Students find the slopes for perpendicular and parallel lines. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. They use Cabri software to create lines to compare.

Students read the novel Stone Fox by John Reynold Gardiner. Using Lego RCX units, students build and program sleds to re-enact the "home stretch" of the National Dog Sled Race.

In this problem solving worksheet, students determine if the shaded parts of 8 different shapes are fractions or not. Students answer one analyzing question on the lines provided.

In this percentages worksheet, students write eighteen fractions as percentages. Students problem solve each fraction as a percentage.

Students take an Internet field trip to research fractions. ESOL strategies include using pattern block manipulatives and pairing ESOL and non-ESOL students on computers.

In this math worksheet, students are introduced to decimals by first studying pattern blocks showing a number with tens, ones and tenths. Students locate decimals on number lines and rulers and shade decimal pictures. Students compare...

Fifth graders determine how to convert fractions, decimals, and percents. In this conversion lesson, 5th graders use an on-line applet to practice making these conversions. They review how to make the conversions in a whole class lesson...

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...

Young scholars explore the additive identity property where they add multiple numbers to get to the number 6. In this number 6 lesson plan, students also work on their addition charts.

Sew up your unit on operations with decimals using this assessment task. Young mathematicians use given rules to determine the amount of fabric they need to sew a pair of pants. They must also fill in a partially complete bill for...

Students practice finding the sums of two-one digit numbers. In this addition lesson plan, students also record facts onto an addition chart.

Fifth graders engage in a "layered" unit of discovery. There are three levels of potential learning opportunities, in the spirit of the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver (bronze, silver, gold). The instructional activity is based upon fractions.

Add 30 sets of mixed fractions that have common denominators. Elementary math minds get plenty of practice with this printable page. You will find the answers provided with the click of a box in the upper left corner of the web page.

Students test their knowledge of the Wright Brothers and their aircraft, and compute ratio of two numbers to determine the ratio between wing span and length of aircraft.

Ordering numbers just got physical! Learners practice putting numbers in sequence, both in fraction and decimal form. To begin, they line up in birthday order and discuss the difference between ascending and descending. They are then...

Students use fractions and words to find a coded message and the first student to solve the message wins a candy bar.

Sixth graders examine making smaller parts out of fractions and decimals. In this online interactive fractions, decimals, and percents instructional activity, 6th graders represent fractions with denominators of ten. Students then...

Students study related addition and subtraction facts. In this math lesson, students use related addition and subtraction to solve problems. Students use manipulatives to explore fact families.

Learners gain practice in the use of fractions, changing fractions, using equivalent fractions, and paying attention to detail. They divide a word into appropriate fractional parts and use equivalent fractions to correctly divide words.

Students gain practice in the use of fractions, changing fractions, using equivalent fractions, and paying attention to detail. They divide words into fractional parts. This is a fun way for kids to work with fractions.

Fifth graders interpret data into graphs and percentages.  In this organizing data lesson, 5th graders discuss bar, circle and line graphs.  Students complete bar graph and apply probability using the results.

In this problem solving activity, students complete 7problems that include skills in fractions, calculators, money, measurement, calendars and basic operations.

Fourth graders use the story of the discovery of irrational numbers to explore the different classes of numbers, the different ways in which numbers may be represented, and how to classify different numbers into their particular class.

In this math worksheet, 2nd graders complete multiple choice questions about patterns, shapes, fractions, and more. Students complete 15 questions.
