In this estimate using tens worksheet, 2nd graders match three sets of toys with 3 jars by estimating using tens and reading the label on the jar.

Learners complete various small group activities to classify items and determine the types of combinations that can be made with these items. In the second lesson, students create menus for a restaurant to help them gain money sense and...

Students investigate geometric shapes through volume and dimensions. For this geometry lesson, students measure, weigh, and calculate sizes and volume based on estimation and calculation. They review important vocabulary related to...

Ninth graders identify numbers as rational or irrational. Using calculators estimation, and factoring methods, 9th graders compute the square root of numbers. They graph numbers in sequential order and round numbers integers to the...

In this probability learning exercise, learners complete an activity in which they then throw the die 50 times and record the number of even and odd outcomes. Prior to throwing their die, they make an estimation of how many even and odds...

For this comparing amounts worksheet, students read the word problem and decide if amounts should be used in liters or milliliters. Students complete 6 problems and complete 18 more liter and milliliter estimation problems.

In this estimation worksheet, students estimate 7 given fractions to the nearest whole number. Answers are included on page 2.

Third graders find the perimeter of a polygon. In this measurement lesson, 3rd graders use yardsticks to measure straight-lined objects to the nearest 1/2 inch. Student choose a "mystery object," find the perimeter, and record it on the...

In this estimation worksheet, students estimate numbers of items shown in pictures, then circle given groups of items, count and write totals. 

Students predict the-outcome of an event. In this algebra lesson plan, students compare and contrast the probability of an event occurring. They calculate the odds of a simple event and make estimation.

In this estimation worksheet, students estimate a set of 10 numbers to the nearest 10. A reference website for additional resources is given.

Students apply estimation strategies and proportional reasoning to determine a scale comparing the planetary bodies to Earth. They convert measurements of time and distance using scientific notation. Both the metric and customary units...

Fifth graders review adding, subtracting, multiplication and division of fractions and decimals through a variety of activities and exercises.

Eighth graders analyze how to use statistics, change fractions to decimal, and graph their statistics. They draft players from Major League Baseball eams and chose on player for each position, including 3 oufielders and one designated...

Middle schoolers make a rocket out of paper. They follow the given instructions and test to see if it will fly. They write about the experiment and are given the opportunity to change their varibles to make their rocket work.

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

Kids gain a deeper understanding of mathematical symbols, by playing an interactive game using flash cards. They complete an attached Missing Symbols Worksheet, flash card and an assessment are also included.

With minimal setup and maximum freedom, young geometers are encouraged to think outside the box on a seemingly simple application problem. Though the task seems simple, measuring a given paper clip and finding how many 10 meters can...

Lead a discussion on the similarities between the properties of area and the properties of volume. Using upper and lower approximations, pupils arrive at the formula for the volume of a general cylinder. 

Reduce variability for more accurate statistics. Through simulation, learners examine sample data and calculate a sample mean. They understand that increasing the number of samples creates results that are more representative of the...

Mathematicians need to know that not all numbers are rational. We approximate irrational number with rational numbers. That is why a calculator may be misleading. This task give learners an opportunity to see how rounding a number and...

Exactly how fair are the board games children grow up playing? Young mathematicians investigate this questions as they work their way through this five-lesson series on basic probability. 

If we stack up all the cross sections of a figure, does it create the figure? Pupils make the connection between the complete set of cross sections and the solid. They then view videos in order to see how 3D printers use Cavalerie's...

Help mathematicians estimate how many seeds are in a given vegetable or fruit. They are divided into pairs and estimate the amount of seeds in a whole fruit without seeing the inside. They then cut the fruit or vegetable in half and...
