This is a great activity after you have taught the doubles and doubles plus one strategy. there are equation cards included and you will show the students the problem. they will solve the problem then mark the answer on their board! this game is perfect for a pausing point or culminating activity. equations included are, 1 1. Once the topic has been thoroughly introduced i like to reinforce the doubles facts by playing a couple of games. this game is called, “i have, who has”. you can use this game for many math concepts but i particularly like it for teaching doubles. someone starts with 1 1 and they read their card, “i have the eyes double, 1 1 = 2.
These three activities helped my students develop a strong understanding of doubles addition, kept them engaged, and provided different ways to show their learning. 1. songs and videos. our favorite song was by harry kindergarten music. it always got us up and moving. another great doubles addition video is one by jack hartmann kids music channel. Welcome to “dollar deals”! these resources are no frills, ready to use stations, centers, lessons, and activities and this one focuses on doubles facts! each game is only a d. Doubles refers to adding the same number twice, for example 5 5. generally when we refer to the doubles addition facts in elementary math, we are referring to facts from 1 1 to about 12 12. the doubles are not so much a math strategy as a set of facts that students should know. when kids know the doubles, they are able to use them as a building. Students will use a paperclip and pencil to make a spinner on their paper to spin for a number. from there, they write the doubles fact for the number they spun and then solve the equation. this is a fantastic center game to get plenty of repetitive practice in and promotes independence in students.
