Class members predict and count how many items need to be cleaned up in class while skip counting by 10s. They estimate whether having each child clean up 10 items will be enough to get the room ready for the next day. Everyone counts...

It's assessment time! Determine your young mathematicians' understanding of elapsed time with this brief, five-question quiz.

In this money instructional activity, students fill up a grid with coins and then roll dice to get ordered pairs and take the money of the ordered pair that they roll. Students then add up their money in the end and see who wins.

Third graders read word problems to determine the start time, given the elapsed time and end time.

Combine word problems, telling time, and the four operations. Six problems prompt third graders to write out and solve word problems involving time and timing. Can they finish all six on their own or with a partner?

Upper graders use a variety of tools to measure liquid and solid ingredients in an ice cream making recipe. Following written and oral directions and accurately timing themselves forms the basis of this instructional activity.

Students explore the oceans from their origin. In this oceans lesson, students read and discuss excerpts from the Book of Genesis regarding the creation of the ocean. Students then clean up a mock oil spill, measure the volume and area...

Students experiment with time. In this time lesson, students discuss the importance of time and clocks. They use a timer to find how long it takes to complete activities. 

Students explore time by comparing the duration of an egg timer with how many pegs they can put in a pegboard. They experience one on one correspondence, as they place a peg in the whole. Students discover estimation of time and number...

Reinforce the concept of probability with a series of lessons highlighting the idea of likelihood, probability formulas, relative frequency, outcomes, and event predictions. The collection is made up of four lessons offering informative...

Students find that cleaning up can be easy. In this early childhood instructional activity, students practice fine motor skills while making their classroom more safe. Students create large storage boxes.

Here is an assessment designed to test mathematicians' knowledge of writing numbers, comparing numbers, skip counting, solving addition and subtraction problems; along with measuring objects, telling time, identifying shapes, reading...

Seven activities make up a collection of supplemental materials to reinforce graphing on a coordinate plane. Worksheet objectives include plotting coordinates within single and four quadrants, measuring straight and...

Students predict what sort of activities can be accomplished during the allotted time. In this time lesson, students record their predictions and perform the activities they predicted that they could accomplish within the 20 minute time...

Using a 100s chart or a number line with a pointer, work with your class to count up to 100 by ones and tens. As a part of daily instruction, prompt your kindergartners to chant count from 1 to 30. Move on to 1 to 50, and then from 1 to...

Introduce learners to exponential growth with this real-world problem about algae that is rapidly spreading across a lake in a city park. The task presents the rate of growth and an end value and asks learners to determine what happened...

Pupils volunteer their time to clean a local park. They estimate the amount of debris they collect and make observations. They write a poem and draw an illustration about their experience.

In this recognizing fraction usage activity, students measure fractions in recipes, match fractions and pictures, and compare pizzas. Students solve 18 problems.

Students estimate the number of items in a group. In this estimation lesson, students are presented with random objects to clean up. Students estimate how many items are present and then compare the actual number of items to their...

Taxi! Have your travelers figure out how far they can go in a taxi for $10.00. They must account for the mileage rate and tip in their calculation. They can set up a table or make an equation to solve for the exact mileage they can...

Students arrange containers by their capacity. In this volume lesson, students place containers in order by increasing capacity. Students discuss how the tallest container doesn't necessarily hold the largest amount.

Students diagram a plant. In this Science lesson, students explore the concept of photosynthesis focusing on the oxygen production. Students calculate the amount of plants needed to filter the air in their classroom.

Using food as a manipulative is one of the best ways to incorporate hands-on learning in the classroom. This hands-on approach allows young mathematicians to compare, order, and identify fractions with the use of Twizzlers® and...

In this Big Bang activity, students are given the equation used to determine the rate at which the universe is expanding according to the Big Bang theory. Students solve 4 problems using this equation. They find the integral for time,...
