Students practice using a different type of measurement each day. They complete data sheets to record their information. They practice estimating the weight of an object as well.

Learners examine the Illinois state quarter and review Lincoln and the fact that he is also on the penny. They color paper coins, identify their values, and create a money mobile. They play a Cent Sense game to practice which coins are...

Students participate in an online interactive forum to explore how math is used in their families and communities. They design games to submit to other students online, and identify and organize data to solve the problems from other...

Students discuss and create their own patterns. They practice and improve on making patterns of their own using red, white, and blue paper for a national theme. The symbols are based on what the teacher picks for the class.

Students connect a number to an appropriate quantity of M&M candies. They identify and use whole numbers.

Students examine the process of evaporation. They observe how when clay dries, the water evaporates and how the weight of the object decreases. They complete a worksheet to complete the lesson.

Students work together to identify and categorize objects. They have to identify the object on touch because they are blindfolded. They record their data and describe the objects once they can look at them.

Learners participate in guessing their partners' hidden Lego pieces from their verbal clues. They work in partners to accomplish their goals. They are meeting a variety of math standards by completing this lesson.

Students listen to the book "Henry Builds a Cabin." They design a cabin using Lego pieces based on information from the story.
