A perfect second grade worksheet. The class reviews counting by hundreds and tens using cubes, then count blocks and rows to determine how many cubes there are in a given set, 4 sets total.

Establish 1:1 correspondence by counting students, first one gender, then the other. Give each child a colored cube (one color for boys, another for girls) and have small groups determine more or less and how many all together. As a...

Class members drill and practice counting skills from 1 to 20. They count along with a puppet and when the puppet makes a mistake, they correct it. In pairs, they connect cubes to make a train and count the number used. On the last of...

Upper elementary and middle schoolers describe the various features of unit cubes, such as edges, corners, and faces. They also discuss how to represent measurements of a cube using exponents before engaging in various thinking and...

Learners explore their counting skills. In this counting activity, students group objects in sets of 10 to practice counting them. Learners also practice graphing the sets of objects they count.  This activity incorporates...

Early learners explore shapes using colored blocks. They first get some hands-on time with the blocks and then look at beginning math concepts regarding spatial relationships. They work with a partner to build a 6-8 block tower...

Students explore numbers by participating in basic counting activities. In this early math lesson, students identify the numbers between 1 and 5 and read several books that demonstrate early counting. Students practice counting to 5 on...

Working in a math center or an "I finished early" work station, young mathematicians will match in sequence pre-set-up rods of unifix cubes to numbers on a number line. To help differentiate tens from ones, use different colors to...

Build on your learners' confidence in quick addition as they discover strategies to add tens to two-digit numbers. After reviewing counting by 10's, they discuss tactics to add multiples of 10 to other numbers. They visualize how to...

Learners practice their number sense throughout the day. They practice their use and understanding of numbers in every part of the day. Students watch and listen to the teacher count students in class, sort themselves based on colors or...

Create your own fraction kits by folding and labeling paper using fraction vocabulary. Learners then work in groups to use these in comparing and sequencing both whole numbers and fractions. They also create unit cubes and develop an...

Build counting fluency in your kindergartners with this counting and grouping timed learning game. Provide various groups of objects to count such as a clear plastic bag filled with 7 beans or a cup with 5 pennies. There are many other...

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...

Middle schoolers work in small groups to make various geometric solids with Play-Doh. They use fishing line to make cuts and observe the shapes of the cross-sections. Pupils complete an assessment in which they answer questions such as:...

Young scholars study the concept of addition. They create verbal number stories with numbers from one to five. They draw a slice of bread with a line down the middle and cut the bread shapes out of a "slice of bread" and a handful of...

Students create an individual M&M's graph based on the number of each color of candy pieces in their handful of candy. They graph the favorite color of the whole class while practicing counting and color identification.

Young scholars 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. Young scholars discuss the counting elements in the book and...

Students problem solve to open a cube to create different shapes. In this problem solving lesson plan, students are given a cube and the shapes to open it up to, and they have to cut the cube open to make certain shapes. This gives them...

Fourth graders find the volume of cubes and cylinders. To determine volume, they fill large cubes with centimeter cubes. They discuss the formula used to find the volume of a cube. Students explore why the solution to the volume of a...

First graders represent, compare, and order numbers. In this counting skills lesson, 1st graders use manipulatives to demonstrate one-to-one correspondence and to represent numbers. This lesson includes a teacher script to guide the lesson.

Students participate in teacher-led demonstrations and use manipulatives to count the numbers one through ten out loud.

Fifth graders investigate mathematical concepts related to the construction of a three dimensional cube. They construct the cube from two dimensional patterns and compute the surface area. Students also define the faces, edges, and...

Students develop number sense up to a million.  In this developing number sense up to a million instructional activity, students count their breaths in given time span.  Students use blocks representing 10's and 100's to create...
