Seven activities make up a collection of supplemental materials to reinforce graphing on a coordinate plane. Worksheet objectives include plotting coordinates within single and four quadrants, measuring straight and...

This can be used as a critical thinking exercise in congruence or as a teaching tool when first introducing the concept. Four octagons are arranged in such a way that a square is formed in the middle. With this information, geometry...

There are more than 600,000 asteroids in our solar system. Pupils analyze images of two asteroids in order to determine if they are the same age. They count craters for each asteroid and compare numbers. 

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson plan, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson plan includes a reading...

In this math literacy paper, students find the solution to counting to ten in various patterns. They can practice counting horizontally or vertically.

Kindergarteners explore various representations and uses of numbers to develop number sense. They participate in an activity and arrange patterns into groups. Students compare the sets and describe the objects in each set.

In this quilt patterns worksheet, 2nd graders analyze the pattern in two rows of 12 shapes. Students continue the pattern in the empty grid to complete the quilt design.

Young learners speed their way toward fluent reading with a hands-on consonant digraph activity. Using the numbered grid included in this resource, children roll a die and choose a word corresponding to the number they rolled. They...

Students perform activities to recreate the exploration of the sea bottom. They attach magnets to the bottom of the remote controlled car to see how many camouflaged objects it can pick up. As a class, students examine the results of...

Students investigate lines and patterns. In this line and pattern lesson, students discuss types of lines and work on grids. They draw a picture very lightly before filling it in with the pattern they made in the grid.

In this number square worksheet, students enter in the missing numbers in the number square. Teachers use the worksheet generator to select specific options when creating this worksheet.

High schoolers examine the grid in terms of a method of organization in our society as well as graphic design. In this "Making and Breaking the Grid" instructional activity, students design solutions to common problems and draw...

Rational, irrational, real, natural. All these words can refer to numbers. Who knew? Learners use the Visual Thesaurus and a semantic feature analysis grid to examine the different attributes of numbers. Step-by-step instructions for...

A comprehensive resource gets fourth grade physical scientists making observations about the period of a pendulum and then applying knowledge to a playground swing. Through seven different stations, they will record observations and...

First graders discover the significance of a number's place value by interactively engaging patterns and two-digit place values. In this mathematics instructional activity, 1st graders complete a 10 by 10 grid to create a number puzzle.

Third graders create polygons with perimeters of 30 centimeters, use the centimeter grid paper to determine the area of each shape, and organize the shapes to make generalizations from the patterns they see.

Second graders find the lines of symmetry in pattern blocks and alphabet letters. In this symmetry instructional activity, 2nd graders discuss what symmetry is, view examples of lines of symmetry and apply what they have learned by...

Get creative juices flowing when you allow groups to figure out a procedure for how to find the area of squares and rectangles. They may use the individual patchwork blocks, or they may design one using the Design Template.

Study various types of mathematical models in this math lesson. Learners calculate the slope to determine the risk in a situation described. They respond to a number of questions and analyze their statistical data. Then, they determine...

Sixth graders calculate perimeter of rectangles with different dimensions.  In this perimeter instructional activity, 6th graders define length, width and perimeter.  Students complete a perimeter activity using a web tool to...

One step at a time! A seemingly linear relationship becomes an entirely new type of function. Young scholars build their understanding of step functions by completing a three-stage activity that incorporates multiple representations of...

Introduce your class to the basics of coordinate planes. The reading passage included here describes ordered pairs and the different quadrants on a coordinate grid. Learners read the passage and respond to five related questions.

Young mathematicians join the ancient order of the Pythagoreans by completing an assessment task that asks them to find the area of tilted squares on dot paper. They then look at patterns in the squares to develop the...

Long and short vowels have never been quite so colorful! Learners use an intricate key to color a grid of words based on the vowel sound they hear. Red is the long a sound, light blue is the short u sound, etc. By the time they've...
