Students observe and demonstrate a variety of activities to identify the fraction parts and the symbols they represent. As a class they explore different fractions using unifix cubes, then use the cubes to build and discuss the...

Get your little mathematicians moving with this experiential activity in which one child is the "tens" and another is the "ones." They collect the number of unifix cubes (in tens or singles) assigned to their respective place values and...

Students, in groups, create models of pizzes and divide them, usin Unifix cubes, into fractions.

Students subtract two digit numbers. They check each other's answers for accuracy.

Third graders write fractions and decimals using unifix cube models and grid paper. They draw a garden using grid paper and label each section with the correct fraction and decimal to the tenths. This is a clever way to use manipulatives...

Second graders explain the relative size of fractions using symbolic and concrete representations. Groups of four students play a game which uses cards and unifix cubes. The game helps them get a visual understanding for the 'size' of...

Second graders identify fractions as part of a set. They explain concrete and symbolic representations of whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and percents in real-world situations. They complete a web-based cookie baking lesson.

Calculate theoretical probabilities and compare them to experimental probabilities. Pupils build on their knowledge of experimental probabilities to determine theoretical probabilities. Participants work several problems with the...

Second graders explore related multiplication and division facts. They study the inverse relationship of multiplication and division and engage in a group discussion about families. They complete a web-based lesson which is imbedded in...

Students mark seconds, minutes, hours, days, etc. on class timetable report to keep track of time spent on Uninterrupted Silent Reading.
