Here is a wonderful lesson designed for young mathematicians. In it, they employ simple addition and subtraction strategies in order to solve word problems. There are some excellent activity sheets embedded in the plan to make the...

Students practice their multiplication facts by reinforcement and repetition. Students write facts in their math journals, and use labeled soccer ball and deck of cards to practice multiplying by "number of the day." Play continues until...

The class practices plotting points in a Cartesian coordinate system and a Polar coordinate system. They convert from one system to the other to get coordinates to plot. Then they play a Tic-Tac-Toe or Connect Four game to have a...

What does translating points on a number line have to do with solving inequalities? Young mathematicians first learn about translations of points on a number line, and then use this information to solve linear inequalities in one variable.

A great language arts lesson designed for emerging readers awaits your class. Rhyming words are the focus. Learners play an interactive learning game on the computer that helps them to understand words that rhyme. As with all of these...

Learners find the least common multiple of several given numbers using Cuisenaire rods. Previously taught math skills are reinforced by using Cuisenaire rod games, puzzles and or activities.

Second graders ask questions and design an experiment to explore different spinners in "The Leap Frog" board game. They conduct their experiment, collect information and interpret the results using a graph.

Third and fourth graders engage in a game using visual symbols, auditory responses and tactile stimuli to further their understanding of subtraction. A worksheet imbedded in this plan explains how to teach the game.

Learners identify and categorize different polygons. In this polygons lesson plan, students research and identify properties of polygons,  identify different polygon shapes, and categorize different triangles and quadrilaterals.

Students play a game to discover simple patterns. In this geometric designs lesson, students use a game board and counters to represent survivals, deaths, and births. They explore simple patterns for several generations.

Students explore a calendar. In this calendar and math instructional activity, students view a video clip about using a calendar. Students participate in a game in which a game board is used to identify days of the week, dates, and months.

Students explore the concept of graphing ordered pairs. In this graphing ordered pairs lesson, students work in teams to play a version of Connect 4. Students use a Cartesian grid with values -4 to 4 as their Connect 4 board. Students...

Help learners explore the concepts of more than, less than, and equal to. They participate in a button attribute activity, play a game using buttons and a die, draw the sets of buttons in their journal, and play button bingo.

Order in the math class! Scholars learn to evaluate expressions using the order of operations. A game has them rolling number cubes to determine numbers to use when evaluating.

Young scholars compile statistics from high school or other football team and construct a spreadsheet on which to record their findings. Using Chart Wizard to analyze the data, they construct charts and graphs for a visual display of the...

In this math worksheet, students examine 16 boxes, each with a division problem. Each problem has a 2 digit number divided by a one digit number and there is a missing number in the dividend. There are no directions about what students...

Students, using laminated math flash cards, play a review game with a partner. Also using Polyspots, they run, walk, or skip to the board with their answers.

Ready, set, go! Individuals practice converting rational numbers between fractions, decimals, and percents. A speed game has teams match the three forms of rational numbers on a number line.

Students practice adding and subtracting integers.  For this practice adding and subtracting integers lesson, students play a board game where they role two dice to move their token.  Students roll a sign dice and a number dice...

Learners first determine the slope-intercept and standard forms of inequalities given graphs, and then determine key features of the graphs.

Animals on Board! Stuart J. Murphy introduces scholars to composed numbers in preparation for writing and drawing true or false number sentences. A game of Bear in the Cave challenges pupils to locate a missing addend. Sorting...

Who says learning can't be enjoyable? Your class will love identifying the x axis and y axis of a coordinate plane and plotting various points when it's dressed up in the guise of a Battleship game. Rather than sets of the actual game,...

Young scholars gather appropriate information for simple statistical analysis. Then they will calculate probability working with a piece of literature that makes this lesson ideal for teaching across the whole curriculum.
