2016 New Year Number of the Day
A great math activity to start the 2016 New Year is to make 2016 the Number of the Day.
I did this last year and it worked a treat! So of course I had to share it this year!
You can make your own and select the skills that suit the abilities of your kids
or you can use the ready made posters or worksheets that I have created for the new 2016 year.
2016 New Year Number of the Day Sheets and Posters
I have created 2 versions of the 2016 Number of the Day - a basic version and a more complex advanced version.
Each is in black and white to be used as a worksheet and also color which can be used as a poster or projected onto your smartboard.
I know that you will want to use these again next year so I have added versions for 2017-2020 and also a blank version so that you can add any year that you like!
These are available from my Teachers Pay Teachers Store at
New Year Dice Game
My favorite math games are ones that are really simple to prepare, simple to learn and simple to play.
This game is ideal for the New Year and can be set up in a second! :)
To play the 2016 dice game you will need to write 20 and 16 twice on a sheet of paper like the one below.
There are 2 versions of the game.
Basic game - Players take turns to roll 5 dice and add the numbers. If they add to 20, the player covers 20 or crosses it out. If they add to 16, the player covers or crosses out 16. The first player to cover both is the winner.
Advanced game - If you really want them to think, then have each player roll 3 dice. They then have to create an equation using the 3 dice to make 20 or 16. For example, if a player rolls 1, 3 and 4, they could make (1+3)x4 to make 16. They then cover or cross out the 16. First player to cover both 20 and 16 is the winner.
So simple but great math practice! :)

Thanks for posting such an innovative and motivating post in the new year because, most of the students will wish to god that they should get pass in the examination in which they are very weak. On average, if we look over means, we can know that most of the students are weak in maths subject in common. Because of this thought, most of the students are approaching the online research writing assistance to get their writing works to be completed. But, after they are not at all go through those documents and try to enlarge their knowledge. So, at least hereafter they should be aware in this and try to become an expert in maths subject.
