Maths Warm-Up: Broken Calculator
This is one of those maths warm-ups that looks simple at first, but don't let that fool you because it gets students thinking flexibly, sharing strategies, and proving there's rarely just one way to tackle a maths problem.
Maths Warm-Up: Maths O'clock
If your students enjoy sharing different ways to solve a problem, they'll love this activity. This low-prep maths warm-up turns a simple clock face into a creative challenge that gets everyone thinking.
Maths Warm-Up: Msytery Digits
Some of the best maths conversations happen when there's more than one correct answer. That's exactly why this is one of my favourite maths warm-ups. It's a low floor, high ceiling activity that gets every student thinking, no matter where they're at.
