Students explore concepts of probability and independent events. They develop a formula for deviation percentage.

Students explore the law of large numbers. In this problem solving lesson, students view an episode of "Cyberchase" and apply the law to determine probability in 2 different scenarios.

The more trials scholars perform, the closer they'll likely be to the true value. After designing a probability experiment, young mathematicians conduct the experiment for five different numbers of trials. They then analyze the results,...

Learners investigate why theoretical probability doesn't always match reality. The activity involves using Python 2.7 (or Sage) to set up a Bernoulli Trial. It also involves setting up a spreadsheet to simulate the Birthday Paradox....

Demonstrate the use of scientific notation within word problems. The lesson presents problems with large numbers best represented with scientific notation. Pupils use these numbers to solve the problems in the 11th installment in a...

Play some games, develop a law, and then call it a day. Learners first perform a small number of trials for a probability experiment, then predict the result for a larger number of trials. They then compile data from the entire class to...

Develop the concept that numbers from 11 to 19 are essentially a 10, plus more! The first two of the six story problems on this sheet are scaffolded with pictures. Learners compose and decompose numbers to answer how many 10s and how...

Take a step beyond Algebra 2. Learners use the eBook to learn concepts from the typical Precalculus course. Content starts off with a short review of functions in general and moves on to the basic functions, finishing up with more...

Bring some Halloween math to the class for a spooktacular addition to your instruction. Here, scholars color by number to uncover four spooky scenes including a pumpkin, a bat flying across the moon, haunted trees, and a cat. 

Examine numbers in scientific notation as a comparison of size. The 14th activity in the series asks learners to rewrite numbers as the same power of 10 in scientific notation to make comparisons. Pupils also learn how to use a...

Students investigate what happens when a coin is tossed a few times versus many times. They analyze, in groups, the data from tossing coins, and the Law of Large Numbers.

Dividing large numbers can be a long and frustrating process for young mathematicians, but after completing these skills practice worksheets they'll be masters of long division.

There are many ways to correlate coffee to life, but in this case a worksheet looks at the price of two different sizes of coffee. It requires interpreting a graph with two unknown variables, in this case the price, and solving for...

In this math worksheet, students read large numbers. They describe a million as a thousand thousands. Students use various ways of telling large amounts.

In this addition worksheet, students solve 6 problems in which larger numbers will be added with carrying. These are story problems. Students write the number sentence needed and solve.

Practice multiplication and division with a worksheet about multiplication properties. After reviewing the commutative property, identity property, zero property, and associative property, kids solve ten multiplication and division...

Young scholars work with large numbers when determining the height of a stack of $20 bills.

Using their problem-solving skills, 4th graders use multiplication to find the answers to six questions. In this simple instructional activity, students practice multiplying numbers by multiples of ten. This is a easy and quick way to...

Explore the concept of this perfect square trinomial and difference of squares instructional activity. A hands-on activity that uses paper rectangles and squares to illustrate the perfect-square trinomial and difference of squares formulas.

A cute set of pocket chart pieces can help you sing about "Five Green Speckled Frogs." The resource includes lyric strips for the song, as well as five frogs (one is eating a most delicious bug), a log, and numbers one through five.

Establish 1:1 correspondence by counting students, first one gender, then the other. Give each child a colored cube (one color for boys, another for girls) and have small groups determine more or less and how many all together. As a...

Burgers and salads and sodas, oh my! Scholars use a menu to investigate the Fundamental Counting Principle. They create tree diagrams to illustrate the number of possible choices for each given scenario.

Students read about the changes in the "new money" and then create a graph to represent various combinations of currency produced.

Students investigate action and reaction. In this energy lesson, students use a  balloon and string to create a simple rocket. The will collect quantitative data record their observations, and relate their observations to Newton's...
