Developing fluency with long division is a big step in the education of young mathematicians. With the support of base ten blocks, learners deepen their understanding of the operation in this elementary math lesson. Although it indicates...

Smoothly transition your class into using the long division algorithm with this hands-on math lesson. Working in pairs, young mathematicians practice using base ten blocks or play money to model division by single-digit divisors....

Monitor the growth of young mathematicians with a comprehensive addition and subtraction assessment. Using the context of a class field trip to an apple orchard, this series of four story problems allows children to demonstrate their...

"How can you help students visualize numbers in a way that is compatible with our base-ten number system?" The answer is simple: use ten-frames. Whether they're being used as a part of classroom routines or as instructional tools, this...

Take full advantage of your classroom's supply of base ten blocks with this collection of math action cards. From building towers and counting up the value of the blocks to using the blocks to measure the length of objects, these...

Support young mathematicians' interpretation of place value in order to multiply single-digit numbers by 10. The task builds upon and enhances a learners' understanding of place value, a second grade skill, while introducing them to...

Base ten blocks are a great tool for teaching young mathematicians about a number of math concepts, unfortunately they aren't always available to teachers. That is, until now. This printable resource allows all children the opportunity...

Build young mathematicians' understanding of three-digit numbers with a simple base ten block worksheet. Using their knowledge of the ones, tens, hundreds places, young children must figure out the number represented by each collection...

Break out the base ten blocks for this presentation on long division. Looking at two separate examples, step-by-step instructions are provided for dividing two- and three-digit numbers by single-digit divisors. Engage the class by...

Base ten blocks form the basis of understanding in this lesson on rounding to the nearest 100. A review of place value and finding midpoints on a number chart precedes two examples of rounding a three-digit number. This is the seventh in...
