Sixth graders identify prime and composite numbers. They participate in a hands-on activity to discover the multiples and factors of specified numbers. They write a paragraph to explain representing factors.

The hunt is on! Young mathematicians follow clues and complete a series of ten math puzzles as they try to crack Dr. Integer's code and find the location of his hidden treasure.

When one method isn't enough to teach GCF, try two! This interactive webpage introduces factors and the prime factor tree to find the greatest common factor of two numbers. After the lesson, have learners click to try the two examples...

Beginning with a description that sets the stage, learners are asked to break down the numbers 42 and 63 to find the greatest common denominator using factor trees. As they work through the factoring process, young mathematicians are...

Students study the Gregorian Calendar and its historical significance.In this calendar lesson plan students create a calendar design for an imaginary planet.

Fifth graders discover the connections between algebra and geometry. With a focus on arrays and factors, they are introduced to multiplication. They develop an array for multiples of 2 through 10 and identify the factors of each row....

Students analyze the measurements of rectangles. For this analysis lesson, students will investigate patterns by looking at ratios. Students will also hypothesize the probability of a ball going into a certain pocket when playing pool....

Sixth graders need to see the relevance in the mathematics they learn. This lesson builds on the concepts of least common multiple and greatest common factor. The lesson presents real-world problem situations for students to solve.

Fourth graders explore factors of numbers from 1 to 50. They gain practice with basic facts and multi-digit multiplication problems. Students practice the commutative property. They discover the link between multiplication and...

Seventh graders practice applying the rules of divisibility.

Students are introduced to the concept of a Greatest Common Divisor. They review the number systems. Students are told how the entire field of Number Theory primarily uses the integers. They are told the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra.

Discuss the definition for a simplified form for a square root. Middle schoolers analyze different forms of a square root, the Product Property of Square Roots, and complete a worksheet.

In this finding factors practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Students perform basic operations in modular (clock) arithmetic. Students encode and decode messages using shift and affine ciphers. Students apply their multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction skills.

Students examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.

Students study Pascal's triangle. They construct their own version of Pascal's triangle, and relate some of the uses for it. While working through this process, students practice their integer multiplication and division skills.
