    There are many ways that you could make 5th grade math fun. You could make games, or buy games (board games, computer games,) or you could make up games on the whiteboard. You could also have contests like who can finish this many problems faster and things like that.

    CANDY

    Believe it or not candy is a good motivator and it doesn't hurt the budget.

    Around the World.

    Start off with one student, on one side of the classroom. Have him or her stand behind the person next to them. Then you ask a math question that they should be able to do (or know, like times tables). Whoever answers the question first and correctly, continues the game. That means, if the first student who went to stand behind the person next to them got the question right, then they stand behind the next person in line (however the desks in your room flow). If that person loses, then they go sit back in their seat and the person who won stands up and moves behind the person sitting next to them.
