An Experiment With the Cuisenaire Rods

Support your learners as they work on writing paragraphs by providing graphic organizers, outlines, and frames. Sift through this packet to find the perfect organizers and templates to prepare pupils for writing. The resource...

Teaching slope is part of the foundation for graphing equations. This video starts at the beginning and introduces the types of slope before calculating with the slope formula. On a graph, your learners will see that every line has a...

Introduce slope, slope, and more slope, with this comprehensive video about....slope! Start with the slope formula and transition to counting the slope from a line on a coordinate plane. Your mathematicians will be able to see the...

Send your class on the hunt for a buried treasure and apply geometry skills along the way. An engaging lesson uses direction and midpoint locations to find the location of a treasure. Videos provide background information to complete the...

Young scholars study fractions by comparing rations using Cuisenaire rods. They make predictions, measure lengths using Cuisenaire rods and explain their answers. Next, they discuss the relationship of the different rods in terms of...

Watch the damage from a forest fire in this interactive simulation activity that challenges learners to estimate the burn area using different approaches. Learners are given a worksheet to track the different burn patterns and practice...

What percent of the 100 ft. rock has Marta climbed? Young mathematicians find the percent of number (the rock height) by moving the climber up and down the rock.

Follow along with RJ from the Study Jams! crew as he walks step-by-step through the process for comparing fractions with unlike denominators. Starting with finding the least common denominator, the presentation goes on to demonstrate how...

Students reproduce iam Herschel's original experiment of 1800 that discovered the existence of infrared radiation. They create a device in which sunlight pass through a prism and produce a spectrum of light on the bottom of a cardboard box.

You first! An interactive sets up a game between two friends who hope they don't find a lemon hidden under a tray. Pupils determine whether there is an advantage of going first. Individuals find the probabilities of each friend finding...
