Practice makes perfect! Skilled mathematicians can practice their skills by converting each fraction into a decimal.

A great aspect of teaching math is that children have the freedom to solve problems using a variety of different strategies. The focus of this lesson plan is for young mathematicians to become aware of many ways of answering addition...

Learn about Galileo Galilei's contribution to modern science with a reading passage that focuses on reading comprehension. After kids read several paragraphs about his life, they answer five questions about the information they have just...

Compare two fractions with like denominators or like numerators in an excellent skills practice worksheet. With 10 sets of worksheets, the packet uses numbers and visual models to help young mathematicians determine greater...

Introduce comparing fractions with a activity containing visual models. Young mathematicians must first identify the part being described in each model and then write greater than, less than, or equal to. Learners prepare to compare...

Make fractions fun and interesting by using a brochure form. Young mathematicians practice and gain a better understanding of how to add and subtract fractions, simplify fractions, and find LCD (least common denominator). The resources...

Why waste time teaching multiplication and division facts separately, when this resource allows you to cover both concepts at once. Displaying the fact families for all single-digit factors, these triangle shaped flash cards are a great...

Instead of the typical quadratic questioning, explore the function and look at the three different ways a parabola can be written. The main task is when given several clues, young mathematicians must write an equation that matches the...

When mathematical errors happen, part of the learning is to figure out how it affects the rest of your calculations. The activity has your mathematicians solving for the area of a circular pipe and taking into consideration any errors...

Young mathematicians are introduced to fractions in a unit that helps them to understand parts of a whole.

Challenge the young mathematicians to find the exact coordinates of a dilated point. The fifth segment in a 16-part series introduces the class to the converse of the Fundamental Theorem of Similarity. Scholars use the theorem to...

Zero in on your pupils' understanding of solving quadratic equations. Spend time developing the purpose of the zero product property so that young mathematicians understand why the equations should be set equal to zero and how that...

Challenge young mathematicians' understanding of the coordinate plane with this series of skills practice worksheets. Offering 10 different exercises that involve identifying ordered pairs,...

Learning how to convert fractions into decimals can be tricky, but the best place to start is with a power of 10. Bring a helpful fractions worksheet to your math lesson to review the concept. It contains 18 fractions written...

Looking for higher-level thinking questions? This assessment provides questions that challenge young mathematicians to think and analyze rather than simply memorize. Topics include piecewise functions, linear modeling, exponential...

Be ready mathematicians of every level. This lesson leads to the discovery of the zero product property and provides challenges for early finishers along the way. At conclusion, pupils understand the process of using the zero product...

Assess your young mathematicians' knowledge and understanding of the properties of exponents. The questions in the seventh lesson of 15 incorporate the properties learned in the first six modules of this series. Individuals use and apply...

Substitution is still the method of choice to verify number sentences. The detailed lesson has young mathematicians determining conditions for when number sentences are true or false through substitution. They learn to express these...

Connect functions to geometry. In the ninth installment of a 12-part module, young mathematicians create functions by investigating situations in geometry. They look at both area and volume of figures to complete a well-rounded lesson.

I can multiply, so why can't I add these radicals? Mathematicians use the distributive property to explain addition of radical expressions. As they learn how to add radicals, they then apply that concept to find the perimeter of...

Class members investigate relationships between two variables in the seventh installment of a 16-part module that teaches scholars how to find and describe patterns in scatter plots. Young mathematicians consider linear/nonlinear...

Future mathematicians learn how to evaluate numerical expressions by applying the order of operations. They evaluate similar-looking expressions to see how the location of parentheses and exponents affects the value. 

Do you want your budding mathematicians to be able to explain 'why' and not just 'do'? This lesson encourages an understanding of the process of elimination. Pupils are expected to understand how and why the elimination method is a valid...

Connect linear equations, proportionality, and constant rates of change to linear functions. Young mathematicians learn how linear equations of the form y = mx + b can represent linear functions. They then explore examples of linear...
