Hypothetically, knowing the structure of a test should help. Pupils use the released free-response questions from the 2003 AP® Statistics exam to become aware of the structure of questions on the test. Half the questions in the set...

In this early addition practice worksheet, students use their counting skills to solve 5 problems that require them to count math counters in boxes adding them together.

Count the animals in each group and add to make the number 10. This slide show provides learners with the opportunity to see how many different way they can count on to make 10. Cute animals and large exciting number make this a great...

While the first slide doesn't make much sense, the rest of the show is great. Kids are introduced to repeated addition as multiplication. They see images of equal groups of objects, each group is represented numerically by an addition...

Enhance young mathematicians' counting strategies using this large five frames printable. Here, you'll find a large one by five array with red counters to support adding and subtracting through visual images of numbers one through...

The test may say you have cancer, but sometimes the test is wrong. The provided task asks learners to analyze cancer statistics for a fictitious town. Given the rate of false positives, they interpret the meaning of this value in the...

You may think your holiday pumpkins weigh a ton, but in a giant pumpkin contest, they actually do! Middle schoolers read about the winners of the 2014 giant pumpkin contests before solving three word problems involving multiplication and...

Eight questions challenge mathematicians to multiply decimals. A color-coded tool with movable parts assist participants in answering word problems. Item response types include fill in the blank, multiple-choice, and a discussion. ...

Classmates create a scale drawing from another scale drawing, changing the scale in the process. Groups enlarge or reduce the scale of the drawing and discuss their processes.

Work together to find proportional relationships. The sixth portion of the 22-part unit is a collaborative exercise. Teams work with given representations of relationships and determine if they are proportional by creating tables and...

Use properties to evaluate several multiplications and divisions. The 16th instructional activity in a series of 25 demonstrates to scholars how they can utilize properties of operations to evaluate complex numerical expressions...

Groups write and evaluate expressions for various phone plans and scenarios to find which is the best deal. They then compare different approaches to writing expressions for the same scenario and discuss the concept of equivalent...

Discover how to apply the commutative and associative properties to generate equivalent expressions. The second lesson in the 28-part module asks pupils to rearrange an expression by grouping like terms. From there, they can combine...

After examining how a spring scale works, teams work together to design their own general measurement device. Reading material provides background information, but there is no part of the procedure in which learners handle an actual...

Many people confuse atomic mass and atomic numbers. The sixth of seven lessons in a unit requires scholars to find the weight of different groups of pennies. Then, they must solve how many of each type of penny exists in a closed system...

Fifth graders practice solving word problems using highlighted strategies. In this word problem lesson, 5th graders brainstorm and  use words as clues that indicate the math operations that will be used to solve problems. They use...

Students use polygons to explore division. They use pattern blocks to represent whole numbers and fractions. They discuss divisors, factors, dividend and products. In groups, students present models and solve problems. They justify their...

Five days of lessons develop number sense and counting patterns, including odd and even numbers, 5s and 10s, doubles, and ways to make 10. Each session opens with fun finger play to reinforce counting and reasoning about numbers. Various...

Reciprocals are the method used for dividing fractions in this instructional session. A fraction is defined as being a division problem, and then the whole group works together to solve several problems. They check for the reasonableness...

Mathematicians use an inquiry method to solve linear equations. In this linear equations lesson, students practice solving equations using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They solve multi-step equations and equations...

Students explore number sense by completing problems in class. In this patterns lesson, students examine a group of numbers and identify what the pattern is and how it should correctly continue. Students practice utilizing number values...

Count along as a class! Each slide contains a number and objects to count, 1-20. The images are fun and as they reach 10+ are grouped by ones and tens. This resource could be used in a variety of ways, is well put together, and has fun...

Brilliant! This presentation helps kids discover all the different way they can make 10. Each slide contains 10 balls, as the kids count, each ball blinks, and the number appears under them to show how many. A plus sign pops up and the...

A straight edge, a right angle, a number of vertices; sounds like it's time to classify polygons. That's right you and your class will learn all about the properties of polygons and how to classify them with this easy to follow...
