Students design, make and appraise a model wheeled vehicle that is capable of carrying a small load. This activity is part of the unit `Wheels in motion'.

Young scholars find patterns relating the lengths of the sides of squares to their areas. In this squares and square roots lesson, students draw squares and find their areas. They estimate the sides of square when given the area. Young...

First graders practice rounding to the nearest hundred and tens place. In this rounding activity, 1st graders watch a video on and discuss the process of rounding to the nearest hundreds place with the teacher's guidance. Students...

In this estimating worksheet, students review how to estimate and round numbers. Students then estimate the three number addition problems by rounding the numbers to the nearest hundred. Students then find the exact answer. Students...

In this math learning exercise, students will round number between 100 and 1,000 to the nearest hundred. There are about 100 numbers.

In this math worksheet, students will round numbers to the nearest hundred. The numbers are between 100 and 1,000. There are about 100 problems.

In this rounding activity, 6th graders round 2, 3, and 4 digit numbers to the nearest hundred. Students complete 30 problems on this activity.

In this math worksheet, students solve seven riddles. Each riddle describes a number and involves rounding. Students round numbers in the riddle to find the solution.

In this money and change worksheet, students read about multiplying with money, then solve 4 problems, estimating first. Students then study 3 charts and write number sentences.

What if you don't have theoretical probabilities with which to create probability distributions? The 11th installment of a 21-part module has scholars collecting data through a survey. The results of the survey provide empirical data to...

Don't leave your classes vulnerable in their calculations! Help them understand the importance of calculating a margin of error to represent the variability in their sample mean. 

Come take a ride on the space bus! Scholars go on an imaginary trip to pick up their peers from the inner and outer planets while reinforcing math skills. First, learners round decimals to identify each planets' distance from Earth....

When is it a good idea to use estimation? Learn about estimation and rounding with a reading comprehension lesson. After kids read a passage about estimation, they answer five comprehension questions on the other side of the page.

Your task today: count all the trees on a tree farm. To complete the assignment, learners first estimate the number of trees on a tree farm using random sampling. To improve their own response they then evaluate provided...

Challenge your class to use straight lines when estimating the length of a curve. An engaging interactive allows individuals to place line segments one after another along the arc. Learners determine that the more lines used, the better...

Make sure there is enough ice cream on hand. Learners try to find out how much ice cream to buy for a sports event. Scholars use a pie chart showing the percent of a sample of people who like different flavors of ice cream. Using the...

Develop probability distributions from simulations. Young mathematicians use simulations to collect data. They use the data to draw graphs of probability distributions for the random variable in question.

Given populations of the five Northwestern states, learners create a circle graph. Using the data and the pie chart, they make comparisons between the populations of the states. Finally, the pupils determine how the chart will change...

The more rectangles, the better the estimate. Using the interactive, pupils explore estimating the area under a curve using left-hand sums. Learners respond to challenge questions on how to get better estimates using the same technique.

Upper elementary and middle schoolers change six fractions to decimals. The fractions involve one and two digit numbers. Pupils divide the larger number into the smaller, continuing the computations for six decimal places so they can...

Which unit of measurement would you use? As your scholars begin to understand measuring, it's important they become familiar with the various units. They examine five object images and match them to one of five units: meters,...

Fourth graders complete math problems where they round numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, or thousand. In this rounding lesson plan, 4th graders explain how to round the problems they solve.

Third graders review rounding to the nearest ten. In this rounding activity, 3rd graders use a hundred chart to help them in rounding to the nearest ten. Additionally, students practice rounding on the computer.

First graders round to estimate greater sums. After a lecture/demo, 1st graders complete a web lesson on estimation. They practice rounding to the nearest hundred using a restaurant take-out menu.
