Create a class of mathematics master. They practice addition to ten until they have mastered the skill. They use their hands to add numbers and eventually find the missing addend to make a sum of 10. They also subtract a single digit...

Second graders find missing addends by solving math word problems. In this missing addend lesson, 2nd graders work in a whole group setting to find the missing addends in word problems before using the strategies to work independently....

Practice basic operations for young mathematicians in fun ways! Using two decks of cards (Ace through 10 plus the joker), learners play "memory" by matching numbers that can be added to make 10 and writing number sentences. In another...

Students solve single variable equations. In this missing addend lesson, students solve problems with missing addends. Students create a function box to help study numerical reasoning.

Second graders have an opportunity to work in pairs as they search for the missing addend to complete a mathematical sentence. They identify and demonstrate the ability to change the order of the addends and still produce the same sum....

Young mathematicians research and discuss real world math word problems and ways in which they apply math concepts in their everyday lives. They create a storyboard of a math word problem from which they create a slide for a multi-media...

Students explore solving addition and subtraction problems. They solve real life problems. Students participate in a simulation activity to find the missing addend. They demonstrate adding and subtracting whole numbers.

Second graders explore number values by completing number sentences. In this math functions lesson, 2nd graders identify whole numbers by using a visual aide and practice filling in the blank in number sentences. Students utilize their...

In this math worksheet, students will work with a coach to find the average of three bowling scores. Students will follow a step-by-step process and notes are provided for the coach.

Students investigate patterns in the Food Pyramid.  In this patterns in the Food Pyramid lesson, students sort food into different food groups.  Students make patterns with food from different food groups.  Students...

Students assess informal methods to solve real-world problems that utilize simple equations that involve one variable. They incorporate concrete objects to assist them in the solving of a variety of equations. The students are actively...

Second graders participate in Math-Eze activities to comprehend word problems. In this word problem lesson, 2nd graders recognize why a hexagon is the best shape for a beehive. Students calculate how far bees must travel to find 2 lbs....

Students practice solving very basic number sentences and recording their answers on a worksheet. Individually, they use different manipulatives to represent the sentence they solved. They also explain what steps were taken to solve...
