Learners calculate volume using the correct formula and the correct unit. They explore different prisms, spheres, cubes, and cones as they calculate volume and relate it to depths in oceans.

Few topics engage young mathematicians as much as learning about money. Through a series of shared readings and hands-on activities, children explore the US currency system, learning how to count money and calculate change as they create...

Ninth graders factor equations and find prime numbers. In this algebra lesson, 9th graders find the factors and prime factors of a number using multiples and relatively prime numbers.

Sixth graders measure different objects using one inch and centimeter cubes as a reference. In this measurement lesson plan, 6th graders construct inch and centimeter rulers then measure objects while also converting units of measurement.

First graders practice place value by completing problems that allow them to group 10 items together to create groups of 10 and see what is left over. In this place value lesson plan, 1st graders use cups to put 10 items in them, and...

Young mathematicians study probability. In this math lesson, learners calculate odds, and convert those into percentages of probability. Fractions are also used, making this lesson quite rich in some of the more difficult conversions...

Seventh graders use online math games to practice understanding the skill of estimation and order of operations. In this lesson, 7th graders use the internet to play online games to strengthen their understanding of these skills. 

Students investigate finite mathematics using a flow chart. In this algebra lesson, students investigate logic and strategies using flowcharts. Students compete against each other using different approaches to playing the game.

Students define vocabulary related to geometry and calculate the volume. In this geometry lesson, students calculate flow rates, and volume as it relates to a water plant facility. They calculate the volume of three dimensional shapes...

Young scholars analyze convex polyhedra through hands on methods. In this geometrical shapes lesson, students construct paper models of convex polyhedra and identify the different properties including the number of sides, faces and edges.

Young mathematicians listen to the book Sold!: A Mathematics Adventure by Nathan Zimelman where they encounter ways to solve story problems. They then create and solve start unknown addition and subtraction equations. Resource builds in...

Students study the measurement formulas for area and perimeter in real-life situations. In this area and perimeter lesson, students design a bed and arrange furniture in a hotel room using area and perimeter formulas for a 7 1/2 foot...

Students solve related addition and subtraction problems. In this addition and subtraction instructional activity, students use the book Ten Sly Piranhas by William Wise as the source of word problems for students to solve.

Students explore number sequence in a variety of activities. In this number practice lesson, students play a game of finger flash and read the book Counting Crocodiles. Students discuss the counting elements in the book and chart the...

Children play with barnyard animal cards to practice composing and decomposing numbers. With their "secret number" of animal cards in a cup, they shake and spill them onto a barn story board, counting how many animals fall in the barn...
