Group Activity Cards

Use groups of 3. Materials: 10 index cards, grid paper

Picture This

Copy one expression from below onto each index card. Shuffle the cards and lay them face down.

Turn over the first card. All group members then use the grid paper to draw a picture for the division problem. Draw either a geoboard picture of the problem or try to find a unique way to draw the quotient. When you have drawn a picture of the problem, find each quotient.

When all group members are done, compare drawings and answers. Discuss which drawing was the most unique and which drawing was the easiest to understand. Play several rounds or play until all the cards have been used. Share with the entire class some of your group's unique ideas.
