Students created Place Value Snowmen by decorating each snowman part with place value blocks for hundreds, tens, and ones. This activity supported all learners as they were able to choose how many of each block to use on their snowman craft. Then, the students had to analyze their work by identifying the number, place values, word form, and expanded form. Students also solved differentiated word problems that challenged them with varied word types and open ended numbers so that they could choose their own math equations. These math differentiation activities provided meaningful and targeted work for my students!","fullyFundedDate":1762267707156,"projectUrl":"project/creative-differentiation-activities/9865664/","projectTitle":"Creative Differentiation Activities","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cain","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10336229"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_39962","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":327,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":44,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":31,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":53,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"15.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":75.0,"schoolId":39962,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Ellwood Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Ellwood Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/goleta-union-school-district/ellwood-elementary-school/39962"}
