In this lesson, students will explore fractions through rhythmic sequences. Media sources and teaching materials are included.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This is an interactive lesson for teaching combining like terms for an 8th grade math class.

A lesson plan where students will interpret the trigonometric functions in terms of the unit circle, graph a sinusoidal function, and use a sinusoidal function to make interpretations in a modeling context.

5th grade lesson plan explains how to simplify a fraction.

Lesson presents definitions of terms associated with circles and helps students learn to use a compass to draw circles and simple circle designs.

To introduce these terms, 1st graders get to learn a little mouse with a LONG name! After reading Chrysanthemum, students look at how long all of their names are and use the terms, "shorter, equal to and longer than" to compare the lengths.

Students will be able to make use of structure on their way to deriving a formula for the sum of a geometric series. They will also gain more experience in finding the nth term of a sequence/series. Includes short video. [1:15]

A big word for a big idea! After being introduced to the term quadrilateral, the students will learn the characteristics of them and have an opportunity to create various quadrilaterals.

Lining up from tallest to shortest is a great way to practice looking at height and exploring the terms shorter and taller.

Children will learn the term variable and then work to "attack" a problem using what they know about the relationship between multiplication and division to solve for an unknown.

Exposure to this concept now is both fun and engaging AND a crucial step toward building a foundation for deeper, long-term understanding.

The student learns how to create number patterns involving addition and subtraction.

Third graders will observe and try to model slightly above-level division problems as they practice expressing math questions and possible solutions in mathematical terms.
