Students collect data from one of three selected biomes. Data are then organized and statistically analyzed. This project engages students of different backgrounds grouped cooperatively in a relevant outdoor hands-on learning experience.

Students work together to solve problems. In this math lesson, students apply math skills of graphing to work on an assignment together and at the same time, learn to problem solve. They walk away learning to work well in groups.

Fifth graders rotate through six math stations to solve a variety of story problems involving multiplication and division. They observe a demonstration of how to do multiplication and division using grouping, then solve the story...

Demonstrate how to read analog and digital clocks to the hour in this time measurement lesson. Read the book What Time is it Mr. Crocodile? and use Mr. Crocodile's schedule to practice telling time. They work in cooperative groups to...

Young scholars learn how to make patterns. Students first display their prior knowledge of patterns before delving into the lesson. They complete a worksheet and participate in a web-based class activity. They work in cooperative groups...

Have your class create parallel lines. Students will learn how to identify the different angles created by a parallel line cut by a transversal. Then, they identify and name similar and different angles.

Learn how to identify the diameter and circumference of a circle. Then, collect data on a circle and relate it to the diameter and circumference of a circle. Last, plot data and find the line of best fit.

Students study math. In this real-life problem solving instructional activity, students work on their skills dealing with time and money. They work in small groups on various time and money word problems and by the final day they have a...

Students demonstrate different algebraic equations using Borenson's Hands-On Equation materials. They work in a cooperative group to solve algebraic equations.

This helpful lesson explores the probability in tossing a coin and throwing dice. Specifically, it looks at the probability of getting numbers that are significant to the game of craps, assuming that once the math is understood, most...

Students examine geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson plan, students examine how geometric shapes flip, turn, and slide to create a pattern. Students analyze the role that quilts played in helping slaves escape to freedom. ...

Students identify numbers from 0-20. They show quantities to 20. Students work in small groups and take pictures of items demonstrating the numbers that they have beeen taught. They form the number shape using their bodies and take...

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.

Students solve and graph linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students collect and plot data on a coordinate plane. They use the CBL and TI calculator to graph systems of equation.

Here is a well-designed lesson on common standards of measurement for your young mathematicians. In it, learners calculate measurements in standard and non-standard units. They make predictions, record data, and construct and design...

Students discover patterns and write conjectures relating to perimeters and polygons. Working in cooperative learning groups, they use manipulatives and graphic organizers to solve problems then answer a series of questions in which they...

Students explore percentages in real world situations. In this percents activity, students determine the final sales price after discounts. Students interview community members and determine how percentages are used in the real world.

Wow! Put on that thinking cap and solve multi-step equations. To solve equations, learners review the use of the distributive property and combining like terms. This three-day lesson comes with about 20 pages of worksheets, warm-ups,...

Sometimes a skeleton is all you get. This lesson outline provides teachers with a basic lesson flow. Pupils will pre-test, order place value names, use manipulatives, and build and compare numbers. How this is to be done is not...
