In this polynominoes instructional activity, students solve 9 different types of polynominoes problems. First, they identify that a polynominoe is a polygon made from squares of the same size and connected to each square. Then, students...

Students describe geographical places through art, music, writing, and math. They compile information in booklets which may be published.

Learners celebrate the 100th day of school with a variety of math and language arts activities based on the number 100. They make books, count objects, and draw their predictions about life 100 years from now. They also estimate the...

Students, using a map, drawing or aerial view of a pond, represent the shape of the pond using simple geometric shapes or fractions of those shapes. They identify the numerator and denominator in each fraction created.

Learners explore equal fractions in relationship to a whole unit. They fold strips of paper into halves, thirds, etc. and compare them to the first strip which represents a "whole unit." Fractional parts are identified and compared.

Students explore adding 2-digit numbers. For this math lesson, students identify 2-digit numbers and use base ten blocks to practice adding. Students use addition to break a code.

In this multiples of 10 worksheet, students sharpen their math skills as they learn to use multiples of 10 to help them with division and then try the 2 extra practice activities.

Kindergarteners arrange manipulatives or everyday objects in groups of one through five. They identify groups seen in pictures of nature and compare same numbers of different objects.

Students practice saying their numbers and identifying the words. They use whole numbers and decimals to practice grouping numbers into different categories. They write the word of the number they are shown.

Pupils work in small groups to explore spatial relationships while building with color cubes. Students must identify positions of blocks to partner, recreate a model, and color a sketch of their structure appropriately.

Second graders compare and contrast gymnastics in 1859, 1900 and today. Students contrast differences in gymnastics for boys and girls today. Students pretend that they are interviewing a famous gymnast and write up their interview....

Students investigate energy-saving window treatments. In this environmental lesson plan, students research how energy-saving windows work by conducting an experiment using a thermometer and graphing data. Students identify why...

Learners use index cards, counting cubes, and their own understanding to identify how division problems can be solved by using multiplication. In this division lesson plan, students use their multiplication skills to solve division...

Which water creature is the biggest? Youngsters look at an image of a big shell, then draw a bigger shell next to it. They do the same for a big fish. Next, learners practice with the superlative as they circle the biggest duck and frog....

This basic handout would be good for skills practice or a review of parallel and perpendicular lines. Review the definitions, then practice writing equations of lines that pass through a specific point and are either parallel or...

Seventh graders identify the use of a function.They are asked to describe the input and output of a function. Students also identify different aspects of the coordinate system and represent functions in a visual graph.

Seventh graders explore lines of symmetry, congruent polygons and patterns. They listen to "The Seasons Sewn," observe a PowerPoint presentation, and identify congruent polygons and visual patterns. Through an internet activity, 7th...

Students use clock arithmetic to find remainders. In this patterns in math instructional activity, students explore the relationship between clock arithmetic and remainders using a computer applet. Students also identify patterns in...

Students examine the art form of Mexican paper cutting and discover how to make a pattern. After reading the book "Look What Came From Mexico", they discuss Mexican folk art and view some samples. Individually they create a Mexican...

In this lengths, areas and shapes instructional activity, students explore overlapping and non-overlapping patterns. They identify the number of objects in a pattern, determine how the pattern may be folded to create additional patterns,...

In this probability and statistics activity, students work with a family member to construct graphs based on real life data. The two page activity contains three questions. Answers are not included.

Students create a butterfly displaying a mirror image of itself to show that it is symmetrical. In this symmetry lesson plan, students go over symmetry in different shapes and identify patterns in butterflies.

Students identify patterns found in nature. In this algebra lesson, students model situation in nature using fractals. They investigate biological geometric structures and draw conclusion based on geometric concepts.

Fifth graders devise and use problem solving strategies to solve a post office math problem. They describe what it means for a sequence to carry on infinitely, identify patterns in linear combinations of numbers, and discuss the amounts...
