Second graders analyze the likelihood of simple events.

Students try to figure out the strategies to the game Noughts. Students logic must play a part in the process of the game. Students apply the symmetries of regular polygons. Students devise ways to critically follow a chain of reasoning.

Learners practice graphing relationships between variables by studying topics such as exponential growth and decay. They conduct a series of numerical experiments using a computer model and a variety of physical experiments using mold,...

Students record data, make observations, and share in experimentation and discussion of numerical experiments.

Students play a probability game, then design and complete a probability problem concerning changing odds.

Students rotate through a variety of Olympic activities and record their results. Teams rotate through stations and practice units of measurement.

First graders measure a plant using unifix cubes and record their measurements on a class chart.

Eighth graders collect data from Bottle Biology compost columns and record using Excel spreadsheet.

Learners determine the area of two objects by superimposing one on the other. They compare and order the area of different shapes by covering a larger shape with similar smaller ones. They complete these activities as different stations.

Students need to be able to calculate the volume and surface area of a cuboid as well as present a systematic list of results in order to justify the minimum case. The use of three factors of 100 is also important.

Students interpret information and results in context while using words and symbols to generalize patterns. They use symmetry and angle properties of polygons to solve practical problems and identifying invariant properties under...

Students problem solve logic problems. They complete a worksheet using dice as a manipulative. They decide on a problem solving strategy, solve the problem, and write up the solution.

Eighth graders find connections between numbers in a table; use Pythagoras' theorem in a general algebraic form; and measure accurately from a scale drawing to find a method that might enable the helicopter to land inside a rectangular...

Second graders make, name, and describe, using their own language and the language of geometry, everyday shapes and objects. They create and discuss geometric patterns which repeat (show translation), or which have rotational or...

Learners begin to recognize that objects have many measurable attributes. They examine how to identify and accurately measure attributes of common objects. Also Students report their measurement findings.

Students complete the following problem by using logic: Three couples, the Smiths, the Jones and the Browns wanted to go to the Brown's yacht that was moored a little way out in the lake. There was a dinghy to take them to the yacht but...

Students attempt a problem that Students has the potential to have more than one solution. Hence the problem is accessible to a wide range of students. The problem is essentially about finding patterns and this is typical of a number of...

Students use logic and reasoning to answer problems. Through interpreting information and results in the context to examine patterns. They examine how to solve the problems using strategy in mathematics.

Students use Internet software, The Difference Bar, to work out the difference between two numbers by breaking numbers into parts. Students use mental strategies to work out the difference between any 2 two-digit numbers. Students...
