Third graders can solve multiplication and division problems quickly by recognizing the relationship between the two operations.

Children need to understand why the mathematical properties work and how they are applied. In this lesson plan, we explore modeling and "proving" the associative property.

Children need to move from the manipulative expressions of the distributive property into the mathematical equations eventually. This lesson is the first step in leading them to that goal.

SWBAT order a set of numbers and quantities up to 12 and compare two quantities up to 10 to see which one is greater. The students will also demonstrate their knowledge of how the numbers in the counting sequence are related (that each...

SWBAT count a set of up to 20 objects by 1's. SWBAT use number names and written numbers to label the quantities they represent. SWBAT order a set of numbers and quantities up to 12.

Making connections between art, math, and the real world helps students understand integers in our daily lives.

Patterns are everywhere. We can use patterns to help us deal with larger numbers

The ability to making informed decisions about nutrition is built on using multiplication, division, and an understanding of grams and portion size.

Create a snack for testing week while practicing division and multiplication.

Third graders develop their understanding of multiplication by grouping objects into equal groups to model the factors and products.

The children have been practicing decomposing areas and now digits in order to understand and use the distributive property.

You'll find an explanation of place value in expanded form in this lesson. There is also an interesting game that helps to show place value.

This interactive game has students apply skills in estimation, measurement, and basic addition using pearls. Students are asked to estimate the number of pearls in a treasure chest by making predictions and using number sense. The skills...
