Second graders create Mystery Numbers. They give the class clues about the name, value, and multiples of the digits which make up the number.

Students sort objects by color. In this classification lesson, students identify the color of the objects and categorize them according to color.

Fifth graders investigate the area of a triangle. In this geometry instructional activity, 5th graders practice finding the area of a triangle using the correct formula: 1/2bh.

Students discover patterns and sequences. They use a website to explore patterns and fractals. Students share their discovery of fractals and their patterns with the class. They develop a list of patterns used in everyday life.

Learners rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.

Second graders accurately measure the distances they and their classmates jump. They determine the mean, median and mode of specific jumps. They are required to have two measurements for each classmate, one for standing long jump and one...

Students listen to the book, Arthur's Funny Money, then play The Price is Right game to estimate and to chart the price of items to the nearest $1.00 and $10.00. They check their estimates by counting out the actual amount in play money.

Young scholars estimate, calculate, and count back the amount of change needed from purchases made during small group activities.

Young scholars examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.

Students examine the concept of sequences. Students create a sequence using varied starting numbers, multipliers, and add on values. Students practice determining the starting values to use in order to produce a desired sequence.

Pupils explore the concept that when money is borrowed, people pay to use it because someone else is losing an opportunity to use it while they have it. What you pay to use the money is called interest. The rate of interest is a percent....

Learners work collaboratively to gain a better understanding of the vastness of space by scaling down the solar system. They measure by inches, gain an understanding of space, and model the distances of the planets from the sun.

Fourth graders use square tiles to help them explain the concept of square numbers.

Young scholars convert standard units of measurement to metric units using tape measures, meter sticks, rulers, and online conversion calculators.

Fifth graders read postcards and find their locations on maps. They use the pictures and text on the postcards to write about imaginary vacations. They compute the mileage and compare it to TripMaker data.

Second graders participate in various activities which help them explain and explain the difference between an estimate and an exact amount.

Learners play a team subtraction game, subtracting two-digit numbers and using addition to check their subtraction. They solve subtraction problems at the board while the team solves the same problem in their seats.

Students examine and discuss typical linear equations, and the difference between a linear and nonlinear equation. They observe examples of linear equations and complete a worksheet.

Students examine the difference of squares equation, and multiply binomials using the FOIL method. They complete the Case of the Missing Middle Term worksheet.

Students write verbal expressions into algebraic expressions and solve the expressions. They determine who wins a race by determining the algebraic expression.

Students compare different aspects of investing money from traditional savings accounts to money market accounts. They research investment accounts at local banks and compare them.

Sixth graders explore the concept of probability. In this probability lesson, 6th graders collaborate to collect spinner data based on the likelihood of spinning odd and even numbers. Students complete 2 other probability activities and...

Students create a classroom quilt that illustrates the many unique ways that students use math skills.

Middle schoolers examine various triangles and discuss how similar triangles have sides that are proportional. They utilize an ancient Egyptian method to determine the height of a flagpole.
