Students work with large numbers and recognizing mathematical symbols and the factorial symbol and its meaning.

Learners analyze real life jobs that involve math. They discuss jobs where math is used, and explore how math is important in many areas and research some of these jobs in the book "Paws in Jobland." They complete a worksheet with four...

Students do a collection of activities which deal with operations on integers and fractions.

his unit uses two of the series of four Divider learning objects to support the students division of whole numbers where the quotient is a mixed number (whole number and fraction). The Divider encourages the students to split a division...

Fourth graders are asked to name different shapes.Four to five students to share their answers with the class. The teacher leads the discussion in geometry about the properties associated with shapes.

How are skyscrapers built? What does it take to make a structurally sound building? How can one work within a budget to complete a building project? These guiding questions will be investigated and answered within a hands-on lesson....

This jumbo worksheet contains everything you need to get through Pre-Algebra. Begin with simple expressions, and end with linear functions and polygons. There are multiple problems for each topic to make sure those skills are set. 

Chemistry neophytes use a temperature probe to assess the change as five different liquids evaporate. The implantation section suggests that they take readings every five seconds for a total of four minutes. They graph the data, look up...

Using a varity of strategies, young mathematicians solve multistep word problems. They play a logic game as a whole group, and then work with a partner on a computer to complete a worksheet that requires a variety of problem solving...

Learners perform operations with matrices. In this algebra lesson, students use cryptography and cryptanalysis to solve problems. They add, subtract, and multiply matrices.

Start with the definition of a determinant and how to evaluate a 2x2 determinant. Apply this skill to solve systems of two equations with two unknowns by using Cramer's rule. These four basic problems would be good for a quick review or...

In this math learning exercise, students practice making six multiplication sequences. Students write an explanation of four sequences. Students also practice multiplying with exponents by completing twenty problems.

First graders problem solve using the concepts of doubling and halving numbers as previews for finding multiples and working with fractions. They determine how to find half of a set of objects and work with sums up to 16. They work with...

Sixth graders represent division of fractions using manipulatives, such as freezer pops, candy bars, and models such as drawings squares. They develop an algorithm from these examples and solve problems using fractions.

Fourth graders investigate repeating and growing patterns. Models, graphs and words are used to describe, extend and represent patterns. Students use evidence from models and graphs to support the identification of patterns.

Students work systematically to find all the possible combinations. They Students write and solve problems which involve whole numbers and which require a choice of one or more of the four arithmetic operations.

Students subtract using decimals and find half of a decimal number. They write and solve problems which involve decimals and which require a choice of one or more of the four arithmetic operations.

Third graders pick up plastic ants scattered on the floor. They take them back to their desks, count them, and add their totals to those of other students.

Third graders discuss light sources and collect data about energy sources. They compare data and create a multiple line graph showing energy used by light sources for each student in the group. They present their graphs and write a...

Young environmentally conscious mathematicians solve a variety of problems related to the central theme of uncovering illegal logging activities. They determine a base camp based on given constraints, investigate logging activities and...

This presentation covers a lot of ground. Square numbers, metal math computations, commutative property, ordering positive and negative integers, factoring, and real world problem solving are all covered. Use over the course of several...

With a few extra numbers, these fact families would be complete! After looking at an example, scholars write in the sums and differences for six equations as part of three different fact families. This is really for beginners to this...

Challenge young mathematicians to buy classroom supplies by staying within the means of a $1,000 budget. The mathematical activity provides learners with the opportunity to decide what items from the supply list would benefit a class of...

Young scholars use four digits obtained from rolling four dice to create a mathematical expression equal to 24.
