Here is a fantastic lesson for your fifth grade math scholars. In it, learners must determine if the classrooms of upper graders are bigger, or smaller, than the classrooms of the lower grades. Some excellent worksheets are embedded in this plan which will make implementation of the lesson easy to do. This would be a great lesson for group work.
