Math Activities for ELL/ESL Students

Teaching Strategies in Math for ELL/ESL Students The integration of the English language within math content is essential for assisting ESL students to develop a good understanding of mathematics.

1. Teach mathematical vocabulary and language structures daily. 2. Post math vocabulary cards around the classroom on completed problems, number

lines, rulers, fraction diagrams, and other objects. 3. Model the problem solving process by talking aloud while solving problems on the

overhead, chalkboard, or interactive white board to demonstrate thinking processes. 4. Use math Cloze exercises or sentence prompts for students to copy and complete when

they enter class or during reviews. 5. Give students a computation problem to solve and then have them write the steps they

used to solve it in complete English sentences. 6. Design multi-sensory lessons that address various student learning styles, i.e., visual,

auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic. 7. Use visuals whenever possible to reinforce auditory instruction, i.e., charts, graphs,

manipulatives, diagrams, models, real objects. 8. Provide explicit instructions and practice with reading and writing word problems. Teach

students to identify key words for solving word problems and identifying mathematical operations.

9. Use graphic organizers to visually represent mathematical concepts. 10. Simplify the language used rather than the mathematical concepts taught by using

known vocabulary and simple sentence constructions. 11. When ESL students speak, focus on their message rather than their grammatical skills

and accuracy. Respond using the proper grammatical form rather than overtly correcting their mistakes.

12. Integrate reading and writing about math through the use of journals, learning logs, and literature.

13. Give ESL students alternate ways to participate in whole-class discussions and respond to questions, i.e., think/pair/share, flashcards to raise over head, hand and/or body movements, individual chalkboards for solving computations.

14. Integrate hands-on activities by using manipulatives, real life materials, and calculators. 15. Integrate educational technology tools, i.e., Web 2.0 online tools, interactive math

websites, and interactive computer games. 16. Teach math note-taking skills, because copying notes is an effective way for learning

English writing conventions. 17. Review mathematical vocabulary and concepts using math games, examples include Tic-

Tac-Toe, bingo, and concentration.

Recipe for Four - Breaded Steak for One

What would the recipe look like if you were only making enough breaded steak to serve one?

Please write the correct measurement conversions and translation on the lines below.

This bachelor has to convert a recipe his mother gave him for breaded steaks recipe that serves four to a

recipe that will serve one. Usually a bachelor fridge just has a few half-empty jars of condiments, a flat 2-

liter Coke and some old pizza in it, but you need a big fridge for beer parties. A bachelor’s cooking utensils

are also limited. There are no tablespoons and measuring cups in this house. Teaspoons and shot glasses

have to be used as substitutes.

Breaded Steak recipe (Bistec Empanizado) - serves 4 Conversions (changes)

4 steaks (1/4 inch thick)

1/2 cup onion, chopped

1 tbsp fresh garlic, minced

1/4 cup sour orange juice

1/4 tsp salt

4 eggs, beaten well

1 cup finely ground crackers, salt to taste

1/2 onion, sliced into rings

Olive oil

Sprinkle steaks with chopped onion, garlic, orange juice and salt. Rub garlic into meat. Marinate for a few hours in the refrigerator. Brush off the onion pieces and dip each steak into the egg to make sure it’s fully coated. Dip the steak into the crackers, making sure that the ground crackers completely cover the steak. Fry the steaks in cooking oil on medium heat until golden brown and well done. Serve with a few onion rings.

1 US tablespoon = 3 US teaspoons

One shot = one ounce

One cup = eight ounces

Shopping (clothes, shoes, and accessories)

Read the word problems carefully. Work through and answer

questions below.

1. Marian took her two sons back-to-school shopping in August.

They went to the Mall of America in Bloomington, MN.

Minnesota does not charge sales tax on clothing. First, Marian

bought shoes for her children. One pair of shoes cost $29.99 and

another pair cost $36.99. Next, she bought two pairs of jeans,

each for $27.99. Finally, she bought each boy three new shirts

(two dress shirts and a T-shirt). The dress shirts cost $14.99 each. The T-shirts cost

$7.99 each. How much did Marian spend on her back-to-school purchases?

2. Alex was looking for a good sale on soccer gloves, but he did not

want to buy poor quality. He was hoping to find gloves that he could

use for at least two outdoor seasons. He visited three different

sporting goods stores. At the first store, he found gloves that he

liked for $26.99, but in a sale box at 20% off. The sale price would

be given at the cash register. At the second store, he found gloves

that he really liked for $45.00, but on sale at 25% off. The sale price

would appear at the cash register. At the third store, he found the same gloves for

$40.99, but on sale at 10% off. Again, the sale price would appear at the cash

register. Alex decided that the gloves at the first store were too cheap and probably

not very good quality. He had to decide if he should buy the gloves at the second or

the third store. The gloves were exactly the same brand, color, and size, but the price

of each pair of gloves was a little different. At which store did Alex probably

purchase his gloves?

How much paint?

The Perez Family on a budget wants to paint two bedrooms in their home. They want to

make sure that they have enough paint to finish the project but not a lot leftover because

they are trying to keep cost low. The two rooms are identical in size, so we really only need

to calculate the area to be painted in one room and multiply it by two. Calculating the

amount of paint you’ll need for any project is simply a matter of coming up with the square

footage to be covered. Below are some illustrations to help with visualization and

calculations. The floor plan has the dimensions for each numbered wall and ceiling. Use

the spaces below to record measurements and solution. Remember for painting you should

round to the nearest foot. To make sure you have enough paint do not subtract any square

footage for windows and doors unless they significantly reduce the square footage of that

wall. One gallon of paint generally covers about 400 square feet. The area formula below

will be helpful.

Formula: Area = Length x Width Width

How much carpet?

Tammy and Mike want to carpet their living and dining room area. They want to

come up with a quick estimate to make sure they could afford the project. They also

want to make sure that they have enough carpet to finish the project. Getting a

rough idea of how much carpet you will need for a project is pretty simple, but a

precise figure is a little more difficult to come by. Calculating the amount of carpet

you’ll need and what it costs means coming up with the square footage and

multiplying this measurement by the price per square yard. The price of carpet is

usually expressed in square yards.

A yard is 3 feet so a square yard equals 3 feet by 3 feet or 9 square feet.

Find the area in square footage for the Living/Dining room. After converting to

square yards, calculate how much the carpeting will cost. One square yard of

carpeting is equal to $9.99. Below are some illustrations to help with visualization

and calculations. The floor plan has the dimensions needed to calculate the square

footage of the area to carpet. Use the spaces below to record measurements and

solution. You should round up to the nearest foot. The area formula below will be

How many tiles?

John wants to completely tile all the walls of his master bathroom. He wants to make sure

that he has enough tiles to finish the project with only a few extra tiles for mistakes and

replacement. Calculating the amount of tiles you’ll need for any project is simply a matter

of coming up with the square footage to be covered and the size of the individual tile.

Below are some illustrations to help with visualization and calculations. The floor plan has

the dimensions needed to calculate the square footage of the walls. Use the spaces below to

record measurements and solution. Remember for tiling you want to over-estimate so you

have a few tiles extra. You should round up to the nearest foot. To make sure you don’t

buy too many tiles subtract any square footage for windows and doors. The area formula

below will be helpful.

Formula: Area = Length x Width Rectangle Width Square Side

How much wallpaper?

The Jasper Family wants to wallpaper their living room. They want to make sure they have

enough paper with the least amount of waste. To estimate the amount of standard

American wallpaper they will need to first add up the lengths of all walls to get the distance

around the room and enter this figure as the perimeter of the room. Round off to the

nearest foot. Next, enter the number of single doors (about 20 square feet), the number of

double doors (about 40 square feet), small windows (10 square feet) and large windows (25

square feet). Also enter the square footage of any other openings or areas not to be

wallpapered -- such as a fireplace.

To make sure you have enough paper with the least amount of waste subtract any square

footage for windows and doors that significantly reduce the square footage of that wall.

Fill in the information below. Use floor plan below for measurements for calculations.

Note the size of the roll of the paper you're using in square feet. A standard American roll

of wallpaper gives you about 35 square feet.

Egyptian Multiplication

Egyptians used a hieroglyphic system for numbers in which each character was a picture of an

object which in turn represented a number. Numbers are written

by using the symbols additively, starting with the smallest numbers on the left and moving

toward the largest on the right.

The Egyptian number system used these symbols:
