In this beginning fractions PowerPoint, students determine how many fractional pieces are in a "whole" given a divided circle model. Contrasting colors and clear labeling on each slide provide an excellent visual representation of...

Fifth graders build models. In this measurement lesson, 5th graders build paper models to represent square centimeters, square inches, square feet, cubic centimeters, cubic inches, cubic feet, and perimeter.

Students explore the concept of models. In this model lesson plan, students examine 3-dimensional models of various objects and body parts to better understand the natural world.

Students analyze relating a model to an algebraic equation and visa versa. Patterns are reviewed in detail and then in pairs new models are created and then translated into a word problem or equation. They illustrate their models on...

Learners use and develop their spatial-visualization skills to represent features and physical objects on their playground. Working in groups, they use everyday classroom materials (blocks, crayons, counters, etc.) to build a simple...

In this math worksheet, students use the hundredths models by counting the blocks as directed by the custom assignment. This could also be used to count to 100.

In this addition worksheet, students add one digit numbers to the number 6. Students complete 10 problems and write the sum when they get the answer.

In this addition worksheet, students add one digit numbers to the number 0. Students complete 10 problems where they add numbers 0 through 10 to the number 0.

In this addition worksheet, students add the numbers 0 through 9 to the number 9. Students complete 10 problems where they add one digit numbers to the number 9.

In this addition worksheet, students add one digit numbers to the number 9. Students complete 10 problems where they add the numbers 0 through 9 to the number 9.

For this addition worksheet, learners add numbers 0 through 9 to the number 5. Students complete 10 addition problems and write the sum.

For this modeling multiplication reteaching worksheet, 2nd graders examine how to count groups and items in the groups as they multiply. They complete 4 examples by circling groups of items and writing how many items there are altogether.

Young scholars explore adding 2-digit numbers. For this math lesson, students identify 2-digit numbers and use base ten blocks to practice adding. Young scholars use addition to break a code.

Each of these five models represents one of the fractions listed; challenge your scholars to match them up. The models consist of shapes divided into squares with the total number of squares as the denominator and a colored portion as...

Students investigate ways to enhance an object's flying ability.  In this model construction lesson, students construct two paper airplanes, one of which is twice as big as the first.  Students compare and contrast the two...

In this linear programming worksheet, students define variables and write a system of inequalities for the given situation. They model the solution through graphing. This two-page worksheet contains six multi-step word problems.

Playing with matches (unlit, of course) becomes an engaging learning experience in this fun instructional unit. Teach pupils how to apply properties of exponential functions to solve problems. They differentiate between quadratic and...

Help pupils see the world through the eyes of a mathematician. As they examine tide patterns, sound waves, and stock market patterns using trigonometric functions, learners create scatter plots and write best-fit functions. 

Introduce your class to the federal tax system through an algebraic lens. This resource asks pupils to examine the variable structure of the tax system based on income. Young accountants use equations, expressions, and inequalities to...
