Build strong number sense through pattern recognition. Learners investigate whether the sum of each problem will be odd or even if they add certain combinations of numbers together. They complete 12 problems, adding odd+odd, odd+even, or...

There are multiple objectives at play here as scholars solve addition and subtraction problems and determine whether the sums and differences are odd or even. As they solve these, encourage pupils to observe patterns. What happens when...

Children are told that an odd number is one that does not have a partner and an even number is one that has a partner. It's not the way I would explain it, but no matter, the activity and worksheet are still good. Children analyze each...

What's odd? What's even? And what is the pattern? Learners explore addition problems to answer this question, deciding if the answer to each equation is odd or even. They then draw a two-column table to illustrate the outcomes of the...

Here's a good learning exercise to use as a way to assess how well the class understood the lesson on odd and even number. They will mark odd and even numbers, add odd number, add even numbers, mark the odds and evens, then answer 3...

Reinforce odd and even number recognition. Learners color all the odd bubbles blue and all the even numbers green. A suggested number sorting activity is located at the bottom of the learning exercise. This activity would be great to...

Nobody wants to be the odd man out. The first video in this series uses prior knowledge about making fair teams to teach young mathematicians about even and odd numbers. Pictures and number lines offer support as children learn that even...
