Your learners will examine probability through experiments and dice games. Using a computer, your class will perform simple experiments to collect and analyze data to determine the probability of different experimental results. Students...

Students investigate the concepts related to the practice of using probability. They review the use of mean, median, and mode within the context of previous instruction. Students predict outcomes and calculate them in small groups. The...

Students identity simple geometric shapes. In this early geometry lesson, the teacher introduces students to triangles, squares, and rectangles, then students identify and classify the shapes as they are found in the classroom. To...

Students determine the differences between goods and services, and saving and spending. In this economics lesson, students listen to a rhyming story about a bunny with money. They play a matching game with the associated cards and work...

Learners examine and identify the similarities and differences of two-dimensional shapes. They play an I-Spy shape game, participate in a classroom Shape Search, and create illustrations of shapes for a shape collage.

Twelfth graders identify the parts of an algebraic equation. They consider the many uses of algebra in daily life. They play a game, Algebra Match, where student pairs work to solve equations listed on index cards.

Second graders participate in a math game using dimes and pennies. They practice combining coins to make a given amount of money, and they use the combinations to practice adding two digit numbers. Teacher assessment strategies and...

Seventh graders explore fraction conversion. After identifying equivalent expressions, they demonstrate how to convert mixed numbers to improper fractions. In groups of three, 7th graders play a "Fraction Go Fish" game where they match...

Fifth graders explore the concept of equivalency. In this math instructional activity, 5th graders write their own word problems and pair them to appropriate algebraic number sentences.

Students play a game in which they name geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson, students ask "yes and no" questions to determine which shape one of their classmates has chosen. They ask questions that lead them to the name of...

Third graders investigate the concept of putting ordinal numbers in order from one to twenty. They work in a group to hold cards with a number and then line up in numerical order. Then students recognize the number and play a game with...

In this math worksheet, young scholars learn to estimate sums and differences by completing step by step exercises. There is one word problem which is the example, and then students can choose from other estimation activities to do with...

Fifth graders order decimals from least to greatest and greatest to least. In this decimal order instructional activity, 5th graders complete an online review of comparing 2 digit numbers. Students then complete a decimal order card game...

Students explore the concept of misleading statistics. In this misleading statistics lesson, students play a game of tag and graph the number of times each student gets tagged. Students use the graph to determine the fastest runner in...

For this math facts worksheet, students read about using the circle drill speed chart to practice addition facts, division facts, multiplication facts, and subtraction facts. Student use the blank charts to practice the skill.

Students see how division is used to help solve probability problems. They use tables as data structures where they are used to count outcomes and to compute probabilities. Students use games to help solve probability problems.

Learners explore the concept of fractions. For this fractions lesson, students perform basic operations such as addition and subtraction with fractions. Learners play a game on the computer called 'Fraction Four' that gives students...

Young scholars identify the letter names of notes, demonstrate simple rhythms, and combine the two to play short melodic phrases using Bug Band. They create their own melodies and play them using Bug Band and various instruments.

Bring about the change you want to see in the world  or at least in your lesson plans. Young mathematicians learn about translation and reflections by applying them to polygons on the coordinate plane. Results provide data to...

Pupils examine sketch map of Burrets' Trail at the Nightengale Archaeological Center, interpret map symbols to play game, and identify reasons people modify environment to meet their basic needs.

Fourth graders use a sketch map to interpret map symbols in order to participate in a game. Using the game cards, they identify reasons why people modify their environment to meet their needs. They compare and contrast how people lived...

3rd-4th graders will review multiplication skills in a Jeopardy-style game. The object of the game is to correctly answer as many single-digit multiplication facts as possible. Tip: Small groups can "play" against each other to review...

Learners review coin identification and play a game in which they must match a coin to its value.

Students review preparation of payroll records and practice these skills while playing games on the computer. They follow a student outline and complete online activities and quiz.
