End of the Year Math Activities

The last days and weeks of school are always the hardest. The kids are done and we’re tired– a terrible combination. Over the years, I found increasing the rigor during this time keeps my students busy and keeps me from running out screaming. In this post, I share five of my tried-and-true end of the year math activities for keeping students engaged at the end of the school.

Me: “We’re finished with the math lesson. You have about 20 minutes before specials. Once you complete your assignment, you can have free time. ” 

Student: “We can do anything we want?”

Me: “Yes, as long as no one gets hurt and you don’t break any laws or school rules.” 😁

This is me after we finish the state test in May. It’s my reward to myself after the late nights planning and teaching content at warp speed all year. 

I’m sure you’re reading this with shock on your face thinking you could never let your students do whatever they want to do and get away with it.

I hear you.

But, we all know teaching during the last weeks of the year is hard— really hard.

However, with a little planning and creativity, the craziest weeks of the year can become the most engaging. 

How to Survive May

In my own classroom, I plan a different critical thinking challenge for each day of the week. The students then spend most of their math time exploring the tasks, devising a plan to solve them, and then finding the solution. We also spend time reviewing content that would be most helpful for the next grade level, usually fraction, decimal, and whole number operations.  

Those are some of the strategies I use to keep students engaged. Keep reading for more of my tried and true end-of-the-year math activities to keep students engaged during the last days of school.

End of the Year Math Activities

Activity 1: Year-in-Review Products

This activity is super fun and requires almost no prep work! It also takes several days to complete, so if you need some time to complete your end-of-the-year checklist, this is a great independent task for students. 😊

To complete the year-in-review, students create a game or activity to review one of the skills learned during the school year. Board games are simple to create and play, but there are other product ideas. See the list below for some examples of student-created and student-tested games.  

  • I Have, Who Has? Activity
  • Crossword Puzzle (I use the Criss-cross puzzle maker at Discovery Education’s Puzzle Maker website.)
  • Card Game
  • Tic-Tac-Toe Board
  • Problems or tasks on 6-sided cubes
  • Dice Games

Each product should include an answer key and a set of detailed directions. Then, after all of the games and activities are complete, allow time for students to play each other’s games or complete the activities. This is the most valuable part of the activity because students LOVE sharing and playing each other’s games!

Technology Tip

Want to incorporate technology into your end-of-the-year math activities? Search the web for a Jeopardy template and allow students to create a Jeopardy game for one topic or skill. After students complete the game, arrange a time for small groups of students to play each of the Jeopardy games.

It’s no secret I am a lover of math menus and have used them successfully for many years. One of the best things about using a menu at this time of year is students can complete them without much assistance. Creating the menu does take some time, but it can be used for days or even weeks once it’s complete.

Here’s how I create a menu:

  1. Decide on a topic. I then match the topic to a menu type. For topics that include several skills, such as whole number, fraction, and decimal operations, I use a more involved menu like a gameshow board or list menu. (Read more about menu types here.)
  2. I use product ideas, as well as materials and resources we used during the unit of instruction to fill the board. I’m strategic about what I place where. I want each student to have to demonstrate their knowledge with a variety of tasks, including practice and review, product creation, and critical thinking and problem-solving. Read more about product creation here.
  3. I also offer an opportunity for students to submit their own product creation ideas. Students love this because it provides an additional layer of differentiation and creativity.
  4. I create instruction sheets for all of the products. I also compile all necessary materials in a central location so students have access to any materials they need.
  5. After I create the menu, I review it with the students and allow them to ask questions before setting them loose to work on their own.

Activity 3: Weight Logic

This is one of my favorite challenges! Logic puzzles help students develop solid critical thinking and problem-solving skills. To complete the weight logic puzzles, students use the sum of the symbols shown on the scale to determine the value of each symbol. 

For many students, this task seems simple. You guess and check the values until you find a combination that works. But that level of thinking is just the beginning. The real thinking comes in when students use strategies, other than guess and check, to determine the value of each fruit.

For example, if we look at the puzzle above, when students recognize the watermelon and two strawberries on the left side are included in the two pieces of watermelon and two strawberries on the right side, they can subtract the 10 on the left from the 12 on the right to see the leftover watermelon slice has a value of 2. Once they know that, they can determine the value of the strawberry. How’s that for fostering algebraic thinking in elementary school!

It will take time for students to arrive at the solutions. Once they’ve mastered the guess and check strategy, encourage them to look for other ways to solve the problem. And, be sure to have students share their solution strategies with other classmates as well.

Activity 4: Boggle Math

The next activity is called Moggle—similar to the traditional Boggle game except students create number sentences instead of words. What I love about this activity is it can be used for several days because students keep challenging themselves to find new combinations of numbers that will create a number sentence.

This activity is a great way to differentiate for students because the length of the number sentences they create is based on their individual ability and understanding of the task. This activity can also be transformed into a whole-class game where teams of students compete to create number sentences and then earn points based on the length of the sentence.

Activity 5: Problem Solving Challenges

If you’ve been a reader of this blog for any length of time, you know I love problem-solving! Specifically, I want to focus on non-routine problem-solving challenges. These are my favorite types of problems to use in the classroom; however, they do require more time to allow students to understand and then solve them. 

Non-routine problems are ones that cannot be solved by adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing to find the answer. They require students to develop and execute a plan of action and can often have more than one solution.

My Problem Solving Process

I love to find a really good one—one which will take some time to complete and one where the solution is not easily determined. Then, I divide students into small groups of 2 – 3 (more than three students in a group creates opportunities for disengagement). 

I give each group a problem-solving challenge, a tub of markers, and a piece of large paper, like construction paper or an old textbook cover. Once students have their materials, they read the problem, determine a solution strategy, and create a poster to illustrate the answer.

After all of the groups have completed the task, I have each group display their poster and do a gallery walk to review how other groups solved the problem. Once the students have viewed the posters, we come back together as a whole group and I use math talk to discuss the problem. 

Here are some of the questions I ask during math talk:

  • How can you decide if an answer is reasonable or not? What would be an example of an answer which is too high? Too low?
  • What’s the most effective strategy? Why?
  • What’s the most efficient strategy? Why?
  • What if a group thought about it this way ________________________ (provide an erroneous solution strategy)? How could you help them get on the right path?

I’m Ready to Save My Sanity!

Keeping students engaged during the last few days and weeks of the school year is the key to reducing discipline problems and retaining our sanity. It may even prevent us from wanting to count down the days. Well, not really, but you understand what I mean. If you’re looking for new ideas, give these end-of-the-year math activities a try for a smooth, engaging, and fun end to the school year.

Sound Off!

How do you survive the last weeks of school?

Educator. Now, guys, I'll introduce you to another guest. Try it, guess who it is?

"This boy is short

Dreamer and braggart.

He takes on a lot,

But he doesn’t really succeed in anything.” (Dunno)

Enter Dunno.

Dunno. Here I am! Hello guys! Finally I came to your kindergarten! And in my flower city there is also a kindergarten, but I don’t go there.

Educator. And why?

Dunno. I love to run, jump, play, make noise, scream, sing loudly, and there are shorties - little ones not only play when they want, but also clean up toys together, learn to draw, read, count, guess riddles, but I don’t do any of that I know how to do it, because for this you need to learn, share, help each other, and this is such a boredom ... I already know everything myself, and I can go to school alone at any time ... but no one takes me there .... (ends sadly)

Caretaker. But the guys and I love to study together and learn something new. Do you want them to teach you too?

Dunno. Well, okay, I'll try...

Educator. Dunno, come in and sit down with our guys. Today we will travel along the rainbow, and rainbow bunnies will help us. Where do you think they live? (Children's answers)

Q. That's right, they live on a rainbow. - What is a rainbow? (A rainbow is a natural phenomenon, it can be seen in the sky, after rain and in bright sunshine).

Q. Please tell me which phrase helps me remember the sequence of colors in the rainbow?

Children. The sequence of colors of the rainbow helps to remember the phrase: "Every Hunter Wants to Know Where the Pheasant Sits."

Q. As you rightly said, the rainbow appears after the rain, here we are, before the first rainbow bunny appears, it rained and there were droplets. On the board are droplets with numbers 1-20. The guys with the teacher and Dunno consider direct and reverse counting. Then a game is played, “Which droplet dried up faster?”: while the guys close their eyes, the teacher removes 2 numbers - the children guess which number is gone. Additionally, the children name the neighbors of the missing figure.

A red rainbow bunny appears (the teacher hangs it on the board)

The teacher. Bunny, what color did it appear?

Children. Of red color.

Educator. The red bunny has prepared a very interesting task for you. Take a sheet of paper and a simple pencil. The beginning of our drawing is marked with a dot. Listen carefully and follow orders.

Used. "Graphic dictation". 10 cells up, 15 cells to the right, 10 cells down, 15 cells to the left.

Caretaker. What is the geometric figure? (Rectangle)

Draw a red square in the upper right corner of the rectangle, a green square in the upper left corner, an orange oval in the lower right corner, a blue pentagon in the lower left corner, and a yellow diamond in the middle.

Educator. Guys, what is the difference between the figures? (Shape, color)

Well done with the task.

Remind me what color you get when you mix red and yellow? That's right, orange. And we are already in a hurry, what bunny? (An orange rainbow bunny is hung next to a red one).

The orange bunny is very mischievous and loves to play with the ball. He brought the ball to us. The teacher conducts an intellectual warm-up with the ball.

Smart warm-up

  • How many days are there in a week?
  • What day of the week is it today? Name Monday's neighbors.
  • Name the first, third, last day of the week.
  • What season is it now? What season will come after?
  • How many months are there in a year?
  • How many seasons are there? Name them.
  • How many months are there in each season?
  • Into how many parts is a day divided?
  • What time of day do we have dinner?
  • When do we sleep? Are we charging?
  • Dad is tall, and you?
  • The road is wide, but the path?
  • A fox has a long tail, but a hare?
  • Oak has a thick trunk, but birch?

Educator. Well done and you have done this job well. Guys, having guessed the riddle, you can say what color the rainbow bunny will come to us next.

Drops of the sun early in the morning

Appeared in a clearing

This is in a yellow sarafan

Dressed up… dandelion.

Born from an egg,

Appeared in a fur coat.

At the yellow lump (chicken)

Do you have an answer,
What color is the sun?

Children's answers about what color the rainbow bunny will be next.

A Yellow Bunny appears

Educator: “The Yellow Bunny has prepared fun tasks for you.

  1. 4 birds are sitting on a tree: 2 sparrows and other crows. How many crows?
  2. Dasha's grandmother has a granddaughter Masha, cat Fluff, dog Druzhok. How many grandchildren does the grandmother have? (One granddaughter Masha).
  3. 2 canaries and 5 fish live in a living corner of the kindergarten. How many animals are in the corner?
  4. 5 apples and 3 pears hung on an apple tree. How many fruits were on the apple tree?
  5. How much honey will two butterflies collect if they each have one bucket?

Educator: “Maybe you have already guessed what color the rainbow bunny will come to us now? That's right, it's a Green Bunny. And he invites us all to move.

Physical education minute

Hello rainbow-arc, (Children perform a tilt)

Colorful bridge! (Draw an arc in the air)

Hello rainbow-arc, (Children tilt)

Welcome us. (They walk in a circle, holding hands)

We run along the rainbow (Run in a circle one after another)

we run barefoot.

Through the rainbow-arc . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (They run in a circle one after another)

Educator. Guys, while you were playing with the Green Bunny, did another rainbow bunny appear? See what color is it?

Children. Blue.

Educator. He is very serious and wants to see how you can write and solve problems.

There is an illustration on the board, according to which you need to come up with a problem.

Educator. Guys, let's remember what parts the task consists of? (Condition, question, solution, answer) Think of a problem based on the picture.

Children make up a problem. Spread the solution on the table, Dunno writes the solution on the board.

Educator. Dunno, you see, our children helped you, and you yourself solved the problem. Well done! Tell me, what is the next rainbow bunny to appear? Correctly. Meet the Blue Rainbow Bunny. Together with him, we will go to the city where the numbers live. But not all of them are at home now. I suggest you return all the numbers to the houses. Take the digital houses and complete this task. The children are doing a task on the composition of the number. Guests pass and observe the execution.

Guys, there are flowers in the green meadow with examples. You need to take a flower, solve an example and put it in a vase with an answer.

Children are doing a task.

Educator. Well done guys did a great job. And here is the next guest, the Purple Bunny appears. He suggests playing with counting sticks.

Game task with counting sticks.

  1. Build a shape that has 3 angles and 3 sides (triangle)
  2. Build a shape that has all sides equal (square)
  3. Build a figure that has 2 long sides and 2 short sides (rectangle)
  4. Build a figure that has 2 acute and 2 obtuse angles (rhombus)
  5. Build a figure that has 5 angles and 5 sides (pentagon)

Educator. Guys, you did a great job with all the tasks. All well done! Well Dunno, did you like studying with the guys?

Dunno. Wow, it turns out to be very interesting to study, especially when there are such helpers as rainbow bunnies, oh, only I'm a little confused, what did we do today? Guys, tell me so that I can remember better and tell my shorties?

Educator. Guys, let's help Dunno remember what we did? (children list).

Educator. And most importantly, Dunno, we know one secret, we will share with you now ...

We miss each other without a friend,
We play together with joy.
And we don't need to quarrel.
After all, the strongest thing is ... (friendship)

Look at what our rainbow bunnies have turned into. On the board, all the bunnies make up the word "friendship". After all, we are all one big team of friends, like rainbow bunnies.

Dunno. Well, now I remember everything. Thank you guys, I'll run to my sunny city, tell everyone how interesting it is for you here. Goodbye guys, see you soon!

Educator. Well done guys, answered all the questions! Friendship is what helps to cope with any trouble or problem. Today you all helped Dunno together, and now he will go to his kindergarten and tell that he has learned a lot of new and interesting things and he will have many friends! We thank our guests for their support and participation.
