Prime and Composite Numbers
Sixth graders identify prime and composite numbers and complete an activity problem. Given a 100 chart, they follow directions to create a prime number chart. In groups, 6th graders play a "Prime Take Away" activity to reinforce prime...
Curated OER
Prime and Composite Numbers
Sixth graders investigate the concept of prime and composite numbers. They use a review of multiplication to help explain factoring. Students are taught the definition of a prime and composite number and then practice independently.
Curated OER
Math on the Mound
Students explore mathematical applications of the current intra-city World Series. After learning how one school district is incorporating the World Series in its classrooms, students consider possible applications of the Series in their...
Curated OER
Reliable Problem Solving Techniques
Students practice the Request-Response-Result problem solving technique. They explore how and when it should be used.
Curated OER
All About Ratios
Young scholars investigate the use of multiplication and division of whole numbers to solve problems including equivalent ratios and rates.
Curated OER
Dynamic Collages and Assemblages
Students create a two, three, or four-dimensional collage or assemblage. They use shapes, colors, images, objects, and textures to create their collage.
Curated OER
Measurement via Triangulation
Students utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula to...
Curated OER
Rotation Symmetry
Pupils investigate the concept of symmetry by using various examples and performing independent practice with scaffolding provided by the teacher. They review reflection symmetry and cover the new rotation symmetry using manipuatives.
Curated OER
2 Digit Subtraction Worksheets with Regrouping
In these subtraction worksheets, learners will subtract single and double digit subtrahends from double digit minuends. Students will need to regroup to solve.
Curated OER
Three-Dimensional Figures
Sixth graders explore three-dimensional objects. Using various objects found in the classroom, they identify faces, edges, and vertices of objects. Students create their own objects. They describe the polydron, telling the faces,...
Curated OER
Addition & Subtraction Properties With Integers
Sixth graders use a number line to solve addition and subtraction problems. In groups, they play a game of "Human Number Line Relay." They use a deck of cards to randomly create addition and subtraction equations and physically walk a...
Curated OER
Prime and Composite Numbers, Prime Factorization
Students research prime and composite numbers. With a partner, students use graph paper to draw rectangles of various sizes. They list the dimensions of rectangles and discuss how the dimensions relate to the factors of each number....
