Free Toolkit: Teaching Math with Creativity

Video Tutorial, Downloadable Templates, and Printable Resources

$Picture$

When we incorporate a bit of creativity into our math classes, not only do we increase engagement, but we also activate parts of the students' brains that lead to stronger learning and retention!

I'm sharing my video here on Teaching Math with Creativity to show you why we need to get more creative, share the specifics of how it impacts the kids' brains when we do, and give you tons of little strategies for how to do it quickly and easily.

I've also got a giant gift for you. I'm sending an entire toolkit for teaching math more creatively out to inboxes. So enter your email below to receive all these free resources, templates, tools, and support! Those materials will allow you to use these creative math teaching methods right in your own classroom!

Is this only for grades 6-12? I signed up before I realized that. I’m a math specialist for k-5.

Hi Amanda,
A lot of this (especially the strategies and templates) can benefit your 4th and 5th graders. The doodle note templates, visual vocabulary, etc. work for any grade level. But most of the math specific content will be targeted to grades 5-11. Thanks, and have a great week,

Hello Brigid,

I am SO excited to start using your Doodle Notes with my students. I keep looking for the email with the free toolkit (especially the Quadrilaterals) and can't see it in my inbox. I definitely subscribed to your site. Can you please help me see how I can gain access? Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful blog. Math can be a difficult subject for some students to understand. However, with a little creativity, math can be taught in a way that is more interesting and engaging. One way to do this is by using real-world examples. For instance, when teaching multiplication, you could use examples of how many items are in a grocery store or how many passengers are on a plane. This will help students to see how the concepts they are learning apply to the world around them.

Another way to make math more interesting is by using games and activities. This can help students to learn the material in a fun and engaging way. Additionally, it can help them to develop problem-solving skills. Some games that can be used for this purpose include Jeopardy, bingo, and scavenger hunts.

Finally, it is important to keep in mind that every student learns differently.

I’m a homeschool mom also, trying to find a new curriculum. Everyone else commenting seems to be a teacher in school. I’m wondering how this works out for you at home, if it’s enough to use on its own or if it’s more of a supplement? Thank you!

Hi Leah, You can absolutely use it for homeschool. But it's more supplemental, yes. So when you click "subscribe" on this page, you will get emails with a bunch of materials as well as all different kinds of tips and strategies. Almost all of it can be used at home. :) If you have any other questions, just let me know. Thanks,
Brigid
