Help learners discover methods to estimate animal population. They will participate in a simulation of catching and tagging fish in order to estimate the fish population. They scoop and count goldfish crackers, record data, and use...

Kindergartners play the classic game Go Fish as they practice identifying numbers in the teens. A fun and engaging activity that develops number recognition skills in young learners. As added support, provide cards that include both the...

Students share a bowl of goldfish crackers. For this lesson on sharing, students see how a limited resource goes furthest when it is evenly shared. Students are allowed to take as many crackers as they would like, and then in contrast,...

Practice adding whole numbers by combining the amount of fish Alice and Bob catch. As young mathematicians work through each problem, they are asked to find one more plus the amount of fish already caught. They can manipulate the...

A math and science worksheet prompts learners to simulate how scientists determine populations of animals out in the wild. They use goldfish crackers, paper bags, and a styrofoam cup as their tools. An excellent cooperative group activity!

Students constructaA fishing game that reinforces number recognition,and some basic addition.They use foam sheets to make fish cutouts of different colors and with a addition problem on the bigger one's and the answers on the smaller one.

Go fish! Preschoolers and kindergartners work on matching and patterns. This resource prompts little learners to match certain fish to the correct fisherman. They then count the types of fish and write the number in spaces provided....

Go fish! Kindergartners match numbers between fishermen and the fish they're catching. Once kids finish their number practice, they can color the page. For extra fun, bring in plastic fish with numbers, and assign numbers to kids to...

Take your class on a hypothetical fishing trip! This word problem gives a data set describing how many fish each of the nine contestants in a fishing derby caught. The numbers range from zero to ten. Learners examine the data and answer...

Students collect data, interpret data summarize proportional reasoning. Students determine (with various alternate goods) the number of fish in a nearby pond. Students capture the goldfish crackers, deal with pretzels and then write...

In this addition facts activity, learners recognize the numbers and are able to add simple problems by participating in a fishing game. Students use a fishing pole with a washer on the end to fish for magnetic fish made out of foam....

Students examine uses for water. In this water lesson, students discuss how they use water. As a class students make a PowerPoint by naming one swimming safety rule. Students compare and contrast fishing for fun and fishing for survival.

Wondering what Dr. Seuss and his colorful fish have to offer your young mathematicians? Find out with this simple yet affective word problem activity that challenges children to determine how many different combinations of...

Young counters will enjoy this beginning addition activity; they get to color as they go! For each set of 10 fish they color some green and leave some white. Then, they fill in the blanks to create an addition sentence with the sum of...

In this language arts learning exercise, students read a story called Fish Eyes. Students cut out little fish and add one to each picture. Then, students count the new total in each picture.

Third graders imagine that they are asked to determine the number of fish in a nearby pond. To count the fish one by one, they could remove the fish from the pond and stack them to one side, or mark each fish so they would not count them...

Eighth graders use goldfish crackers to simulate a capture-recapture method of data collection. They fill in a chart and determine the averages. They find the estimated population of fish and the actual population of fish based on the...

Learners explore the concept of ordered pairs. In this ordered pairs lesson, pupils list the ordered pairs of a graph in the shape of a fish. They use their calculator to translate the fish using lists, then translate the fish left,...

Children brainstorm and list pairs of numbers that equal ten. In small groups they play Tens Go Fish, which is like regular Go Fish, except your goal is to make pairs that equal ten. Make math fun with this fishing game! A worksheet is...

Ideally, this resource would be used in a pre-school classroom to introduce the idea of counting to five. In the presentation, the numbers, word representations, and a graphic showing a certain number of fish, help review this...

Students experience The Fish Counting Rhyme. For this counting lesson, students practice counting while listening to The Fish Counting Rhyme.

Students go ice-fishing. For this magnet lesson students use magnetic fishing poles at the sensory table. the sensory table is full of cotton balls. They find magnetic numbers that have been hidden.

Review basic algebraic rules of addition of integers. Then have the class define a variable and explore methods of solving equations with one variable. They observe solving expressions using inverse operations and simplifying solutions....

Students utilize LEGO's to replace cards for a game that replicates "Go Fish".
