Students practice counting sets of objects and numerals.  In this numerical identification lesson, students listen to the story, Bears Wears Buttons, and participate in a flash card activity where students must place buttons on...

Second graders engage in a lesson which focuses on adding two-digit numbers and the regrouping process. They identify when the regrouping process is necessary and make appropriate "trades" to complete an addition problem.

Students recognize how numbers are used in number stories.  In this Rooster's Off To See the World lesson plan, students participate in the story. Students complete a number activity and work on the computer to illustrate a number...

Students explore the concept of probability.  In this probability lesson, students roll a six-sided number cube and record the frequency of each outcome.  Students graph their data using a frequency chart and keep tally marks...

In this set-builder and interval notation activity, 9th graders solve and complete 10 different problems that include using set-builder and interval notation to represent an inequality. First, they rewrite the number line shown using...

In this number sense and operations worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 15 various types of multiple choice problems. First, they evaluate a few different functions shown. Then, students write numbers given in scientific notation....

Get learners to analyze two-digit numbers based on place value, and use manipulatives to add and subtract both 1 and 10. A place value chart is available, and you can project it during guided practice. Through visualizing...

While just a quick review of different ways to write a number, this could be enhanced to provide a richer exploration. Using a couple of examples, the teacher walks learners through the process of identifying and expressing numbers.  

Using a simple technique, learners practice identifying integers on a number line. As numbers, both positive and negative, are pointed to, they name them. This could be part of anticipatory set before a lesson on integers.

Practice place value skills with this lesson plan. 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.

Learners practice theories dealing with equals sign used as a balance, inequality symbols and practice utilizing a box or some other geometric shape to represent an unknown number. They assess numeracy problems embedded in language-rick...

Sixth graders identify prime and composite numbers. They participate in a hands-on activity to discover the multiples and factors of specified numbers. They write a paragraph to explain representing factors.

In this fractional parts of a whole worksheet, 5th graders examine different arrays that represent a unit. They tell what part of the whole each of given pictures represents, they measure and color fractional parts of a line, and tell...

In this subtraction skills worksheet, students solve 3 problems that require them to count the pictures representing numbers, subtract, and find the difference.

Scholars identify and continue the numerical pattern for the number of wheels on a train. Using the established pattern and its inverse, they determine whether a number of wheels is possible. Pupils finish...

Be 100 percent confident who has the most and by how much. Pupils use percentages to help make the comparisons by finding what percent one quantity is of the other. They also determine the percent differences between the two...

Help your kids develop strategies for counting. In this base-ten lesson, learners use matching cards, base 10 blocks, and dry erase markers and boards to examine the base 10 counting system.

Use several skills to solve word problems leading to systems of equations. Scholars define variables and write equations to model situations described within word problems. Pupils solve the resulting system of linear equations using...

Many problems in life have more than one possible solution, and the same is true for advanced mathematics. Scholars solve seven problems that all have at least two solutions. Then three higher-level thinking questions challenge them to...

This is a fun way to interact with numbers, and it hardly takes any preparation! Give youngsters pieces of ten cards, each of which has a number from 1-10. The cards are provided, and it's recommended to print on cardstock. Laminate if...

It's all about lines when going around. Pupils graph the relationship between the length of a side of a square and its perimeter. Class members explain the origin in context of the side length and perimeter. They compare the graph to the...

Challenge the class to utilize their knowledge of linear and quadratic functions to determine the intersection of the parent quadratic graph and linear proportional graphs. Using the pattern for the solutions, individuals develop a...

Combine total quantities and equivalent ratios in problem solving. The fifth instructional activity in a series of 29 presents problems that can be solved using equivalent ratios. Pupils use part-to-part ratios and either sums or...

Spin to win a toy car. A fun activity has pupils use a spinner in which three of the equal sections represent winning a toy car, and the fourth section represents no car. They record the number of wins after certain numbers of spins,...
