Students figure out math equations based on the recycling of cans and gas consumption. In this recycling lesson plan, students have challenge cards that ask them challenge questions on how to save gas and what a difference recycling can...

Fourth graders study fractions. In this fractions instructional activity, 4th graders define fraction-related vocabulary words. Students use beads to study fractions. Students draw shapes to study fraction equivalency and brainstorm...

Twelfth graders determine probabilities of real-life events such as life expectancies, winning a lottery ticket, and the break-even premium. They deduce what percent of markup is. Students are able to compare terms for financing a car...

  Students practice measurement.  For this fractions lesson, 6th graders measure volume of a liquid, e.g. 1/5 liter, and learn the vocabulary of fractions (numerator, denominator). Students solve sample problems in small...

Note that although the publisher lists almost all of the Common Core standards for both math and language arts, you will most likely want to take the general topic and choose which area to focus on. Regarding math, pupils measure worms...

Learners create a line graph on the life expectancy for males and females in Canada. In this math and health lesson plan, students review table and graph terminology, create line graphs, and analyze the differences in life expectancy...

Learners create visuals on the TI Calculator to solve problems. In this algebra lesson, students perform basic operations with integers. They add, subtract, multiply and divide.

Students solve equations with variables on both sides of the equations. In this algebra lesson plan, students use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve problems. They combine like terms and identify the unknown.

Students use visuals and words to solve equations. In this algebra lesson, students observe the necessary steps needed to add, subtract,multiply and divide to solve an equation. They graph their solution using the TI calculator.

Students change verbal expressions to algebraic equations. They practice the vocabulary of algebraic equations.

In this parts of similar triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 15 different statements related to naming the parts found in similar triangles. First, they identify each definition stated that describes an everyday usage of...

Students use the partial products algorithm to complete multiplication problems. In this partial products lesson plan, students are introduced to the algorithm and connect the relationship to multiplication and division problems.

Have your class practice measuring the perimeter of various objects using this resource. Fifth graders place various-sized polygons in order (from largest to smallest). They use non-standard measuring tools to estimate the distance...

Young statisians work with sets of data. They find mean, median and mode, and discuss the effects of outliers on the data set.

Work with your class to connect series and parallel circuits to hybrid cars. The instructional activity introduces basic circuit diagrams before having scholars apply the understanding of the difference between parallel and...

Seventh graders define the commutative and associate properties and extend commutativity and associativity to objects. They define rational numbers and review the order of operations and multiplying/dividing integers chart. In addition,...

Ninth graders investigate divisibility rules.  In this middle school mathematics/Algebra I lesson plan, 9th graders explore the divisibility rules of 7, 11, and 13.  Students examine certain six-digit numbers that are divisible...

Students describe safe practice when doing field and lab investigations in a estuary or wetland. They create a model of an estuary and describe their value and function. They participate in field study in which they collect and analyze...

Young scholars, after discussing story detail, make a list of information needed to solve a problem, convert units of time, and discuss the steps to convert units of time.

Pupils trace their feet and them compare the different sizes of classmates. They construct a bar graph showing the results of their classmates' feet size. They discuss what kinds of conclusions can be drawn from their observations.

Tiles are not just for algebra—see how they can help with multiplication too. Young mathematicians learn to use algebra tiles to model polynomial multiplication. A follow-up worksheet provides practice with the skill.

Develop a strategy for finding the area and perimeter of irregular figures. Building on an understanding of finding area and perimeter of rectangles and triangles, learners apply the same concepts to composite figures. After practicing...

More constructions! In this third installment of a 36-part series, learners watch a YouTube video on creating door trim to see how to bisect an angle. They then investigate how to copy an angle by ordering a given list of steps.
