Seventh graders use the Internet to get current sports information for data analysis. They use their data to find the mean, median, mode and range. Students then place their data on a spreadsheet.

Sixth graders create a menu. In this math lesson, 6th graders use mean, median and mode to determine the prices for the typical cost of an appetizer, entree, kid's meal, drinks and dessert. Students write a number sentence to show how...

Learners explore the concept of multiplication by using pizza. They read an article discussing how math is used everyday. They try to determine how many pizzas they would need to feed the class.

First graders use real coins or concrete models of coins to solve problems involving the purchase of items. They use cons and simulate going to a bargain store to purchase items. Students record the total cost of items. Pupils make a...

Delve into graphing! The concepts covered begin with basic graphing basic coordinates and algebraic expressions on coordinate planes, and build up to graphing linear inequalities and equations. Learners solve and simplify various...

Kindergarteners explore various representations and uses of numbers to develop number sense. They participate in an activity and arrange patterns into groups. Students compare the sets and describe the objects in each set.

Fourth graders practice their multiplication facts by using jump ropes and incorporating math into physical education. They use their jump ropes to jump the product of the multiples that the teacher calls out.

First graders use geometric shapes to create and extend patterns. Students read a book and view African garments. They identify patterns in the garments. Students create and decorate a paper vest with geometric patterns.

Students design a "dream house" and plan to install flooring, tile and other products that are bought by a certain measurement. Problem solving be used in determining how much of each product to use and the total cost of each installed.
