Creative problem solving is fun and helps kids conceptualize content. They use grid paper, manilla paper, and markers to cut, draw, and show given double-digit numbers as many ways as they can.

Augment your math curriculum with posters detailing several concepts important to second grade math. Each poster features one math term from geometry, measurement, probability and statistics, computation and estimation, numbers and...

Second graders explore and discuss adding 10 as they predict number patterns with the hundred chart. They work in pairs, groups choose a number, 1-9, and predict what happens if they add 10 to the number. Students make-a-ten strategy...

Students explore the concept of patterning. In this patterns lesson, students use recycled plastic tab closures as well as their problem solving skills to identify and create patterns.

In this early childhood understanding patterns worksheet, students find the pattern in 3 problems and then show each another way. Students also explain how they decided what pattern to make in 1 of the problems.

Students discover patterns in language, math and science. They experience patterns by hearing stories, and becoming pattern detectives.

Students form a repeating pattern using shoe colour (eg., white, brown, white, brown). Without knowing what pattern they are using ask the students to join the line if they think that they could be the 5th member of the pattern. Ask them...

Students listen to story Dinosaurs Dancing, use dinosaur counters to identify, copy, create and extend pattern that is repeated at least three times, and complete web activity.

In this math worksheet students see 10 sets of math patterns. Each pattern is made up of repeating geometric shapes. Students mark the choice which would complete the pattern.

Young scholars use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

In this missing numbers worksheet, students write the missing numbers covered by the starfish in the patterns. Students complete 6 problems total.

An outstanding lesson on music awaits your young composers! They learn about patterns found in music, the different sections of an orchestra, and see the differences between musicians and a composer. Excellent streamed videos and good...

Learners participate in hands-on activities using a hundreds chart and counting toes and fingers. They discover the patterns that are created when counting by ten. After a lecture/demo, students practice by using a worksheet embedded in...

Students practice making patterns with paint and stamps.  In this arts and crafts lesson, students utilize the floor of their classroom to create a giant pattern on the floor using different colored paints and foam stamps....

Students create their own number patterns to reinforce their understanding of the concept of patterns. They also search for the unexpected guests in each other's patterns.

Second graders examine human body movements by measuring the choreography of a dance.  In this physical education lesson, 2nd graders participate in a creative dance which is based on specific movements of each limb, which students...

Young scholars complete a series of lesson plans dealing with numbers, counting, and ordering. In this numbers lesson plan, students identify numbers, identify number patterns, count forwards and backwards, and more.

Five days of lessons develop number sense and counting patterns, including odd and even numbers, 5s and 10s, doubles, and ways to make 10. Each session opens with fun finger play to reinforce counting and reasoning about numbers. Various...

Daily routines not only help to manage classrooms, they can also provide students with rich opportunities for learning. This activity supports young learners in developing their number sense by counting up the school days on a class...

It's time to investigate patterns! First and second graders construct a paper weaving using a hundreds chart, then use the Ti-10 calculator to make patterns such as adding 3 each time. Learners remove multiples of three from the hundreds...

Students explore repeating and growing patterns. In this patterns lesson, students describe patterns, explore changing patterns and match patterns. Students participate in online activities and read books that show patterns in...

Young scholars explore the concept of patterning using musical instruments. In this music lesson, students identify several instruments and practice playing patterns with them. Young scholars identify the patterning in a musical piece.

Students extend linear and directional patterns, identify patterns in classroom and community environments, create original patterns incorporating the senses of sight and sound, and operate video and recording equipment.
