Introduce the concept of time and all its implications. Kids discover facts about minutes, seconds, days, weeks, months, and years. They label the parts of an analog and digital clock then practice telling the time to the quarter hour.

Jump-start your morning mathematicians with this set of warm ups! Consider simply projecting the problem of the day for the entire class and having them complete the work in individual notebooks or with a partner. Concepts include...

“Circle the third dog in the row.” The four cleverly illustrated worksheets in this packet give your mathematicians practice with ordinal numbers. Younger learners might need assistance reading the prompts.  An answer sheet is...

Here is a series of morning math activities which will get your class thinking as they start the day. Simply do one or two every day; the variation in types of math will keep them on their toes and reviewing past concepts. Each of the 16...

The class thinks about symmetry and patterns. They view several symmetrical patterns represented as dots with a mirror in between. They discuss which images are symmetrical and which are not, then color in dots to complete a few...

Give the class an opportunity to practice using tally marks as a way to collect data. As you progress through the slide show, learners tally up the number and types of pets they see, they then use their data to create a tally chart....

Learning how to tell time on an analog clock can be tricky for some kids. Start with the basics and teach them to determine the half-past time. There are five clocks shown. Learners draw in the times indicated, each time is half-past the...

There are five numbers here, each of which needs to be decomposed into place values. Young mathematicians complete missing information in a chart which splits numbers into tens and ones. They must fill in the numerals or the tallies...

Help kids understand how to collect data through surveys, organize data in a bar chart, then analyze their findings. There are three different surveys for learners to conduct, a full description of all the parts of a bar chart, and three...

This is a fun reinforcement activity that will provide the class with practice at recognizing shapes based on their properties. They are given a series of clues which they use to draw a shape on their white boards. This is repeated three...

Define plane shapes by their properties, then use this game to reinforce those skills. Learners use given properties as clues to determine each shape. They work to name ten different shapes, six of which are polygons.

It's not just a slideshow, it's a lesson on mass. First, learners complete a mental math warm-up, where they determine the number before and after a series of given numbers, then they form groups to weigh packages and compare mass....

Teach the class how to estimate by rounding to the nearest 10. They review the rules for rounding, try rounding a few numbers using a number line, then round on their own. This is a good introduction that explains how to round and why we...

Finishing patterns can be fun and engaging. Here are nine different patterns that have learners determine the rule or determine which image or shape will come next in the sequence. A very well-done presentation.

Counting money is fun for kids, increases their understanding of addition, and applies mathematics to real world situation. Here are five opportunities for learners to count up their pence and pounds to see how much money they have. Tip:...

Images of base ten blocks are used to reinforce counting past 10. Learners will count along, adding units to each 10 as they go from 10 to 30.  Each number is shown on a 100 block, as blocks of 10s and 1s, and in numeric form as...

Counting by twos, fives, and tens is a great way to build the skills and number sense needed to better grasp the concept of multiplication later on. Here are six number charts to 100, each chart is highlighted and requires the class to...

Just like those handy flash cards, this game is intended to get kids answering their times tables from the 2s through the 12s with automaticity. They go as fast as they can in order to be the first to answer each of the 12 time's tables....

Partitioning or decomposing double and triple-digit numbers is a wonderful way to build number sense and a basic understanding of place value. Here are 12 different numbers, partitioned into their base units and tens or hundreds...

Showcase all the different ways one can pair numbers, resulting in an answer of 20. Cute images such as, a cup and water, tennis racket and ball, and a soccer ball and net help kids make the addition connection. This is a great...

Knowing number bonds that make 10 is a good way to build number sense and can help in solving basic addition and subtraction problems. Kids review number bonds, then play a game where they are given a number and try to shout out the...

Toy cars are used to show the relationship between addition and multiplication. Learners first view the array of cars, then see the related repeated addition and multiplication equations. A great way to build mathematical connections.

Here is an excellent teaching tool! This presentation would be terrific to use when teaching your young learners about the relationship between multiplication, repeated addition, and arrays. Excellent examples are given, and the text...

Here is an entertaining presentation which shows the classic greater than/less than symbols used to compare numerical values. "The alligator always eats the larger number," is what I used to tell my class. This PowerPoint uses the same...
