Eureka Math Templates and Online Resources

The Eureka Math program provides the BEST template materials for lesson resources. 

​Many of the templates are very easy to copy or print and provide for your students.  The templates can be used to model whole class lessons, provided for students to use in partners, or for students to use during their independent work.
 
The templates can also be provided for students to use in center based activities outside of your daily math time block.  I like to provide templates from previously learned skills for reinforcement and review.

Where to Find Math Templates
 
One of the most effective resources we have in the Eureka Math program is the Teacher Edition book for each Module.  Within each of these books, you will find the lesson in great detail and steps, the Student Fluency Practice pages, the Student Problem Set pages, and the Homework pages.  Within each lesson you will also find the Lesson Templates.  When you prepare for each lesson, copy these templates and either place them in a sheet protector to use with a dry erase marker, or make a copy for each student to cut.
 
These templates provide students a manipulative or a concrete visual of the lesson content for them to practice with.  Many times, it is really effective to model the templates with your students during the whole group lesson.  Then provide them their own for independent practice. 
 

Most Commonly Used Templates
 
Some templates you will find are more frequently used than others.  Therefore, knowing which templates will be used again in advance can help you decide which templates to keep for future lessons.  The templates are also a great way to differentiate within your own class.  At times, some students will become independent with a concept quicker than others.  They may gradually move passed using the templates whereas others may continue to need the support longer. 
 
After a lesson when you introduce and practice with a particular template, you may want to create a bin to save them in.  You can either laminate or use a sheet protector to make them reusable.
 

• Hide the Zero Cards- These are used for place value.  You fold and extend to show a number by digits or by value.

 

• Ten Frames- These provide students a visual of ten squares and an amount of circles showing the other part of ten.

  

• Base Ten Chart- This chart gives students place value spots to fill in the amount of ones, tens, hundreds, etc.

 

• Digit Cards- These are number cards and can be used to manipulate the value of a number or for problem solving.

 

• Number Bond- This is three circles connected by lines to represent part-part-total.

 

• Greater Than, Equal To, Less Than Cards- These are the symbols representing greater than, less than, or equal to when comparing two numbers.

 

• Number Line- This helps students see number placement and can be used in a variety of lessons from place value to fractions to elapsed time.

 

• Subtraction Fluency Sets- Fact fluency cards provide great visuals for recurring subtraction practice.

 

• Addition Fluency Sets- Fact Fluency cards provide great visuals for recurring addition practice.

 

• Grid Paper- These can be used to find area, perimeter, and for graphing.

 

• Inches and Centimeter Rulers- Students can continuously use these templates for measuring objects in inches and centimeters.

 

How do I Find These Templates Digitally?
 
All of the lesson templates can be found digitally as well on the Engage NY Math website. 

You can download them and create slides for students who may be working virtually. 

​For example, if you are looking for the Lesson Templates for Grade 2 Module 1, go to: https://www.engageny.org/resource/grade-2-mathematics-module-1. 

Once you get into the site, you can jump around to find the grade, module, and lesson you are working in.  You can download the entire module or just one lesson at a time in digital form.
 
Use these templates continuously throughout the modules.  Students will love to become independent in using them.  It will also help them be familiar with recurring templates throughout the next levels they move on to.
