This is a great review lesson for fractions and should take your students 35-60 minutes, depending on their ability. Students will “visit” six cities during the race: Honolulu, HI; Seattle, WA; Boundary Waters, MN; Clearwater, FL; Wisconsin Dells, WI; and Lake Tahoe, CA.
In each city, students will complete a series of math problems and a physical task. Once they complete the math problems students will check in with the teacher to check for accuracy. If they are correct, they may complete the task and move onto the next city. After all six cities are complete, students complete The Amazing Math Race by taking two (very careful) laps around the classroom. This activity is set up to review the concepts but to also get the kids moving.
This lesson is best for 4th grade but can be used as an extension activity for 3rd grade and remediation for 5th grade.

Because I’ve done one in the past, my students were exacted that I had another one (but on a different topic). This really helps students review concepts and the movement it great. They can’t wait to do another one when we prepare for assessments.

Want to get your students excited about reviewing for tests or quizzes? If so, buy all of her Amazing Race math packets! Every time we are getting ready for a test, my students beg me to pull out an mazing race activity. They are always provide a successful, energetic, and active review period.

My students really enjoy working in pairs and going to the different parts of the room to see what activity is next for review. I use this resource as a review before the test and get students up and moving. I enjoy this resource very much for the students.
