Students count back with cubes to model subtraction problems. In this subtraction lesson plan, students compare sets of problems and record their results in a table.

Third graders observe two fractions and write the numbers in order from least to greatest referring to the sheet with different fractions they have before them to help them decide which one is smaller. Time allowing, they practice...

Pupils compare and order integers on an umber line. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between positive and negative numbers. They plot point in the correct order on a number line.

Students explore quilting. In this math patterns lesson, students define the perimeter of a quilt border, create tessellations using geometric shapes, and detemine the area of a quilt.

Practice place value skills with this lesson. Learners put numbers in order from greatest to least, identify the values of particular numbers, and engage in an activity to compare numbers using manipulatives.

Elementary learners explore coin mint dates. First, they listen to the book Alexander Who Used to be Rich Last Sunday by Judith Viorst. They then sort a collection of coins according to their mint date and put them in order from oldest...

Everyone gets a toaster pastry to enjoy with this fractions activity! First, youngsters cut their treat in two, and then they proceed to cut it into equal parts until they have 16 pieces! If your learners aren't quite ready for this...

Complete problems using base ten blocks to see the difference in the place value of a decimal and how it affects a number's value. Learners compare decimal values as well. Ample time for discussion and modeling are allowed in the...

Fourth graders play a fraction game removing a fraction of a whole as the spinner dictates.

Learners bring in their fat diaries and work in pairs to calculate their average fat intake per day during the week of data collection. The whole class gathers to calculate their total fat intake and average fat intake per student per...

Learners create a set of fraction circles using a paper folding technique. They fold 10 inch circles of paper into the indicated fractions, identify the fractions, and use them to show equivalency.

Students examine a soccer league final standings chart and then answer 12 questions based on the information provided. They calculate some answers in both fractions and percentages.

Learners create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.

Sixth graders participate in a activity that covers the reading and interpretation of a circle graph. They review the part of a whole concept for percents and student observe and practice using the circle graph.

Score a resource on ratios. Young mathematicians learn about different ways to express ratios. Using sports data, they write statements about the statistics in ratio form.

Learners explore fractions. In this fraction lesson, students play an interactive game and use manipulatives to practice working with fractions.

Help your charges solve a variety of fraction and skip counting problems using a problem solving process. As a class they work through a fraction problem step-by-step, and discuss a real-life connection to the problem. Students then play...

Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...
