Students recall basic multiplication facts by writing answers on a wheel form, competing against other teams to finish the wheels. They review multiplication facts on a Spinning Wheels Web Lesson.

Young scholars explore sampling with and without replacement. They explore the effects on the probability of drawing a desired object. Students examine probability and the difference between sampling with and without replacement.

Learners determine the probability of drawing coins from each of the three United States Mints. They measure the distance between the Mints and determine which is closest to them. They convert fractions to percentages.

Learners recognize the mathematical connections between fractions and percents. They develop and study graphs to make connections between their data and what it represents. They write about the connections they have discovered.

Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...

In this percentages worksheet, students calculate percentages in eighteen problem solving percentage equations. Students show each step of their work.

Fifth graders solve equations. In this algebraic equations lesson plan, 5th graders use the inverse operation to solve an equation. The teacher reminds students to perform the operation on both sides of the equation. This lesson plan...

Students engage in a lesson which provides them with a concrete introduction to the concept of ratios. They demonstrate the ability to create ratios with given substances - peanut butter and jelly.

Students experience large numbers by estimating the number of grass blades in a field. They work in small groups to determine numbers of blades of grass in a small area of a field and apply that to determining the total number of blades...

Students are given the task of designing an apartment. In groups, they practice estimating the area and perimeter of different shapes. After designing their space, they apply the same formulas to solving real-world story problems.

In this percentages activity, students write twelve decimals as percentages and twelve percentages as decimals. Students check their answers with the key when they are finished.

In this percentages worksheet, students write eighteen fractions as percentages. Students problem solve each fraction as a percentage.

Fifth graders convert kilometers to miles and calculate the range that historical aircraft can travel. They choose destinations by distance that can be traveled without refueling.

Explore division by modeling problems and grouping with manipulatives. This video focuses on dividing whole numbers by unit fractions and modeling the problems with unit blocks.

Visualize solutions to multi-digit division problems by modeling them with virtual manipulatives. This interactive exercise focuses on calculating quotients by working with area models and visualizing the distributive property of division.

The instructional activity will help learners develop an initial understanding of division and clarify how the four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division relate to and are separate from each other. The...

This resource consists of a detailed, hands-on lesson plan for dividing fractions using manipulatives such as fraction bars.

This S.O.S. tutorial gives students a basic review of simple fractions. Follow the tutorial to refresh your skills involving simple fraction manipulations. Each section contains problems with links to the answers.
