Bring your young mathematicians into the fold. Scholars conduct an activity folding paper to see the relationship between the number of folds and the number of resulting layers in the 23rd installment of a 36-part module. The results of...

Students explore equivalent fractions. In this fractions lesson plan, students use strips of paper to recognize equivalent fractions. Students may complete an online activity on an interactive whiteboard as an assessment.

Fifth graders practice solving word problems using highlighted strategies. In this word problem lesson, 5th graders brainstorm and  use words as clues that indicate the math operations that will be used to solve problems. They use...

Students examine the organic and inorganic components of soil. In this environmental science lesson, students identify the factors that influence soil formation. They collect soil samples, conduct tests, and analyze the results.

Students explore speed by calculating the average speed of several snowmobiles, and predicting which of them is the fastest. They watch a race to verify their calculations.

Students explore algebraic concepts using real life situations.  In this equations lesson, students develop strategies to solve missing number problems. Students participate in a board game based on algebraic equations.

Students construct aluminum foil boats that float while holding the greatest number of pennies. They investigate the concept of water displacement, record their results, and watch a Bill Nye video on buoyancy.

Students experience how to illustrate some of the many connections between number and geometry. Through this 2-3 day focus on square numbers and triangular numbers, students make connections among mathematical topics.

For this math worksheet, young scholars will work with a coach to find the total area of a tree-house. Students will follow a step-by-step process and notes are provided for the coach.

Students plan a trip.  In this trip planning lesson, students use a map to find where they would like to visit with a pretend family of 4. They get a specific amount of money and time and need to decide where they will stay and what...

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

Fourth graders investigate the principles and uses of gears, and examine how gears can be used to alter the direction of motion or the speed of an object. They observe two cars with different sized wheels roll down an inclined plane,...

For this substitution formula worksheet, students solve 9 various types of problems related to applying the substitution formula. First, they use a number line to add or subtract negative integers. Then, students substitute numbers for...

Prisms are the focus of this geometry worksheet. Students count the number of parts of a prism and chart 26 answers. Vocabulary such as: "faces," "edges," and "verticies" are taught. A well-designed math worksheet!

In this quantities in chemistry instructional activity, students solve 13 review problems about percent composition, significant digits, the mole, simple and molecular formulas, balancing equations, stoichiometry, limiting reagents and...

Students research and collect data regarding temperature changes for a specific location and find the mean, median, and mode for their data. For this climate change lesson, students choose a location to research and collect data...

Students calculate probability. In this lesson on probability, students use given data to calculate to chances of a given event occurring. Many of the calculations in this lesson are applicable to daily life.

Practice discovering and explaining patterns in multiplication tables. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints. CCSS.Math.Content.3.OA.D.9 Identify...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this learning module, students relate division patterns to the patterns in a multiplication table. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem [1:21] and a set...

Students will follow the directions to explore the patterns in a multiplication table.

This multiplication table has multiplication facts through 9 X 9 and also lets students practice them.

This multiplication table is a 15 x 15 grid. It can be used as a student resource online or as a printout.

This teacher-student reference provides a 50-by-50 multiplication table as a PDF file that prints on four pages.

The goal is to look for structure and identify patterns in the multiplication table and then try to find the mathematical explanation for this. Aligns with CCSS.Math.Content.3.OA.D.9 Identify arithmetic patterns, and explain them using...
