Middle schoolers consider probability problems with unexpected and surprising answers.

Students are introduced to a method for finding square roots used by the Babylonian people of Mesopotamia. The method involves dividing and averaging, over and over, to find a more accurate solution with each repeat of the process.

Your learners will examine probability through experiments and dice games. Using a computer, your class will perform simple experiments to collect and analyze data to determine the probability of different experimental results. Students...

Fifth graders explore the regions of the United States. They use maps, research on the Internet and use measurements and estimations. Students create a presentation using spreadsheets and publishing software.

Students rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.

Seventh graders use the World Wide Web for research, identify fractions found in everyday life by finding a recipe that uses fractions.

Students use Venn diagrams to represent classifications of shapes and to use counting arguments to find the number of objects in a given set.

Students discover how to convert fractions to decimals and percents. They play the role of a shopper to complete this activity.

Students analyze symmetries of quadrilateral tilings and discover how various types of symmetries, used alone or in combination, can generate the same pattern in more than one way.
