In the Classroom
Add Sembl to your teacher's toolbox of activities to support math instruction. Most tasks include links to extended directions and additional enhancements to extend student learning. Share activities on this site with parents to practice math skills at home with their child. Use Free Online Screen Recorder, reviewed here to create a short tutorial on completing the task and sharing it with parents. Extend student learning by recreating tasks using student examples or data. For example, the 3-act math problem Lil' Sister asks students to compare the heights of sisters, recreate this activity using two students, and share on a simple website created using a simple one-page website maker such as Caard, reviewed here. Many activities share links to Google Slides, reviewed here, after opening the slides, choose to copy the file and change information to create a new activity that includes different data. Choose tasks found on Sembl to use during math station rotations, math family nights, or as homework activities.
