Middle schoolers use computers and Internet to research specified topics using given sites. They print the researched information, and create a PowerPoint presentation.

Middle schoolers study the Pythagorean Theorem. They describe what it means to square a number. Pupilsuse the Pythagorean Theorem to prove the sides of given triangles, and use geometric pieces of paper to create a right triangle and...

Here are Jack's hours for the week; scholars organize them into a bar graph in this data analysis worksheet. They write the days along the y-axis and hours along the x-axis. Encourage labeling for this. Consider projecting as an...

Counting can be fun and it is always a good idea to begin counting practice with concrete objects. Kindergartners hear the story "Five Little Monkeys," then practice grouping, counting, and documenting (drawing) sets of five. 

Have fun while your class creates a timeline of their lives. They record events before and after they were born on a line with 10 integer pairs consisting of one integer on each side of zero. Many extension activities can be done in...

Students use expanded notation. For this mathematics lesson, students determine the place value of a digit within a whole number. Students use manipulatives, words, and symbols to represent whole numbers.

Students build knowledge about the number relationships between decimals and percents as it relates to converting decimals into percents. In this decimal and percent lesson, students recognize equivalent forms of fractions,...

First graders research strategies for identifying numbers through 100. In this number recognition instructional activity, 1st graders make games, create puzzles,and fill in missing numbers to practice number identification.

Fifth graders explore common factors. In this factorization lesson, 5th graders discover the greatest common factor among two numbers in a game format. Students build on previous knowledge to determine the greatest common factor.

First graders write and illustrate a story for a subtraction problem subtracting from the number ten. Students explore subtraction situations by using counters to represent a familiar number- based literature selection. Students role...

Students review number sets and complete a Venn Diagram for number sets. In this number sets lesson, students review integers, whole numbers, and elements. Students use computers to create a Venn Diagram for number sets. Students...

Students work with fractions. In this improper fractions lesson, students define improper fractions and mixed numbers. Students learn how to change improper fractions to mixed numbers or whole numbers.

Students name and draw fractions by using their fractions circles. In this rational numbers and fraction lesson plan, students name mixed numbers and improper fractions using their fraction circles.

In this addition activity, students add the objects that are in number sentences representing numbers. Students complete 9 problems.

This real-life math problem concentrates on developing the understanding of dividing a unit fraction by a whole number. It allows young scholars to draw out a solution to aid their thinking. The well-written answer sheet describes common...

Your class may believe that geometry is a trial, but they don't know how right they are. A thorough math lesson combines the laws of logic with the laws of geometry. As high schoolers review the work of historical mathematicians and...

Your sixth and seventh graders deepen their understanding of a number line and adding integers in this concrete, hands-on activity. Learners play "Warehouse Puzzle" and then discuss their game strategies and the characteristics...

How many ways can you represent solutions to an equation? Guide your class through the process of solving equations and representing solutions. Solutions are described in words, as a solution set, and graphed on a number line....

Get your frogs hopping by introducing them to the concepts of ratio and proportion. As a class, they perform arithmetic operations using ratios then discover how they represent quantitative relationships. In groups, they write their own...

Four polygons each have a fraction with unlike denominators printed on them. Creative math minds select several shapes to create a design with and then write and solve a math problem involving the addition of all of the fractions...

Sixth graders create note cards to divide multi-digit whole numbers by two-digit numbers and divide decimals that represent money by whole numbers in a simpler and faster fashion. They write the rules and examples of each on the cards...

Young learners compare the relative values of fractions by making physical representations. They fold and label strips of paper that are equal in length to represent "one whole" and the equal parts that fractions represent. Also, they...
