EXPRESSION CARD
expressions · writing and evaluating numerical expressions
To write and evaluate numerical expressions [5.OA.A.1][5.OA.A.2].
EXPRESSION CARD is a Grade 5 partner game for writing and evaluating numerical expressions. Each turn combines a number card with an operation card that describes how the numbers should be used. Students first translate the wording into an expression, then evaluate it, connecting mathematical language to symbols and computation in the same task.
Use it when students need practice moving between verbal operation phrases and numerical expressions. Because partners check both the expression and the final value, the game makes it easy to spot whether a mistake came from translation or calculation.
