SUMMER CURRICULUM GRADES K to 5
Robust teaching support. Flexible implementation.
MathCamp lessons center around a consistent framework, providing teaching support at point-of-use. Instruction focuses on reinforcing key math skills with daily opportunities to explore, strategize, problem solve, create, demonstrate, and celebrate. Each lesson is organized around the following unique framework designed to support
educators and make it easy to teach MathCamp from day one! ⊲ Opening Campfire: Campers gather and the leader sets the purpose for the day’s lesson. ⊲ Flash Math: A quick whole-group fluency activity. ⊲ Math Power: The central math lesson is shaped by a four-part framework: Introduce, Inspire, Investigate, and Integrate. ⊲ Bunk Time: Campers work independently as leader circulates, conferring and checking in. ⊲ Bring the Strength to Life: Campers creatively and collaboratively explore the day’s strength. ⊲ Community Math: Whole-group game that supports the featured math skill. ⊲ Closing Campfire: Campers regroup to review and reflect on the day’s lesson.
BUNK TIME 20 MIN
Distribute Bunk Time Worksheet 3 to campers. Give campers a moment to stretch or move before settling down to work on their own. Read aloud the directions for the problems and check for understanding. Circulate as campers work, conferring with individuals or small groups as needed.
RANGE OF LEARNERS Increase Access: Encourage campers to circle the numbers in each problem and remind them to add the blocks together to find a total. Increase Challenge: Challenge campers to write a number sentence to show how they added with the base-ten blocks.
MATH POWER: Compose Once to Add 40 MIN
Introduce In this lesson, campers will make a 10 to add within 200 using one composition. Distribute Math Power Worksheets 1 and 2 and base-ten blocks to campers. Campers, there are places where you can go to pick your own fruit, like berries or apples. Sometimes the fruit is displayed in big baskets or boxes at a stand along the road. Invite campers to share with a partner an experience they may have had at a farm or farm stand where they picked fruit or saw boxes and baskets of fruits. Then continue. Some places let you pick your own fruit—like apples—right off of the trees. Let’s imagine that we’re going to a farm to pick apples! Inspire
BRING THE STRENGTH TO LIFE 10 MIN
Read aloud a selection from the Math Hero Reader and have campers follow along, or invite campers to choose a Math Hero from their readers and read on their own. Encourage campers to notice and wonder what makes someone a Math Hero. Campers, are you inspired by the Math Heroes? Explore one of these ideas or one of your own. Then let your creativity flow and express yourself. • Think about a Math Hero who demonstrates one or more of the 7 Strengths. Then imagine that hero with one of the Strengths as a superpower! Draw or write a scene where the Math Hero comes to the rescue. • Imagine changing places with a Math Hero for a day. Draw, write, or act out what your day might be like as the hero. What might the hero’s day be like as a Math Camper? • Share a story about a Math Hero in your own life. Tell, draw, write, or act it out. • Work with partners to create and perform a brief skit about a Math Hero. Consider questions like: What challenges did the Math Hero face? What discoveries did the Math Hero make? How might the 7 Strengths help Math Heroes solve problems? Standards Math Practice Lesson Objectives • Add within 200 • Compose a ten to add 2.NBT.7, ELD-MA.2-3.E.E MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically.
Look at the illustrations of baskets of apples on Worksheet 1. Some are labeled red and some are labeled green. What do you notice about the apples? What do you wonder? Give campers a few moments to think to themselves. Then, have them turn and share what they notice and wonder with a partner. Validate when you notice campers demonstrating kindness by acknowledging what their partner says or patiently waiting for their turn to talk.
MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS Ask questions to prepare campers for the investigation, such as: What do you notice about the numbers 104 and 18? How many ones, tens, and hundreds are in each? How can we compose the total? LESSON 8

Campers will practice kindness by being thoughtful and caring toward others. They will be conscious of
MATERIALS FOR THE DAY
Download and Print • L8 Math Camper Resources • L8 Community Math Resources
Classroom Materials • base-ten blocks (hundreds flats, tens rods, and unit cubes) • place-value mats
If campers do not mention adding to find a total, ask these guiding questions to spark their thinking: What are some questions we could ask about the number of apples? Will the total be more or less than 100? Explain.
the impact they make when they are kind to someone, and they will feel the power of kindness when they receive it from others.
Explain that in this activity campers will find the total number of red and green apples. Encourage campers to use the words compose , place value , and regroup in their discussions. Investigate
Let’s explore a math skill together! We can use place value and base-ten blocks to add. Place value is the value of each digit in a number. For example, the place value of 5 in 150 represents 5 tens, or 50. Look at Problem 1 on Worksheet 1. We want to answer the question: How many apples did the campers pick in all? What do the words “in all” mean? How can we find the number “in all?” Listen for synonyms for “in all” as campers discuss. Ask guiding questions to help students arrive at the conclusion that “in all” means total , and a total can be found by adding. Campers, look again at the apples. There are 104 red apples and 18 green apples.
RANGE OF LEARNERS Increase Access: Encourage campers to use two place value mats and model each number separately before putting them together, one place at a time, starting with the ones. Increase Challenge: For additional challenge, have campers make up their own story problem and solve it using base-ten blocks.
OPENING CAMPFIRE 15 MIN
72 | MathCamp Leader’s Guide Greet your campers by name. Have them put away their personal items and gather in a common area. Lead campers in a round of the “MathCamp Heroes” cheer. Campers, today we are going explore adding numbers by adding ones and tens. Turn and share with a partner an example of a time that you added a one or a ten to something.
Invite one or two campers to share their ideas. We’re also going to practice kindness today.
When we are kind, we help others and we say and do things that make others feel good. Turn and share with a partner something that you can do to be kind in MathCamp today. Ask one or two campers to share, or, if time allows, have everyone share something they can do that would be kind.
WORDS OF THE DAY Review and add these words to your vocabulary wall. Encourage campers to use them in their discussions. NEW REVIEW
MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS Have campers think about what compose means to them. Monitor for inappropriate perceptions and correct as needed. (For example: componer means “to fix” in Spanish). Read the definition out loud and ask campers to act it out.
70 | MathCamp Leader’s Guide
place value: the value of the position of a digit in a number regroup: to make a group of 10
base-ten blocks: blocks that are used to represent the value of each place in a number compose: to put together parts to make a whole
FLASH MATH 5 MIN Start the day with a quick fluency routine to warm up campers’ math thinking. These engaging and fun activities support campers’ number sense and fluency, building competence and confidence! You’ll find the routines and instructions for how to do them in the back of this Leader’s Guide.
Lesson 8 Unit: Kindness | 69
Measure student progress Digital numeracy assessments can be administered at the start and end of camp. Formative assessments allow for daily comprehension checks and progress monitoring.
Making real-world connections Math Hero Readers show campers how math can be used in real life by spotlighting people who use math to make the world a better place.
