Learners measure the distance between two points.  In this measurements lesson, students read books about birds that migrate and measure the distances that each bird flies when it migrates.  Learners discuss the information as...

Fifth graders construct data graphs based upon sets of data. For this graphing lesson, 5th graders read the text If the World Were a Village and discuss how types of graphs accurately represent a large population. Students construct...

Students identify the length of an inch. For this measurement lesson, students read Inch by Inch and predict how many inches long various objects are. Students practice measuring the objects by using an inch ruler.

In this New York state mathematics test, 3rd graders complete a total of 25 multiple choice questions related to 3rd grade math concepts. An answer key is included.

Learners create a reading nook. In this measurement lesson, students find a spot in the classroom to turn into a reading nook. They need to measure how much space they need to fit learners and supplies into their nook. 

Second graders develop spatial sense, such as above and below. In this spatial sense lesson, 2nd graders go on a scavenger hunt and to piece together the clues. Each clue has a question using spatial vocabulary. 

Students review the concept of measuring length. In groups, they travel to various centers throughout the classroom. They experiment with using different objects to measure the length of items given to them by their teacher. They are...

In this mathematics test bookelt, students solve problems studied during the year.  They solve problems covering topics such as probability, angle intersection, commission, percent, exponents, similar figures, and reading and...

Learners learn about sorting and classifying objects by size while reading Eric Carle's "The Grouchy Ladybug". In this sorting and classifying instructional activity, students first listen to and interact with the story. They then look...

In this eighth grade mathematics worksheet, 8th graders are presented with questions indicative of those on the eighth grade mathematics examination.  The twelve page worksheet contains six free response questions that cover a...

In this eighth grade learning exercise, 8th graders assess their knowledge of the major topics of algebra and geometry covered in eighth grade.   The lesson contains twelve questions and a mathematics reference sheet.

Pupils follow directions to make a stained glass window design of regular and irregular polygons with specific geometric elements. In this geometry lesson plan, students also analyze other classmate's designs.

Students explore the physical aspect of a slope. In this algebra lesson, students graph a slope and write an equation for a slope. They identify slopes of zero, negative lines and positive lines.

Students experiment with point graphs. In this math lesson plan, students are divided into groups and perform an experiment to see how high a ball bounces, recording their results on a point graph. Students then answer provided questions.

Students measure the speed of moving marbles and use the results to calculate velocity and momentum. They analyze the events preceding a Japanese train crash.

Students view a video and discuss different kinds of feet found in the animal kingdom. They make prints using paint, rubber stamps and their own feet and then measure and compare the tracks.

Students estimate the least squares fit line for a set of data. They understand error involved in least square fit lines. They solve application problems using least square fit lines.

Third graders study the meaning of the digits an any whole numbers with up to 3 decimal places. They order decimals with up to 3 decimal places and perform measuring tasks, using a range of units and scales.

Students determine expected values of experiments and explore distributions of experiments. They guess as to how many times a coin will flip heads in fifty tries. They flip a coin fifty times graphing the results on a histogram. They...

Pupils imagine that they own a sneaker company. They are asked how they would know if their company made a profit. Students determine the number of sneakers of each type they need to sell in order to "break even." They are asked how...

Students create ways to find the number of square miles that lie in a triangle having vertices at A, B, and C. They compute the distance between two points and use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. Finally, students...

Students use the Geometer's Sketchpad to illustrate possible answers to a parallelogram problem. As a class, they discuss the point-slope and linear equation forms. Individually, students solve their equations and check the results on...

Students determine just how large the sun is. In this solar system lesson, students follow the prescribed steps to draw a box that represents the size of the sun and its mass compared to the entire solar system.

Young scholars construct clocks and then learn how to read a clock face, tell time, and determine how much time has elapsed.
