Some of these may look congruent, but examine them closely. There are three sets of shapes here for scholars to analyze as they circle all the congruent figures. For each set, there are three congruent shapes which are oriented in...

An informative video and handout provide the basic information needed to reflect any pre-image across either of the axes on the coordinate plane. The printed resource provides a preview of reflecting across lines other than an axis....

Pupils determine the theoretical probability of winning a game of marbles. Individuals compare the theoretical probability to experimental probability for the same game. They continue on to compare two different probability games.

Pupils study angle measurements between different types of angles associated with parallel lines and transversals. The independent practice asks pupils to identify the types of angles in a diagram and to determine the measure of...

Number towers use addition or multiplication to ensure each level is equal. While this is common in factoring, it is often not used with algebraic equations. Solving these six questions relies on problem solving skills and being able to...

Line up this lesson when introducing symmetry to your young mathematicians. Watch how two figures are introduced to different ways of folding and identifying whether or not they are actually symmetrical. Finish the lesson with a...

Pupils analyze a pattern of conference tables to determine the number of tables needed and the number of people that can be seated for a given size. Individuals develop general formulas for the two growing number patterns and...

Individuals learn how to plot rational numbers on the number line in the sixth instructional activity of a 21-part module. They identify appropriate units and determine opposites of rational numbers.

Solve 10 festive word problems during the holiday season! Santa and his team need your class's help to decorate, sort toys, organize reindeer, and bake toffee with multiplication and division skills.

Graph A goes with equation C, but table B. The short assessment task requires class members to match graphs with their corresponding tables, equations, and verbalized rules. Pupils then provide explanations on the process they used to...

It's time to show what they know! An assessment review concludes a five-part series about linear functions. It covers all concepts featured throughout the unit, including linear equations, graphs, tables, and problem solving.

If you keep rolling a die, you'll roll a five exactly one-sixth of the time—right? A probability lesson prompts young mathematicians to roll a die 100 times and use the data to calculate empirical probabilities. They then compare...

Should the standard deviation be used for all distributions? Pupils know that the median is a better description of the center for skewed distributions; therefore, they will need a variability measure about the median for those...

It's opposite day! The fourth installment of a 21-part module teaches scholars about opposites of integers and of zero. Number lines and real-world situations provide an entry point to this topic.

Have fun while building the number sense of young mathematicians with this list of ten-frame learning games. From developing cardinality and counting skills to learning place value and basic addition strategies, ten-frames are excellent...

What happens if the exponent is negative? The resource takes a look at a problem two different ways, with one resulting in a negative exponent. The approach provides an explanation of how to evaluate negative exponents. 

This resource provides learners with three different methods for solving long division problems. The same problem is used to show each of the methods, which include guess and check, repeated subtraction, and the classic method. This may...

Explore nonlinear systems through graphs and algebra. High schoolers begin by examining the different types of quadratic functions and their possible intersections. They then use algebraic methods to solve systems containing various...

Uncover the relationship between factoring quadratics and higher degree polynomials. Learners develop their factoring skills through repetition. A comprehensive lesson begins with quadratics and shows how to use the same patterns to...

The next time you read a magazine or watch the news, make note of how many graphs you see because they are everywhere! Here, scholars collect, enter, and graph data using computers. The graphs are then analyzed to aid in discussion of...

In this recognizing and matching numbers worksheet, students draw a circle around the bunnies from each hutch and then draw a line from the bunnies to the hutches to show where they belong. Students fill in the missing numbers in 5...

Fourth graders find new names for fractions.  In this equivalent fractions lesson plan, 4th graders use manipulatives to model fractions and rename them. Students recognize that the new names show equivalent fractions....

The next lesson in a math series builds off the previous one in which learners estimated fraction amounts using fraction bars. Here, pupils view equivalent fractions with unlike denominators using fraction bars. Lastly,...
