Looking for addition drills for your scholars to practice adding one and two-digit numbers? You've found it! Mathematicians examine an example before finding the sum of 16 equations, each of which involves one 2-digit addend and one...

Don't table the resource on writing expressions for relationships in tables. Scholars investigate relationships between variables and write algebraic expressions involving multiplication and division. These expressions help solve...

What are terms, factors, and coefficients? This slideshow provides definitions and examples of various parts of algebraic expressions, and provides guided practice problems in writing and identifying parts of algebraic expressions for...

Have fun while building the number sense of young mathematicians with this list of ten-frame learning games. From developing cardinality and counting skills to learning place value and basic addition strategies, ten-frames are excellent...

Do your students have what it takes to be the king of math? Find out with this fun skills practice game that covers a wide range of topics from counting and basic operations to measurement and fractions.

Students solve word problems in which they add, subtract, multiply, and/or divide integers, identify rules and patterns for multiplying and dividing integers, create scenarios that represent each expression, and evaluate expressions.

Third graders solve In and Out function problems. They analyze a chart and discuss the steps to solving the functions, and discuss the patterns and complete the charts. Students then create a book of repeating patterns using magazines,...

Proving a trig identity might just be easier than proving your own identity at the airport. Learners first investigate a table of values to determine and prove the addition formulas for sine and cosine. They then use this result to...

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.

Rules are meant to be broken ... but not integer multiplication and division rules. Learners use chips to model integer multiplication and division. The results of the activity help them develop integer rules for these operations.

Using the Hudson River as the focus, learners discuss the difference between salt water and fresh water environments, analyze maps and graphs, and complete addition and subtraction problems. This lesson comes with a wealth of...

How are your second graders progressing in their math skills? Find out with a series of math assessment activities. With baseline assessment score sheets for each skill, you can track how well your kids are adding, subtracting, telling...

These caterpillars each have a number sequence printed on their segmented bodies, but some numbers are missing! Look at the completed caterpillars as an example, asking kids to notice a possible pattern. They should observe that the...

Students work with rectangles to find generalizations for adding and subtracting odd and even numbers in part one of the instructional activity. In part two, students use geoboards to construct polygons, look for patterns, and find a...

Who knew there were so many fun educational opportunities featuring pasta? Scholars read a brief informational text about the history of pasta (note that "macaroni" is spelled two different ways, so address this if kids are reading...

Jump start children's math education with this fun basic skills resource. Offering dozens of different touch-and-swipe activities with colorful graphics, this program is perfect for all young learners.

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....

Assess scholars' knowledge with a 22-page assessment that covers place value, patterns, probability, estimation, measurement, geometric figures; and their ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide proficiently. 

Teach the class how to continue a given number pattern, and have them state a rule to explain their answer. Arithmetic sequences and related worksheets are used to reinforce the concept of numerical patterns using the nthterm.

You have the answer and a variable, but something is missing! The class fills in the missing addend in 23 practice problems that all add up to 10. This is a great way to build number sense, pattern recognition, and automaticity.

Fractions can be tricky. Why not have kids think of fractions like they think of eighth, quarter, and half notes? In teams, the class creates four-measure patterns with their percussion instruments. They need to explain their rhythm...

Investigate the various properties of the number six with this elementary math lesson. From simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems to the creation of hexagonal tessellations, this lesson covers all aspects of...

Second graders use blocks to show the addition and subtraction of fractions with common denominators. They identify the steps in these functions and complete a worksheet.

The Happy Game will make your students smile! They play this game to review basic math concepts such as, finish the pattern, even and odd numbers, addition, subtraction, and word problems. Tip: Use this PowerPoint as a template to create...
