Skip count along the mushrooms to complete these number sentences which give young scholars an introductory look at addition and subtraction. Starting from five double-digit numbers, they subtract or add by threes, fours, and fives to...

Math is all around us, and scholars observe various addition scenarios as they solve 15 word problems. Each of these involve two-digit addends, some of which are money values. Although there are no decimals or fractions, learners do...

Once your mathematicians can add two-digit numbers, it's time to bring on the three-digit addends. Here are 20 practice problems, each involving two whole-number addends. Learners do not need to regroup for any of these, and they have...

Help kids visualize subtraction by assigning these sets of objects for them to subtract. They examine an example before completing the seven equations on their own. For each, learners cross out the subtrahend value and count the...

Money is always a source of interest for young mathematicians, so utilize their engagement by adding up coin values. For each set of coins (quarter, dime, nickel, and penny) scholars count up and write the total. The example has them...

Follow the pattern to find what comes next. Youngsters analyze shape patterns to continue the sequence in the provided space. The three patterns increase in difficulty, and then scholars have a chance to create two of their own....

These fact families need to be completed. Scholars use addition and subtraction to complete four number sentences for each set of three numbers. The sentences are all part of the number set's fact family, and demonstrate the commutative...

Which coins add up to these values? Young mathematicians examine five cent values, circling the coins needed to amount to them. Next, they compare money values in four sets of coins. First, learners add up each set to find the total...

Before handing out this number comparison activity, ask scholars to pick a number between 20 and 50. Could they do it? Explain that they chose a number greater than 20 and less than 50, which is exactly what they will be doing next. Each...

Here is an impressive and thorough lesson on estimation. Young mathematicians estimate how many kernels of popcorn can fit in a tablespoon, then how many tablespoons of kernels can fit in a baby food jar. The popcorn is then popped. All...

Show kids that addition has real-life applications as they add up measurements and money. There are some examples here demonstrating regrouping and including units in an answer. They complete 20 measurement addition problems, each with...

Telling time is an important skill. Beginners to this concept determine the time to the nearest half hour using both digital and analog clocks. There are two examples here demonstrating the form scholars should use when recording each...

Complete these images with values one less and one more; young mathematicians fill in bunches of flowers, starting at a middle number and working their way to the right by addition and to the left by subtraction. For each flower they...

Show young economists that adding money is just like adding the numbers they are used to. They complete two addition tables, adding monetary values under 50 cents. There are a couple done for them to give guidance, but learners must...

Explore number value with learners through playing cards. They examine sets of three cards, adding up the value and comparing it to another set of three. Learners write in which is greater than or is less than to show number value...

Encourage young scholars to tap into their inner math-whiz as they add three and four-addend equations. The first 36 problems each have three addends (none over two-digit), and are written horizontally. Next, they complete eight more...

Expose scholars to the ways addition is constantly used through 15 word problems. Many of these have more than two addends, and several involve money math and adding numbers with decimals to the hundredths place. Learners also must use...

If you're looking for guided addition problems, here is a practice list of 30. All of these have two double-digit addends, and many require regrouping. There are three example problems for learners to reference, each of which also...

Show scholars that if they can add up two addends, they can also add up three. Review the examples together before letting scholars try these 25 addition problems, each with three double or single-digit addends. Two of these add up to...

For beginners to picture graphs this is the perfect resource. They analyze two bar graphs that break down data visually so scholars can actually count the number in each column. For the first, they fill in how many of each type of pet is...

Which coins do you need? Scholars are faced with a challenge: using only three coins they must find the exact amount needed for six items. The coins are standard US currency and are pictured at the top, however their value is not listed....

These pictures will cost you! Each shape is worth a money amount. Scholars use this value system to price four images composed of these shapes. There is an example to help them get started which demonstrates labeling each shape before...

Adding and subtracting 100 is a breeze once scholars understand the role place value plays in this math process. They examine four examples before adding 100 to 24 numbers and subtracting 100 from 24 more. If you haven't yet covered...

Introduce mathematicians to multiplication through counting sets of feet. Start by asking them, "How many feet are in this classroom?" See if they notice that it's easier to count pairs rather than individual feet. Scholar use the...
