Second graders explain the relative size of fractions using symbolic and concrete representations. Groups of four students play a game which uses cards and unifix cubes. The game helps them get a visual understanding for the 'size' of...

Students, in groups, examine a jar of coins to make both 'guesstimates' and estimates. They compare different estimations and complete a journal entry to summarize their findings.

Second graders choose estimation strategies in real-world problem situations and explain the choice. They work in groups of five using three different estimation methods to find out how many words are on a page of text.

Third graders experiment with, identify, and follow teacher-directed instruction toward understanding two-dimensional geometric shapes found within the environment. Groups of students utilize geoboards to help them explain geometric shapes.

Second graders use geoboards to model polygons and to practice finding lines of symmetry.

Second graders, in pairs, use arrays to explore the relationship between multiplication and division.

Second graders use data analysis skills in order to plan a class party. They graph possible times for the party noting the range for times. They discuss how mathematicians find and use the range to analyze data.

Sixth graders solve two-step equations.

Students examine the rhombi or diamond shape and compare it to the square. Students are challenged to create as many flat rhombus shapes as possible and develop a definition for the rhombus shape in 20 minutes while working in teams of...

Middle schoolers discover how to measure in one and two dimensional space and calculate how much space any object of a given dimension occupies. After a discussion about dimensions, students work with Zome System Creator Kits to build...

Students create a slideshow of multiplication facts using Keynote. Students create slides with a multiplication fact and a picture representation for the multiplication facts from 2 through 5.

Students research the responsibilities, required education, remuneration and demand for different of varied careers in math, science and technology. They access websites which are imbedded in this plan in order to do their research.

Sixth graders record the weight of themselves and 3 family over a week, and then use that data to compile 2 bar graphs and 4 line graphs and answer a series of questions.

Ninth graders calculate the distance between two points.

Eighth graders convert the price of US stamps to those of a number of foreign currencies. They use conversion charts to make the changes.

Seventh graders collect data, graph and analyze it.

Students complete a unit of lessons on water as a limited resource. They conduct Internet research, record information in electronic journals, utilize spreadsheets, conserve water and record the results, and conduct water safety tests on...

Young scholars analyze and discuss various sculptures by the artist Andrea Arroyo. They discuss ways artists use symbols to express abstract ideas, design and create a plasticine plaque, and write a journal response.

Students identify the inside parts of a dog salmon in English and Athabascan. They weigh each part of the salmon and determine the percentage of the whole that the part represents.

Learners study uncollectible accounts expense. They analyze an adjustment for uncollectible accounts expense, enter an adjustment for uncollectible accounts expense on a Work Sheet, and post the entry to write off an uncollectible A/R.

Fourth graders are introduced to how to properly create a grid site. In groups, they use Cartesian coordinates to establish the boundaries for the grid and photograph the location of artifacts. They exchange their photos with another...

Young scholars mark seconds, minutes, hours, days, etc. on class timetable report to keep track of time spent on Uninterrupted Silent Reading.

Students perform a food chain simulation to determine what happens when a food chain is broken.

Students create factor trees.  In this prime and composite lesson, students model fractions using tiles.  They create factor trees and identify prime and composite numbers.  Students use grid paper and tiles to model...
