High schoolers investigate quadrilateral construction in this geometry instructional activity. They use Cabri Jr. to construct the different quadrilaterals from the quadrilateral hierarchy given minimal definitions. The instructional...

What do you get when you combine your traditional times table worksheet with cute worm characters? A fun mini-book that youngsters can enjoy and that will help them practice multiplying by one!

Here is a wonderful way to teach children with visual impairments how to count and build number recognition skills. Included, you will find a set of instructions on how to create a counting book from card stock, jump rings, and cotton...

In this metric system worksheet, learners fill out a flip book based on the metric system. Students complete 6 pages in the flip book.

Learners explore the difference between a construction and a drawing. They focus on various ways to construct different types of triangles. The lesson is an application of Cabri Jr. and reinforces the difference between a constructions...

Pupils investigate the number of points needed to determine a unique circle in a plane. Using Cabri Jr., they apply construction techniques to generate a circle that passes through a given number of points.

Youngsters count, classify, and estimate quantities using buttons after a read aloud of The Button Box by Margarette S. Reid. They discuss the difference between guessing and estimating. Based on an experiment, they predict the...

Develop multiplication skills with your class. Youngsters will visualize multiplication as repeated addition. Then they will create a multiplication bug book and discover arrays as a strategy for multiplication problem solving....

Students construct a book to illustrate number concepts. They write their numbers on a sheet of paper. Students in grade 1 discuss counting to 100 by different numbers. Pupils in grades (2-4) write basic addition or subtraction story...

Pupils create pattern books. In this math patterns lesson plan, students create various patterns using manipulatives. Pupils take digital photographs of the patterns and create books.

First graders write a time book. For this writing and telling time lesson, 1st graders learn about the concept of time using a Judy clock. Students read a book about a ladybug and look closely at the time on the clock.  Students...

Greed is the theme of the West African folktale, Anansi Goes to Lunch and this multidisciplinary collection of lessons. First, scholars listen to a read aloud and participate in a grand conversation about the book's key details and...

Students familiarize themselves with the construct and measure menus. They demonstrate how to use the Sketchpad Calculator. They draw a triangle and construct the centroid. They shade in each of the small triangles and measure the area.

Use the book, The Gummy Candy Counting Book, to practice counting up to ten objects in a group. This lesson nicely-combines language arts and math in a way that should lead to effective teaching.

Students read books, learn about the letter s, and eat raisins all to learn about shadows. In this shadows lesson plan, students also go outside and look at shadows and sing songs about shadows.

An instructive lesson provides the basics on how to perform rotations on the coordinate plane. The handout also covers rotating about a point other than the origin and how to perform a series of transformations. 

Did your students forget to bring their protractors to class again? Using this resourceful copy of four identical protractors, you can easily make a class set or let your students take them home. 

Students create a notebook with divisibility rules in it. For this algebra lesson, students write down the rules that determine the factors of a number. They continue to add to the book and use it to help them on their problems.

Students investigate the concepts of geometry that can be grouped into a flip book that can be used for teaching and review purposes. They define the differences between two and three dimensional figures. Also polygons are reviewed and...

Students construct and interpret a "favorite classroom books" graph. In this literacy and math graphing instructional activity, students choose a reduced size copy of the book cover that corresponds with the book(s) they chose to read...

Students explore bridges.  For this bridge lesson, students design and build a suspension bridge after visiting related websites and reviewing famous bridges in non-fiction books.  Students follow the instructions from the...

Middle and high schoolers construct a triangle using Cabri Jr. They construct squares on each of the legs and hypotenuse of the triangle. Pupils show that the area of the squares on the leg equal the area of the square on the hypotenuse.

Learners work with rectangles to find generalizations for adding and subtracting odd and even numbers in part one of the lesson. In part two, students use geoboards to construct polygons, look for patterns, and find a general rule.

Challenge your class to construct a definition for trapezoids. Looking at four examples and four non-examples, students individually create definitions and use them to classify an unknown shape. Allow for small group and whole-class...
