Young scholars discuss recognizing when kind deeds are performed. They design and construct a castle-like structure to place notes of appreciation for their classmates. Castles include a dungeon for "grumpy" notes as well. Once castle is...

Students discover the benefits of kind acts by dissecting the word itself.  For this vocabulary lesson, students utilize the letters in the word "kindness" to create other words which they record.  Students figure out what...

Young scholars become familiar with various kinds of apples and the tree they grow on.  In this Apple tree lesson plan, students recognize the differences between apples and can identify what happens to apples in different...

Financial literacy is generally focused on personal spending and saving, but consider an opportunity to talk to your pupils about how charitable giving can also factor into money management and how it can enhance life for both...

New-to-school learners create a fall quilt consisting of three different paper geometric quilt squares. They use various geometric shapes that when assembled will form a scarecrow, pumpkin, and a crow. Assembly will require sorting...

Students construct three different graphs-a line graph, a bar graph, and a circle graph.  In this graphing lesson, students use different graphs to display various data that they collect. 

Students apply math skills to determining how much corn seed to plant in 100 acres. They compute the amount of weed killer needed and after totaling how many bushels per acre they harvest, they calculate their profits.

Count and compare numbers and fractions using "greater than" and "less than." Learners count on by 2s and 10s and represent the end number with base ten blocks, counters, and cups. They use circle stickers to illustrate fractions and...

Junior geometers use hands-on manipulatives to explore and describe the properties and attributes of a fundamental polygon, the triangle. They learn different kinds of angles and their measurements. This well-written lesson plan provides...

Students recognize things that are the same and things that are different. They use shape, size, numbers and color, for recognition. They make fish with different shapes/colors on them and 'fish' for the kind of fish that displays the...

Students discover what happens to their trash and garbage once it is collected off of the curb. In groups, they classify garbage and waste into seven different categories and estimate how much waste is created in each one. Using the...

Fifth graders classify triangles. In this triangle lesson, 5th graders learn about the characteristics that make up a triangle. They are instructed through video, PowerPoint slides, and teacher-led demonstrations.

In this fractions worksheet, students complete different kinds of fraction problems. Students complete 50 problems total where they solve, shade, and put numbers into a chart.

Elementary schoolers use their understanding of place value to develop a strategy for a number game. In this lesson, pupils use place value to play "100 or Bust" and figure out a good winning strategy. These kinds of math games are...

Young learners listen to a read aloud of Gail Gibbons book, Apples and the story A Red House With No Windows and No Doors. They compare characteristics of a number of kinds of apples, graph them and create a apple print picture. Learners...

A geometry game that resembles Battleship is the foundation for hide and seek where "hiders" draw shapes on coordinate planes and "seekers" must guess the shape and its location based on questions and clues. Reproducible, paper-sized...

Combine measurement, following directions, physics, and art with one fun activity. Learners read a set of instruction to create three different kinds of paper airplanes. They measure, fold, and fly the planes, and record data and answer...

Determine the class favorite. The statistics lesson plan has pupils collect, display, and analyze data. Pairs rank four kinds of candy based on their individual preferences. Working as an entire class, learners determine a way to display...

Not only is pattern recognition an essential skill for young children to develop, it's also a lot of fun to teach! Over the course of this lesson, class members participate in shared readings, perform small group...

Learners explore, discover, compare, and contrast arithmetic and geometric sequences in this collaborative, hands-on activity. They build and analyze growing patterns to distinguish which kind of sequence is represented by a set of data...

Address any kind of math concept or problem with a series of problem-solving strategies. Over 12 days of different activities and increasing skills, learners practice different ways to solve problems, check their answers, and reflect...

While it may seem incredibly obvious to the geometry student that congruent sides make congruent triangles, the proving of this by definition actually takes a bit of work. This exercise steps the class through this kind of proof by...

What kind of functions have holes in their graphs? Here, the teacher guides the class on how to use the simplified function of a rational function to aid in the graphing of the original rational function. T-tables are used in order...

Noah didn't construct this kind of arc. High school scholars first explore how angles can be formed in circles. They then learn relationships between angles and arcs by conducting an exploratory activity where they position and draw arcs...
