How to use these mental math task cards:

You can use these task cards in a variety of ways. They have been designed to be read orally to the class or small group, giving students a small amount of time between each subsequent direction. I usually have my students privately write their answer on a whiteboard. Then I give them a signal when they can flash their answer to me before I confirm. You can also use these with partners, small groups, or one on one. 

The numbers used in the task cards have been specifically designed for mental math computations. Each set gets increasingly more difficult.

These cards are a perfect companion for number talks!
