Young scholars manipulate negative and positive numbers. In this integers lesson, students move through three activities exploring negative and positive whole numbers. A number line, cardboard function representation, and solving...

Fifth graders describe patterns as relations and functions. In this patterning lesson plan, 5th graders analyze and continue patterns. Students understand how patterns relate to relations and functions.

Students explore mathematical problem solving. Given a case problem, students write a rule to solve problems involving decimal multiplication and division. They invent problems, share them with the class, and solve other student's...

Second graders work on the problem with a partner. They examine what they are supposed to be doing. They share the students's solutions making sure than they are looking for patterns along the diagonals.

Fourth graders are introduced to the problem by weighing objects on the balance scales. Use weights in both pans. (If you don't have access to scales use 2 containers and a child acting as the balance.) They then listen to the problem...

Students combine imagination, block manipulation, and computer applets to investigate fractions.

Students identify the passage of time. They also practice with basic mathematical concepts.

This unit encourages students to assess the validity of a set of statements and then plan and carry out investigations to find out whether the statements are true. Students then carry out statistical investigations of their own.

Third graders estimate the volume and mass of one marshmallow using appropriate standard units. They design and carry out an investigation to find the average of volume/mass of one marshmallow.

Young scholars read the problem and then identify the important information in the problem and highlight. They then brainstorm for ways to solve the problem by drawing a picture and working in pairs.

Students use the properties of multiplication to solve problems. They recall the basic multiplication facts as well as write and solve problems that involve whole numbers.

In this subtraction worksheet, 1st graders solve for the differences in 30 vertical problems in which they use numbers up to 12.
