Learners are introduced to dividing by fractions in a visual way. Setting up groups from the information in the problem allows them to see what we divide and why. Use with the previous lesson, which can be found in Additional Materials,...

Dividing with fractions can be a confusing task to some, but the activity illustrates how to make groups out of the problem and look at it visually. Use this problem with the activity in the Additional Materials section to practice this...

When US citizens travel throughout the world, they often need to know how to convert temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Young mathematicians practice applying the formula as well as other algebraic equations as part of a...

Connect geometric sequences to exponential functions. The 26th installment of a 35-part module has scholars model situations using geometric sequences. Writing recursive and explicit formulas allow scholars to solve problems in context.

Hands-on investigation of Riemann sums becomes possible without intensive arithmetic gymnastics with this interactive lesson plan. Learners manipulate online graphing tools to develop and test theories about right, left, and...

Come take a ride on the space bus! Scholars go on an imaginary trip to pick up their peers from the inner and outer planets while reinforcing math skills. First, learners round decimals to identify each planets' distance from Earth....

What do Sherlock Holmes and geometry have in common? Why, it is a matter of deductive reasoning as the class learns how to justify each step of a problem. Pupils then present a known fact to ensure that their decision is correct.

This is great go-to activity for those spring or fall days when the weather beckons your geometry class outside. Learners start with a small tree, devising strategies to accurately estimate the leaf count. They must then tackle the...

Young mathematicians solve arithmetic and simple algebraic equations using properties of real numbers, equality, and inequality. Justifying the procedures is their next task. They solve a problem involving linear inequality and justify...

Ten word problems provide practice in estimating. This worksheet is intended to accompany a specific text and lesson; however, it is useful without those resources.

In this decimal division worksheet, students solve 16 problems in which decimal numbers to the hundreds place are divided by other decimal numbers. Problems may need to be rewritten in an easier form as they are presented horizontally.

Does the volume formula work even if the measurements are not whole numbers? Class members work simple problems to find that the formula (area of the base) × (height) works for all prisms, independent of measurements and shape.

In this sequences worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 3 different types of problems. First, they complete the missing numbers and determine the term-to-term rule. Then, students find the nth term of each sequence and draw the next...

In this fractions worksheet, students complete word problems containing fractions and mixed numbers. Students complete 12 problems.

In this whole numbers and decimals worksheet, learners solve 40 problems in which whole numbers and decimals are added, subtracted, multiplied and divided. This page can be done on paper but was intended to be an online activity.

Fifth graders complete a mental arithmetic race worksheet while reviewing the associated concepts. In this mental math lesson plan, 5th graders complete as much of the associated worksheet as they are able to in one minute. They review...

In this math worksheet, students solve a variety of arithmetic algorithms. Students use multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction skills to solve the problems.

A jam-packed instructional activity has all the topics you would teach in an Algebra II class with a variety of question styles. Starting with function notation and ending with geometric sequences, there really is something for...

Investigate multiplication problem solving strategies by working with base 10 blocks. Learners decompose problems with a Merlin the Magician theme. Multiple resources are provided.

Test young mathematicians' knowledge with an assessment aligned to California's fifth grade state standards. The exam covers a multitude of concepts including fractions and decimals, positive and negative numbers, measurement; and...

Learn about butterflies and place value in a series of interdisciplinary lessons! With several worksheets that reference butterfly facts in word problems, kids can practice science and math in one activity. Additional worksheets are...

What are some basic features of functions? By looking at functions in graphs, tables, and equations, pupils compare them and find similarities and differences in general features. They use attributes such as intervals of...

The fifth portion of the 25-part series introduces probabilities calculated from outcomes that are not equally likely. Class members use tables to calculate probabilities of events, add outcome's probabilities, and find...

Investigate the Remainder Theorem in this algebra lesson. Explore the relationship between the remainders of polynomial division and the function. Each of the four problems gets progressively more complicated. This might be a great...
