One of the most versatile tools that math teachers use to create engaging and interactive lessons is the usage of task cards and whiteboards. Something as simple as a task card can turn standards worksheet problems into a collaborative and tactile task. Another common way to elevate math practice is to give kids clear paper pockets. This de-stigmatizes making errors and offers kids an opportunity to work on a task without needing a lot of copies! Using whiteboards/clear pockets also assists students with occupational therapy goals since it is smoother to write on then paper.
