Now you see them, now you don't! This fun peek-a-boo activity engages young mathematicians in developing their ability to compose and decompose numbers. After being presented with a series of counters, children close their eyes while the...

Imaginary numbers are a real thing. Scholars learn about complex numbers, real numbers, and imaginary numbers. They classify given numbers as strictly complex, strictly real, or strictly imaginary in an individual or group activity.

Mixed numbers can be added conceptually, algorithmically, and physically. Have the class visualize mixed numbers by adding fraction bars together. They then discover the algorithmic process that simplifies adding mixed numbers. Finally,...

Entertaining as well as educational, this math activity about decomposing numbers is bound to capture the engagement of young learners. Given a cup and five two-color counters, young mathematicians simply shake and spill the cup,...

Identifying patterns is a crucial skill for all mathematicians, young and old. Explore the multiplication table with your class, using patterns and symmetry to teach about square numbers, prime numbers, and the commutative and identity...

Even or not, here I come. Groups investigate the parity of products and sums of whole numbers in the 17th activity in a series of 21. Using dots to represent numbers, they develop a pattern for the products of two even numbers; two odd...

Math games, especially in the primary grades, provide great opportunities for developing the number sense of young mathematicians. Working in pairs with a deck of single-digit cards, students take turns drawing two cards and reading the...

Develop young mathematicians' understanding of place value with this hands-on math activity. Working in pairs, learners take turns building two-digit numbers by rolling two ten-sided dice. Base ten blocks are then used to model the...

There are 33 fractions here, and all of them need to be changed...yet stay the same. Scholars convert improper fractions to mixed numbers and vice versa. Some of the mixed numbers require canceling, which the example demonstrates well....

After a full day of selling lemonade, three friends split the cost of the profit money. If the total profit was $34.20, how much will each friend get?

Mathematicians answer five word problems in an interactive practice all about repaying money using division. A calendar and moveable dollar bills aides participants in finding solutions to multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and...

Once scholars have a grasp on adding fractions, it's time to throw some mixed numbers into the equation! Each of these 14 addition problems has one mixed number and one proper fraction. Skills here include finding a common denominator,...

Show scholars that if they can do long division, they can divide numbers with decimals in them. There are 12 problems in this set; each dividend is a decimal to the hundredths place, while each divisor is a single-digit number. You may...

Looking to give your upper elementary schoolers some quick practice subtracting mixed numbers? Give each learner a copy of this sheet, and set the timer! There are 18 problems shown, and the second page contains the answers. 

Young scholars solve 14 problems in which mixed numbers with like denominators are subtracted. An example is provided on this page.

Just follow the columns! Young mathematicians complete 16 addition problems with five addends each. They examine two examples before doing these, and the example problems demonstrate carrying one and two into the next column. Encourage...

Learners investigate prime and composite numbers. They use a number chart and cross out multiples of 2,3,5 etc. up to 100. Pupils fold pieces of masking tape around pennies and label them with composite numbers, then fold masking tape...

In this comparing numbers to 10,000 practice worksheet, math whizzes compare 60 pairs of numbers in order to determine whether they are greater than, less than, or equal to one another.

Learners examine 45 pairs of 6-digit numbers. They identify each of the pairs of numbers as greater than, less than, or equal to one another.

Learners examine 45 pairs of 6-digit numbers. They identify each of the pairs of numbers as greater than, less than, or equal to one another.

Learners use their math skills to compare 45 pairs of 6 digit numbers. They fill in the 45 blanks with greater than, less than, or equal to symbols.

Elementary schoolers use their math skills to compare 60 pairs of numbers. They fill in the 60 blanks with greater than, less than, or equal to symbols.

In this number comparison worksheet, students write the greater than, less than or equal to in boxes between pairs of numbers. Answers available on page 2.
