Students collect and organize data about themselves. For this data analysis lesson, students discuss their favorite calendar dates and explore ways to display the data.

Students practice measurement using real world objects. In this scavenger hunt for lengths lesson plan, students collaborate to measure with rulers, yardsticks, trundle wheels, and tape measures.  Students must estimate the length...

Students identify patterns and compute formulas to solve the problems. In this algebra lesson, students come up with a rule given a pattern, and analyze the relationship between data and graphs.

Sixth graders study the concept of probability. In this probability activity, 6th graders create spinners that match specific sets of clues. Students use their spinners and worksheets to explore and predict probability.

Students view Elmer Holtzrichter's work Mystery Planet and discuss basic shapes and patterns. They create their own collage. and discuss the patterning they created. Students demonstrate how this pattern would sound with clapping and...

Students study types of transportation. In this transportation lesson plan, students survey several classes to gather data on how they get to school. Students create a transportation graph.

Students construct a bar graph with a given set of data. They calculate the ratio and percent of the data. Students discuss alternate ways of graphing the data as well as multiple strategies to approach the task.

Second graders view a model of a survey and tally.   In this survey and tally lesson, 2nd graders decide on questions for a survey.  Students conduct the survey and tally their results. Students create a tally chart....

First graders participate in hands-on activities and use objects to create patterns. They observe a PowerPoint lesson describing matching objects and patterns. In groups, 1st graders complete geometry computer activities such as planting...

Students investigate graphing.  In this bar graph lesson plan, students view an informational website about graphing, then construct a class birthday bar graph outside with sidewalk chalk. Students choose a survey topic, then...

First graders analyze characteristics of geometric shapes. They identify, describe, and create simple geometric figures. They analyze characteristics of geometric shapes and determine the defining attributes of a circle,...

Students create and extend patterns. In this pattern lesson, students learn to identify patterns using multiple senses. Students work at centers in small groups to explore and extend their understanding of patterns.

Students explore how an archaeologist works and makes discoveries. In this archaeology lesson, students participate in a simulation in which they excavate broken pottery. Students use measurement, geometry, and observation skills during...

Students calculate gas prices. For this transportation lesson, students tally the mileage and gas costs of their car for one months. They figure out how much was spent on gas and create a graph showing average gas prices over time. 

Student make bird feeders and describe feeding behaviors. In this bird feeder lesson plan, students construct simple bird feeders. They then put them outside and observe the feeding behaviors of birds. Then they graph the number of birds...

Students compare and organize different fractions. In this fraction lesson, students use wax paper divided into squares to represent fractions. Students put them in different orders based on their value to complete their mathematics...

Fifth graders investigate the interchangeable relationship betweeen fractions and percents. They discuss the concepts using teacher provided questions. Then sutdents work in cooperative groups to maximize scaffolding.

Learners explore measurements and geometric formulas. For this geometry lesson, students investigate pi as it relates to geometry. They collect data and use a chart to organize the data.

In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders solve 14 systems of equations using substitution or elimination and 14 word problems.

First graders learn how use a ruler to measure common items. In this measurement instructional activity, 1st graders examine the numerical markings on rulers and learn that each number stands for a unit of measure. They measure 5...

Young scholars collect, graph and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students use circle, pie, bar and lines to represent data. They analyze the data and make predictions bases on the scatter plots created.

In this number 6 worksheet, students trace the word "six" and then practice writing in on their own on this lines provided. They then circle 6 brushes from the group at the bottom of the page.

In this printing and counting ten worksheet, students trace the dotted examples of the word "ten". Students then count the apples in a set and circle ten.

Students walk around numbered tiles on the floor as music plays. When the music stops, a number is drawn and if they are on that number they win reward (Cheetos or other snack.)
