These equations are missing numbers, and scholars must process multiple operations to complete them. There are addition, multiplication, and division problems here, each missing an addend, divisor, or factor. After completing 24 of these...

Bring out the pegboards for this one! As you introduce multiplication, explain it as sets of objects using these visual practice problems. Learners look at eight pegboards with varying rows filled. For each, they fill in two sentences...

These fact families need to be completed. Scholars use addition and subtraction to complete four number sentences for each set of three numbers. The sentences are all part of the number set's fact family, and demonstrate the commutative...

For this algebra worksheet, learners use the Zero Product Property to solve polynomial equations by factoring.  Application problems are included.  The one page interactive worksheet contains fifty-four problems.  The...

In this polynomials worksheet, students solve and complete 20 different problems that include multiplication. First, they multiply the first terms of each binomial. Then, students multiply the outside terms and then the inside terms....

Properly teach properties with three activities that allow learners to investigate properties of real numbers. The resource covers the identity properties for addition and multiplication, the inverse property for multiplication, and the...

Here's an assessment task that's better than watching a show. Young mathematicians solve word problems involving multiplication and division with equal groups. They must find the total number of attendees on a trip to a theater based on...

Teach about properties properly. Individuals investigate the commutative and identity properties for both addition and multiplication. They see that the properties hold true for all values by using substitution to test out several examples.

Matrix multiplication can seem random to pupils. Here's a instructional activity that uses a real-life example situation to reinforce the purpose of matrix multiplication. Learners discover how to multiply matrices and relate the process...

Polynomial multiplication and factoring go hand in hand. Why not teach them together. This resource begins with an area model for distributing a monomial and then connects the process to factoring the GCF. Learners then advance to...

Solutions for linear equations create solution sets. Pupils watch a video on solving multi-step linear equations. They then solve equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign, combining like terms and the distributive...

What in the world is the zeroth power? Examine the patterns of exponents as they apply to the zeroth power. Scholars apply the zero property to simple exponential expressions in this fourth lesson in a series of 15. The examples include...

Provide two views of multiplication. The introduction to an area model application has two modes. One mode shows the area of simple multiplication up to 12 by 12. The second mode shows how area models can be partitioned leading to the...

Do properties of equations hold true for inequalities? Teach solving inequalities through the theme of properties. Your class discovers that the multiplication property of equality doesn't hold true for inequalities when multiplying by a...

A Christmas-themed math game prompts partners to find a multiplication fact on the board, say the fact, and cover it with chips. The last person to cover the last multiplication fact wins!

Break it down to solve it. Learners watch a video on how to factor out the greatest common factor for algebraic expressions. They see how to use factoring and the zero product property to solve polynomial equation and practice their...

Number crunchers sharpen their math skills as they solve 30 problems requiring them to multiply two-digit numbers by two-digit numbers. Assign this as homework or use it as an assessment after practicing the skill together in class.

Help learners get their facts in line to build and solve complicated linear equations and inequalities. Pupils build upon their knowledge of solving basic equations and inequalities to solve more complex ones. Individuals work with...

In this equations and inequalities worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 14 different multiple choice problems. First, they name an example of the commutative property of addition. Then, students use the distance formula to determine...

Simplify your life by using a resource on simplifying square roots. Pupils review square roots and calculate values of given radical expressions using a calculator. The lesson plan concludes by having them consider the results to develop...

Show the class how to find the factors of numbers. They use a variety of strategies, including unifix cubes, to find the factors of a whole number. This resource includes clear procedure to follow. Included are an anticipatory set,...

Students explore fact families. In this multiplication lesson, students use a multiplication table to find the answers to several multiplication equations. Students form fact families from each completed equation.
