Learners decide how many rides it takes at a county fair to benefit from bargain tickets.

In these math word problems worksheets, learners complete five different math word problems using simple addition to solve the equations about food.

Develop a formula based upon numerical computations. The 31st part of a 33-part unit has the class determine the formula to convert a temperature in Celsius to a temperature in Fahrenheit. They do this by making comparisons between the...

Investigate the volume of cones and cylinders. Scholars develop formulas for the volume of cones and cylinders in the 10th lesson plan of the module. They then use their formulas to calculate volume.

This is an amazing 33-page resource for teaching multiplication! Your mathematicians will discover the connection between multiplication and repeated addition. They also will work collaboratively with arrays while studying zoo animals....

Win the war of the worlds! Scholars solve a variety of problems related to an alien invasion. They determine where spaceships have landed on a coordinate map, devise a plan to avoid the aliens, observe the aliens, and break a code to...

Work with fractional cookies. The three-part assessment task checks the pupils' ability to find the product of fractions and whole numbers, mixed numbers, or fractions. Learners determine the amount of ingredients needed and how many of...

Make the cookies healthy. The assessment task asks pupils to determine the number of cookies they could make based on a given amount of ingredients. Given two sugar substitutes, learners determine which substitute would be better and...

Traffic is a very real concern for any Urban dweller. After watching a video showing various traffic issues and solutions, learners group up to discuss and develop innovative traffic solutions of their own. They explore vocabulary and...

Conduct research on the Internet about labyrinths and mazes to learn about proportions and ratios. Inquisitive minds design their own maze, one maze is chosen and proportionately enlarged to 20 feet by 30 feet. This is a fun challenge...

Scholars learn to order rational numbers in the seventh lesson in a series of 21. Reasoning about numbers on a number line allows for this ordering.

Do you want to use the resource? Absolutely. Scholars learn about absolute value and its relation to magnitude and distance on a number line. They compare numbers in context by applying absolute value. 

Multiplication and division of decimals by whole numbers is the focus of these assessment worksheets. Learners solve equations by showing their work in order to arrive at the correct answer.

Understanding of probability will probably increase with the use of a refined resource. Pupils learn to distinguish between dependent and independent events as they calculate the probabilities of these types of events in various...

And they're off! While two runners are at track practice, your mathematicians' job is to find out who leaves the other in the dust. The activity provides a variety of data that can be computed into unit rates for comparisons. Available...

Whoops! Travis accidentally put too much butter into the recipe. Your bakers must find out how to alter the recipe to accommodate different changes by using unit rates and ratios . The activity has multiple parts and calculations with...

Individuals read tables with temperatures and times in order to distinguish the town with the lowest temperature or most extreme temperature difference. Each of the eight questions has three sub-questions that use the same charts. 

Not too much, not too little, but just right in the middle. Using researched census population data, young statisticians plot population data over time. They develop an idea of midpoints to estimate populations for years that census data...

Examine data and graph solutions on a coordinate plane with this algebra lesson. Young problem-solvers identify the effect of the slope on the steepness of the line. They use the TI to graph and analyze linear equations.

Fractions, decimals, and percents all say the same thing! Show your classes how to convert between the three forms using visual and numeric representations. Then lead them to an understanding of scientific notation.

Like all of the Problem Solving units, this one aims to introduce students to the underlying ideas of mathematics through a problem. The problem here requires a knowledge of arithmetic and the use of some algebra. In this unit we see how...
