Fifth graders put each number they receive in the appropriate order in a number line or a number circle. In this numbers lesson plan, 5th graders develop number sense and manipulate the numbers in order.

Learners work in a cooperative group of three to solve algebraic equations with roles assigned for manipulator, recorder, and checker. They utilize hands-on learning materials imbedded in the lesson plan.

Students engage in a lesson which provides them with a concrete introduction to the concept of ratios. They demonstrate the ability to create ratios with given substances - peanut butter and jelly.

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. The lesson plan and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of polygons and symmetry as well as their ability to analyze patterns.

Students compute the area of triangles in a computer program. In this measurement lesson plan, students complete 5 easy, 5 medium, and 5 hard problems.

Students classify, flip, slide, and turn a quantity of quadrilaterals.

Learners create three-dimension models demonstrating exponents, multiplying and dividing of fractions, and the use of repeating patterns in tessellations, mirror images, and tiling.

Students describe a fraction in terms of sharing parts of a whole. They understand the meaning of the parts of a fraction and add and subtract like fractions. They apply fractions to problem situations and recognize and use equivalent...

Young scholars watch a Cyberchase video to determine the importance of using the correct scale when making bar graphs. They examine how to use bar graphs to gain information easily. They determine how to use bar graphs persuasively.

Students reinforce geometric concepts by playing "Guess My Solid." Through a process of elimination, they determine the shapes of mystery solids. Finally, students use various materials to construct their own geometric figures.

Fifth graders engage in the study of conversions from decimals to percents while examining monetary values. They explain the relationships between the equivalency interchanging decimals with percents. Then students write about the...

Fifth graders solve equations. In this algebraic equations lesson plan, 5th graders use the inverse operation to solve an equation. The teacher reminds students to perform the operation on both sides of the equation. This lesson plan...

Students explore why denominators need to match before adding (or subtracting) a fraction. They use unmarked fraction circles and marked fraction bars, to discover a method to add fractions with unlike denominators using equivalent...

If you are looking for a simple way to review equivalent fractions, this is a great resource. Using a visual means and a series of examples, learners review this skill. There is a worksheet provided and a prompt to encourage pupils to...

It's time to go back over all that your class has learned about decimals, fractions, and percentages! To do so, individuals solve story problems that involve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with decimals, explain how...

Students identify classes in their schedules and associate the class with the time of day it is held. They then name classes in sequential order according to the period during which it occurs.

Young scholars input data about the colors of their serving of M&M candies onto a spreadsheet. They create charts and graphs based on this information.

Students practice various skills with manipulatives, such as counting correct money amounts to pay for manipulatives.

Learners discuss the tourist attractions that are in London. They examine how data can be manipulated by completing a worksheet. They plan a trip to a London attraction after conducting Internet research.

Students explore math and art concepts, create digital art examples of the concepts, and incorporate these works into a PowerPoint portfolio with explanation and analysis.

Students examine photographs before writing captions for them. They develop visual literacy as they see how photographs are manipulated to show the effects of acid rain. They rewrite the photo captions after a class discussion.

Students measure and label specified angles. In this angles lesson, students use a protractor to find angles that are acute, obtuse, and reflexive. Students then label each angle and match the angles the correct definition. This lesson...

Students complete activities for geometric shapes and multiplication. In this multiplication lesson, students watch a video about carpets and square foot multiplication problems. Students then work in pairs to solve the main problem in...

Students discover the inequality of food distribution.  In the hunger lesson, students discuss how some places and people do not get the food they need to survive. Students role play distributing pretend meals to people (of unequal...
