Math Study Tips You Won't Forget -  Math courses are not like other courses. To pass most other subjects, a student must read, understand, and recall the subject matter. However, to pass math, an extra step is required: a student must use the information they have learned to solve math problems correctly. Special math study skills are needed to help the student learn more and to get better grades. This resource lists 20 math study skills intended to help students succeed in math.  Use the resource as a journal topic, as a student guide, or copy it and make it into a poster.

Number Tiles - Problem Solving Math Activities for Grades 5-8 - This seven page resource contains four different math problem solving activities that extend from addition and multiplication, to using the divisibility rules.
