How to Implement a Maths Drill Warm-up
This booklet can serve as an easy maths lesson warm-up and will become a routine exercise that your students become familiar with. It serves as a focusing activity when coming back into class after the playground and allows them to switch into classroom mode.
Follow the suggested implementation below:
- Display a timer on an interactive whiteboard or screen.
- Write the page and round number on the board for students to see.
- Once all students have their maths drill booklets ready, begin the timer and students begin the drill.
- Once a student has completed the round, they note down the time it took them to complete it.
- They then can colour the front page, complete the maze on the current page or quietly read while other students finish the task.
- When all students have finished, have a student read out the answers while the rest mark their work.
- Students mark down how many questions they got correct for the round.
