Ice Cream Addition and Subtraction – Who doesn’t love ice cream? This Ice Cream Math pack is engaging, colourful, and full of addition ideas. Use this Ice Cream Shop to create your ice creams and work out the cost for each one.
• It is your choice if you show your students how to record dollars and cents.
• My extension students do, but my other students do not.
• Use bundling sticks or Base 10 blocks to work out the cost.
• Check on a calculator – they love doing this.
