Use graphing, counting, and number lines to help first graders learn about addition and subtraction. An array of worksheets and activities are an excellent resource for your math lesson, whether you are focusing on counting skills...

This worksheet begins with an explanation of how to add and subtract positive and negative integers. Learners solve and complete 20 different problems that include these types of problems. First, they fill in each blank with the correct...

Fifth and sixth graders compare decimals to the place-value structure in the base-ten number system. They represent fractions as parts of unit wholes, as parts of a set, as locations on a number line, and as divisions of whole numbers....

Young learners listen to a read aloud of Gail Gibbons book, Apples and the story A Red House With No Windows and No Doors. They compare characteristics of a number of kinds of apples, graph them and create a apple print picture. Learners...

The task is simple, but the solution is a little more complex. Learners must find the smallest number that results in a perfect square when multiplied by two and a perfect cube when multiplied by three. The task requires an analysis...

In this mathematics instructional activity, students solve a number of problems by multiplying a three-digit number times a four or five digit number. There are 16 problems to solve on the sheet.

Learning how numbers are put together as parts and wholes is a big step in building the foundational number sense of young mathematicians. Here, children are given a number less than 10 and are asked to find as many pairs of numbers as...

There is more than one way to add mixed numbers. This instructional activity asks 5th graders to find and record two ways. The purpose is to help pupils realize there are different ways to reach a common solution in math. The two most...

Investigate the relationship between addition and subtraction as scholars fill in these number sentences, each of which is missing a symbol. Is it a subtraction or addition equation? There are 20 of these to start, all written...

Which of these numbers add up to 20? Scholars find various addend pairs in a grid, circling those that add up to 20. There are many pairs they can find here, and the answer sheet offers some excellent kinesthetic practice ideas for...

Bring balance to your lesson plans with an activity that asks individuals to solve one-step linear equations with inverse operations. Balance scales help learners understand the concept of isolating the variable.

Money is an excellent way to help young mathematicians practice adding and subtracting numbers with decimals. They solve 15 word problems representing a variety of scenarios for calculating money. For some, scholars determine which bills...

Can two lines intersect at more than one point? Using yarn, create two lines on the floor of the classroom to find out. Cooperative groups work through the process of solving systems of equations using task cards and three different...

Determine whether the payoff is worth it. Pupils calculate the expected value of a game with three different payoff levels. Each level has a different probability of winning money. The scholars find the expected payoffs for each...

Youngsters participate in three activities using the hundreds chart. They will choose numbers to add up to one hundred. Whoever gets the most combinations wins. Two variations of the game are supplied.

In this algebra activity, students identify and use the properties of real numbers to solve problems. They identify and differentiate between rational and irrational functions. There are 13 problems.

Students investigate the mathematical patterns of the Fibonacci Sequence. They determine how math is connected to music, specifically looking at music the uses the pattern sequence found in the Fibonacci Sequence.

In this number words: thousands worksheet, 4th graders interactively enter the number words for 10 numerals in the thousands, with immediate online feedback.

Pattern blocks and shapes demonstrate how to add and subtract fractions. By aligning blocks with different shapes, learners figure out how to create a whole, and then how to add and delete parts from that whole.

Stop the summer lag with a set of second grade Common Core based math practice sheets. Learners fill in hundreds charts with missing numbers up to 1,000. They practice writing numbers in standard, expanded, and word form. Children also...

In this word problems activity, learners read and problem solve nine  mathematical word problems involving grids, measurement, compensation and angles.

Add some randomization into simulations. The 11th installment in a series of 25 presents two new methods to use in simulations--colored disks, and random numbers. Pupils use random numbers to run simulations where the probabilities make...

Human fingerprint patterns are the result of layers of skin growing at different paces, thus causing the layers to pull on each other forming ridges. Here, groups of learners see how patterns and fingerprints assist scientists in a...

Sometimes it's necessary to view the whole picture before making a judgment about a small part. Read a short story about five blind men who try to identify an elephant by feeling different parts and coming to their own conclusions....
