Writing about math encourages creativity, exploration, and communicating one's thoughts and feelings. Students must organize their thinking, use key vocabulary terms and phrases, and communicate mathematically-which leads to deep and meaningful understanding.

And teachers can use students' writing to assess their learning. When you can read exactly what a student is thinking, you can easily pinpoint how they understand a topic and where their strengths and weaknesses are.

So, are you ready to give your students more opportunities to write about what they are learning in math class? Here are five ideas that are sure to get you started:

Card games, dice, bingo, and more!

When it's time for math facts practice, do you automatically reach for the flash cards? That's one classic way to learn, but it's not very exciting, and some kids just don't respond to it. That's why we're big fans of these new ways to get in some math facts practice. The games, activities, and crafts here are ideal for reluctant learners and lots of fun for everyone!

1. Put together egg halves

This is a quick hands-on way to practice math facts. For more excitement, try hiding the egg halves and letting kids hunt for them before they match them up!

Learn more: Homeschool Preschool

2. Roll and multiply

This is like a simpler version of Yahtzee, and it's a cool way to practice multiplication. If you use two dice instead of one, kids can practice their facts up to 12.

Learn more: What We Do All Day

3. Compete at Multiplication Squares

If you've ever played Dots and Boxes, this will look familiar. Players roll two dice (try these polyhedral dice to expand the facts in play), and draw a line to connect two dots next to the answer. If they complete a box, they color it in with their own marker.

Learn more: Games 4 Gains/Multiplication Squares

4. Get Four in a Row

This free printable is completely editable, so you can use it for any type of math facts practice. Kids choose a problem and give the answer. If they get it right, they cover it with their marker. When they get four in a row, they win!

Learn more: Fun Learning for Kids

5. Try "Sticky Math"

Don't confuse Sticky Math with timed tests. The goal is just for kids to complete as many problems as possible in a set amount of time, then work to beat that record each time.

Learn more: Lucky Little Learners

6. Face off in Dice War

Dice games are fantastic in the classroom! With this one, kids practice their addition facts and get a little work with subitizing too. The concept is so simple: Each player rolls the dice and adds up their numbers. The highest sum wins that round. Use this game for subtraction and multiplication too.

Learn more: Miss Giraffe's Class

7. Assemble math-facts grab bags

Fill a variety of bags with collections of small objects. Kids grab a handful from two different bags, then count and add up the results. Be sure they write it all down to get practice at setting up equations. (Also, try this with subtraction and multiplication facts.)

Learn more: Susan Jones Teaching

8. Play Shut the Box

This game has been played for hundreds of years, but it's a fun and sneaky way to practice addition facts fluency! The goal is to "close" each of the numbers in the box from one to nine by rolling the dice. For instance, if a player rolls 11, they may close 1, 2, 3, and 5, as these add up to 11. If no numbers are available to add up to the dice total, play passes to the next player and continues until someone finally "shuts the box" by closing the last available number. You can play this game as people have for centuries with a specially designed box. You don't need the box, though; simply have kids write out the numbers 1 through 9 and cross them out as they play.

9. Play Math Facts War

Each student flips two cards, then adds them (or subtracts, or multiplies). The person with the highest total keeps both cards. For a tiebreaker, flip another card! See more rules at the link.

Learn more: Math Facts War/Creative Family Fun

10. Turn an egg carton into a problem generator

Using an egg carton, have students write the numbers 1 through 12 in the bottom of each depression. Place two marbles inside the egg carton and close the lid. Shake the egg carton, open the top, and then add, subtract, or multiply whichever two numbers the marbles have landed on.

Learn more: The Unlikely Homeschool

11. Assemble a domino puzzle

Dominoes are perfect for math facts practice! Keep it simple by pulling a domino from a bag, then adding, subtracting, or multiplying the two numbers.

For even more fun, print the free puzzles at the link below. Then start filling in the puzzle one piece at a time by placing a domino that adds up to the number shown in each rectangle. The trick is that regular domino rules still apply, so each number must touch another domino with the same number on that end.

Learn more: Games 4 Gains/Domino Math

12. Circle math facts in a Number Search

These number search puzzles are harder than they look! First, kids complete the addition facts. Then, they search for those equations in the puzzle. Get three free puzzles at the link, where you can purchase more if you like them.

Learn more: The Sprinkle Topped Teacher

13. Use flash cards to play Fifteen in a Row

When it comes down to it, flash cards are still one of the best ways to practice fact fluency, but a game can at least make them more fun. The goal is to lay out 15 flash cards in a row by the total of their sums (or differences, products, or dividends), from smallest to largest. Learn how it's played at the link.

Learn more: The Measured Mom

14. Make a math-facts practice wheel

All it takes is paper plates, glue, and a marker to help your students learn their math facts. Up the fun factor by having students decorate their plates any way their imagination can dream up!

Learn more: Math Facts Wheel/Creative Family Fun

15. Whack a ball to subtract

You know your elementary math students are going to love this! Build your own whack-a-mole 10-frame with a shoebox and Ping-Pong balls. Then, have kids whack the balls to practice their subtraction facts. So fun!

Learn more: Planning Playtime

16. Get a jump on your math facts practice

Lay out a grid like the one shown that has the answers to whatever set of math flash cards you're currently working with. (This teacher used masking tape; you could also do sidewalk chalk on the playground.) Two players face off, one on each side of the board. Show the flash card, and kids race to be the first to jump to the correct square with both feet inside the lines. Get all the rules at the link below.

Learn more: Teaching and Tapas

17. Run a flash card race

Tape a series of flash cards to the floor and challenge kids to see who can correctly make their way from start to finish the fastest. They can call out the answers or write them down, but they have to get it right before they move on. Kids can race side by side or work independently to beat their own best time.

Learn more: There's Just One Mommy

18. Draw Waldorf math facts flowers

This is a creative way to teach math facts. Start by drawing the center of a flower and write any number from 1 to 9 in the middle. Next, draw 12 petals around the center, labeling them 1 through 12. Last, draw another 12 petals and write the sum or product of the center number and the petal adjacent to the new petal.

Learn more: Multicultural Motherhood

19. Catch a math beach ball

Beach balls are so much fun in the classroom. Scribble numbers all over one with a Sharpie, then toss it to a student. Wherever their thumbs land, they add (or subtract, or multiply) those two numbers together before tossing the ball to the next student.

Learn more: There's Just One Mommy

20. Practice facts by stacking cups

We're not sure why, but kids simply love stacking cups. Label yours with math problems and answers, then have kids build pyramids and towers galore!

Learn more: The Kindergarten Smorgasboard

21. Design an outdoor board game

Draw a winding path and fill the spaces with math equations. Kids roll the dice and move from space to space (have them jump, skip, or twirl to mix things up). If they get the answer right, they move to the new space. If not, their turn is over. Customizable math games like this can be used at any level.

Learn more: Look! We're Learning

22. Compete at math bingo

Math facts bingo is so easy to set up and play! Give kids empty grids and ask them to write various sums, differences, products, or quotients, depending on what you're working on. Then call out math problems and have them cover the answers. First to fill in a row wins!

Learn more: Happy Go Lucky

23. Play math facts checkers

Label a checkerboard with math facts. Play checkers as usual, following the traditional rules. The twist is, you must solve the math problem you land on!

Learn more: Teach Beside Me

24. Change your students' names (temporarily)

This is so clever! Grab some name tags and write math facts on each. Give a tag to each of your students. For the remainder of the day, everyone will refer to one another by the answer to the equation on their tag (e.g., the student with the name tag that says 7×6 would be referred to as "42").

Learn more: Mr. Elementary Math

25. Match up math facts

Play Memory (also called Concentration) with math facts. Get free printable cards at the link for addition facts to get you started.

5 Super-fun ways to practice math facts!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It's actually hard for me to type this title after years and years and years of math drills that made my elementary-school head want to explode.
Can learning math facts be fun? Is it possible that learning these facts can actually be 'super-fun'?
That may still be debatable.

But what these five ways do is mix up the ole flashing of the flashcards and trick out the rote learning of these guys. Learning math facts is actually kinda fun.

Scratch that. It's fun. Pretty darn fun.
Instead we use some movement, some flashlights, and some technology to up the fun factor.
And honestly? That may have been enough to move from totally awful to kinda fun for this gal way back when.

Here's the skinny. . .

5 Super-Fun Ways to Learn Math Facts:

Like I said, super-fun is up for discussion but there is certainly some fun to be had with these math fact practices.
Let's try it.
1. Play with dice. Really. Toss the flash cards and practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing using the numbers you roll on dice.

2. Flashlight math. Use the flashcards and flip two cards at a time. Kids shine a flashlight on the one they know and answer that one. Simple. Don't have a flashlight? Make a math wand. Bumblebee wand, perhaps? Use a stick or a light saber. Anything that works for your kid.

3. Use electronics. We love My Math Flash Cards App on the iPad and Math Practice Flashcards on my android phone. There are a gazillion flash card apps out there. I'm sure any would do the trick, and if you have five minutes and your kid says, ' Can I play a game on your phoooooone?' Say 'Why yes you may! I'm so very glad you asked. . . '

4. Write the answer. Or paint the answer. Water on cement or chalk on sidewalk or window crayon on window. One person flashes the cards and the other guy writes.

5. Again, toss the flashers and play Math Bingo as a way to learn and practice these numbers.

Five of many more cool ways, my friends, but this is just a start.

Okay a few more:

Answer races: Stand on one side of the room and make kids run to the other side of the room to write the answer on a long piece of roll paper on the floor or taped to the wall.

Go crazy. You flip the card and say it in one voice and the child says the answer in the same kind of voice (whisper, grumble, shout, squeaky, princess, etc.).

Skype or Facetime with family members and have them flash the cards and the kids say the answers.

Check out the Multiplication Post where we shared all of the things Maddy was doing.

Play Strike it Out to practice those facts and critical thinking.

Try Magic Triangles to really get the fun flowing.

Get nuts and try any one of these 3 hands-on math games.

As in anything you do with kids, keep it light, keep the pressure off, and make it fun. As soon as your child starts reaching a frustration level, stop.

Need the cards? Desperate for some mini's?
Here they are:
Consider starting with one fact family or number set at a time. And print the cards on brightly colored card stock so they last longer and look nicer.

Most of all? Have a super-fun time.

WAAAAAAAAH! it's glitchy and my profile sometimes turns into a sickly yellow blob with blank eyes so I kind of get creeped out and sometimes the screen stops when I log in and it's just a plain green screen and the coach penny puzzle pictures are too much for me,and it usually glitches and I čåñt hear anything and theyrs just coach penny's eyes,so like. #CoachPennyGetALife #RemoveYourPuzzlePictures! And also when I go to customize my tree the screen turns black! WAAAAHHHH! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

WAAAHHHHHHHHHH! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😢😢😢😫😫😫😫😖😖😖😩😩😩😩😩🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧😢😭😪😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 WAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Please UPDATE!!

Parents, read this

I am a student and I'm in grade 3. I think reflex is a great app but in my opinion l think it needs some upgrades. Again this is in my opinion so just know that l don't want you to change it (although that would be AWESOME) but l want you to hear me out. First, in the beginning you have to charge up the fact fair (I think that's what it called). It chooses which activities you do. I think it would improve if us kids could choose. Anyway sometimes in the fact fair it would give you darts. The dart game is were you answer facts and if you get it right, it hits a balloon. Honestly l love that one but the problem is it times you while it's shooting the darts. I think if you speed up the darts speed that would improve a lot. Second, The games are great but there's a problem. I played this app for a YEAR with school now, and suddenly a game disappeared in my game field. I don't think there's a way to fix this. It's weird how that just happened suddenly. I think it was a glitch. Thank you for reading this. This app is good and all, but l think it needs some upgrades.

This is why you should get reflex ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Reflex is amazing 🤩 I love it what I really love is that it helps you get better at math and I used to not be so good at math but now sense I have got reflex it has helped me a lot and it can help your kids to the more math facts you solve the more coins you get and then when you get a lot of coins you can go and spend some of them on new clothes for your avatar and a lot more you can become really good at math like me let me make a little challenge I have 10,000 coins I want you to see if you can get more coins than me can you ? Who knows who can you may even get smarter than me I love reflex so much the second I got on reflex I new that there was a hole another me and this is why you should get reflex

Editors' Choice

Khan Academy is an education app for everyone-whether you're a parent helping your first grader with geometry or a postgrad looking for a deep dive into microfinance. If there's a topic you want to learn about-no matter how basic or advanced-chances are Khan Academy has a video lesson for it.

Amazing app

This app is absolutely fantastic and I want to make it clear I gave it 4 stars only because I personally have some things I wished would be added to to make this app better. Like for instance videos that are not drawn out by hand, don't get me wrong this is a good visual sometimes but sometimes I feel the visual falls kinda short to if it was either animated or demonstrated (specifically for the science lessons especially). That being said I want to be clear, that's all fine tuning for the perfection of this app. This app has helped me learn soooo much and it's completely free. Most all of the teachers are excellent and the fact that this is videotaped lectures means you can watch anytime at your own speed. I wished things like this were used more widely and familiarized in my state (not that a lot of people don't use it already cause they do, I just wished it got pointed to if nothing else more as a sort of in general go to guide among other similar programs by schools and government PSAs more.) but that's not this apps fault. My hopes is that some elected official somewhere will see this comment and this will give them the idea to make this more second nature for people to pick up somehow via PSAs etc

Amazing!!!

I personally love this app. My son and daughter has been using it until they were toddlers since they are twelve now they still use it! I told them to use it a lot since that they could still use it when they are older....my son he uses it when he has stress with his homework so that he could have more ideas! I think this app is made for everyone because when they were just little small toddler I helped them on some stuff so they could do some simple math an now since they are older now I could let them be so they could experience the world of learning in Khan Academy! I decided to write a review this time of the year because since they are back to school they could maybe have some experience in what their class is learning! Something they really like about this app and I do too is that it corrects them if they got it wrong so they try it again. But um mean during quarantine when school did not start yet they have been using this app for hours...every time their mom and I ask them out for lunch or breakfast they always say 1 more hour 🤗. I think they really like it now but I think they are too into it their mom said maybe their growing up to fast and forgetting about us. But I think that they just need to have some time and think! OTHERWISE THEY LOVE THE APP!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS APP AND YOUR TEAM WE LOVE IT!!!!

Version 7.2.0

updated to support newer iOS version

This app is great, but....

This is a great app! It is very educational! It has an option for starters and advanced which I think is very helpful!
The only thing I would change is making the app fun for kids! The app is really boring and doesn't give you anything to work for! Other apps let you collect coins or tokens for doing good and getting prizes or something! This app is very very very boring!!!
If you are looking for a fun app for kids then this is not the right app for you!

Most useful math app EVER

It is a 10/10 game, and prob the best ever! All the other multiple choice math apps are not as useful, but this one is! It has a number pad where u type ur answers, and it makes a satisfying BlOoP if u get it right. I would suggest this game to anyone who wants to work on their math facts, whether it's multiplication, division, subtraction, or adding! It also has a beginner or expert area, so u can pick what u want to work on. Just overall, an amazing app!!

You should download!!!

I love this app! It is so easy to use and all the apps I ever had required you to sign up, and the best part is this app is 100% free! All you have to do is download it then you start, and it has a beginner level and a pro level which is so helpful. It also lets you choose if you would like subtraction or addition multiplication or division. Five star 100% best app I ever had!

Chalkboard Math is the perfect app for elementary school students in need of math practice in the following areas: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

In addition to be a fun app that allows students to play Chalkman (similar to Hangman) while practicing math facts and giving positive audio feedback for both correct and incorrect answers, Chalkboard Math has been verified by professional educators to help promote the following skills:

1) Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10. (US Common Mathematics Core Standard: 1.OA.6)

2) Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers. (US Common Mathematics Core Standard: 2.OA.2)

3) Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers. (US Common Mathematics Core Standard: 3.OA.7)

Here's how the app works:

You first choose the numbers (1-12) that you want to work with, and then choose the math operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division).

The app will then speak out the problem (if your volume level is set, and device not on mute) - and then either present the correct answer or go on to the next problem. The app offers positive words of encouragement for both correct and incorrect answers.

If you are playing the Chalkman game, you need to get 25 problems correct to win and save the Chalkman character from erasure.

Chalkboard Math also has a Flashcard mode that you can enable to learn math facts. If you are on the go, you no longer have to carry flashcards with you to practice math.

Developer issue

Does not work with iPhone X......... comes up with a message saying developer needs to fix issue to make compatible with iOS version.

Sound stopped

The audio voice feedback and history stopped working.

This app needs to be fixed

Used to be great, has changed now... please bring back the customizable voices.
