Students complete computer activities about estimating if items are more or less than a given amount. In this estimation lesson plan, students also estimate measurements around the classroom.

Students carve pumpkins, draw pictures and label layers of a seed, and write steps needed to carve pumpkin.

Students identify geometric shapes, demonstrate construction of an object graph, compare sets of objects, estimate which student has the most geometric shapes in his or her bag, and play computer game Jump Start Kindergarten.

In this telling time learning exercise, students use clocks to tell time to the nearest quarter of an hour. In this fill in the blank learning exercise, students write answers to six problems.

In this customary length activity, students solve 4 problems where they must choose the better estimate of length. Students solve 12 problems where they must compare, convert and order customary lengths.

Students investigate money. In this consumer math lesson, students use coins, identify their value, then group them in various ways to equal a dollar.

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. For this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

Students practice counting and comparing objects.  In this math lesson, students view a Count on It! episode. Students examine the value of what they are counting.  Students estimate number in groups of items.  Students...

Students estimate measurements in real world problem situations. In this estimation lesson, students read the book Pancakes, Pancakes and estimate how many cups equal a pint, quart, and gallon. Students test their estimations by...

Students participate in a measuring scavenger hunt. Students choose items around the room to estimate and measure. Students try measuring with their hands and compare with other students who did the same. Students discuss why their...

Fourth graders give change of one dollar.  In this decimal and fractions lesson, 4th graders receive fake coins and discuss what they could purchase with them.  Students go for a walk and spend one dollar and  get...

In this problem solving worksheet, students practice writing 8 fractions as a decimal. Students round each answer to five decimal places.

For this decimals worksheet, students practice converting 6 fractions into decimals. Students round each conversion to 5 decimal places.

In this consumer math learning exercise, students estimate and then multiply the given money amounts. Students also practice finding change. There are seven problems to complete.

In this number sense worksheet, 5th graders solve 37 problems based on a given number. Students are asked to round the number, identify the number as even or odd and add 100 to the number.

Students find patterns relating the lengths of the sides of squares to their areas. In this squares and square roots lesson, students draw squares and find their areas. They estimate the sides of square when given the area. Students use...

How many hours should learners devote to studying outside of class? Learners use this learning exercise to not only practice estimation, but also develop a valuable study skill for their future academic careers.

Long considered the symbol of safe harbor and steadfast waiting, the lighthouse gets a mathematical treatment. The straightforward question of distance to the horizon is carefully presented, followed by a look into the...

Young scholars describe the mark/recapture method used to estimate fish populations. They explain the importance of being able to predict population numbers.

Pupils conduct an experiment to determine dew point and use a formula to detemine altitude. They construct a chart and predict what altitude clouds would form, given the dew point on the ground.

Sixth graders estimate the measurement of angles and linear distance from one point to another. Using a specified website, 6th graders play a game of "Golf" where they enter the angle and distance a ball must be hit. Upon completion of...

In this set of fraction worksheets, learners cut out 6 pages of circles that show fractions with stars covering different sections of circles. They show one section of the circle in order to estimate the whole number of stars by looking...

In this angle worksheet, students first estimate, then measure within 15 degrees and name a set of 3 angles. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this weight worksheet, students choose the answer that is the closest to the actual weight of an object shown in a picture, writing the weight beside each. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
