Dancing Digits
Grades 2/3
Fluency-adding & subtracting

There's no greater joy than watching students laugh as they work together to solve math problems and demonstrate place value with their bodies – in fact, it’s so fun, that they often forget they’re doing math! Through playful activities, students will explore digits along with the dance elements' shapes and levels. They’ll solve addition and subtraction problems using their bodies, demonstrating the solution and noting a number line, and place value.

Lesson 1

Number line – least to greatest

Lesson 2

Fluency- adding and subtracting 2- and 3-digit numbers

Lesson 3

Place Value​

Lessons can be scheduled individually or as a package

2 & 3D Shapes

Students explore the dance elements  size and shape, demonstrating the following math concepts through movement:

  • Equivalent fractions

  • Differentiating greater or less than

  • The correlation between fractions and decimals

Lesson 1
