Curated OER
Cups and Cubes
Third graders explore the use of cups and counters as a model to analyze the effects of operations. They create and use a rule to create a sequential pattern and use cups and cubes to model the relationship.

Introduction to Economics
Students develop the concept of supply and demand. In this economics lesson, students listen to a lecture and take notes on supply and demand. Students create a coherent set of notes about supply and demand.

Topic 6: Evaluating and Presenting Results
Students construct spreadsheets from raw data. In this spreadsheet construction lesson, students compile data into Microsoft Excel. Students familiarize themselves with entering and presenting data in a spreadsheet.
Curated OER
Can Stack
Students are able to find the rule for summing consecutive numbers;
identify the pattern of triangular numbers. They then solve the given problem using logic and mathematical reasoning.
Curated OER
Conjectures and Conclusions
Learners draw conclusions and make conjectures given a specific scenario. In this geometry lesson plan, students model real life scenarios using properties of triangles. They model number facts and explain why the outcome is what it is.
Curated OER
Tilted Squares and Right Triangles
Students investigate squares. They generate patterns from structured situations and find a rule for the general term and express it using words and symbols. Students generate patterns from a rule and substitute values and formulas.
Curated OER
Finding Patterns in Fractals
Students discover patterns and sequences. They use a website to explore patterns and fractals. Students share their discovery of fractals and their patterns with the class. They develop a list of patterns used in everyday life.
Curated OER
Perimeters, Patterns, and Conjectures
Students discover patterns and write conjectures relating to perimeters and polygons. Working in cooperative learning groups, they use manipulatives and graphic organizers to solve problems then answer a series of questions in which they...
