I have been told by seasoned educators not to "re-invent the wheel" when coming up with ideas for lessons. So true!! Lesson Planet has a wealth of sources and ideas from some of the greatest teaching minds that are out there...what a blessing to have a resource such as Lesson Planet, to turn to. I am even planning to contribute a lesson or two myself. My daughter is in a teacher education program and I have introduced her to the "Planet". We're spreading the news!

Pupils apply problem solving strategies to clarify situations in a table provided and justify logical statements. Everyone describes how to use the distributive property to divide and subtract.
Create models to demonstrate multiplication and division of fractions. Using fraction tiles to model fractions, pupils explore fractions on a ruler and use pattern blocks to multiply and divide. They also create number lines with fractions.
Model multiplication and division of integers for your class. Your learners will use manipulatives to model algorithms. They use quadrant maps, cards, and pictures to explore multiplication and division. Afterward, they journal their findings and use their calculators to check their work. This lesson includes a number of good activities and necessary attachments.
Learners organize and decipher data. In this booster rocket lesson, pupils participate in an experiment to understand why two booster rockets are used for the space shuttle. They record data and analyze their results.
In this rational numbers worksheet, students solve 2 word problems where they use rational numbers. A detailed 5 step problem solving process and an example are provided.
