Curated OER
Claire Damarodas
Fifth graders examine how sugars may be listed as an ingredient in various ways. E.g. Many of the words end in -ose (ex. Sucrose, dextrose, maltose)

Perplexing Perimeters
In the process of constructing their own "rulers" Students develop a sense of the size of a centimeter and meter. Students select the appropriate "ruler" for the tasks. Finally, 3rd graders calculate the perimeter of objects using...

Commutative, Associative, and Distributive Properties
Young scholars explore the concept of the associative, commutative, and distributive properties. In the associative, commutative, and distributive properties lesson, students discuss real world examples of each property. Young scholars...
Curated OER
Finding Addition Patterns
Students practice finding the sums of two-one digit numbers. In this addition lesson plan, students also record facts onto an addition chart.
Curated OER
Playing With Probability
Learners rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.
Curated OER
Coin Drop
Students calculate the theoretical and empirical probability by dropping coins on a grid. They record their data and compare the theoretical and empirical data. Students make predictions about the results before conducting the experiment.
Curated OER
Irregular Fractals
Students study and research irregular fractals and construct a few based on their research. Students practice pattern recognition skills and plane geometry skills calculating dimensions on the Fractured Pictures activity.
