by using visual cues and illustrations in the game, it

taps into his strength as a visual learner while also reinforcing his mathematical

skills. It can also indirectly enhance his reading skills as well by making the
connections more tangible and memorable. It would require reading and

understanding mathematical terms, instructions, and equations. This interactive

approach combines his visual and reading abilities, making learning more engaging

and effective.
