Your second graders explore two digit addition with regrouping. They will investigate problem solving strategies within the context of a trip to the zoo. Multiple resources and assessments are provided.

Pupils visualize distance-rate-time problems by using bar models. The lesson presents examples of four different types of rate problems and shows how they can be solved using bar models and equations. Each example is followed...

Provide a meaningful context for learning about the division of fractions with this upper-elementary math lesson. Presented with a simple, real-world problem, young mathematicians work in small groups to develop visual models...

Why do we have to do so much work? Scholars learn how to set up bar models to represent a situation involving work. They use these bar models to help set up equations with rational coefficients to solve the problem situation.

Money and measurement are often expressed as decimal numbers. Here are 20 well-worded problems intended to put decimal numbers in a real-world context. Learners will add, subtract, multiply, and divide to determine the answer to each...

What does translating points on a number line have to do with solving inequalities? Young mathematicians first learn about translations of points on a number line, and then use this information to solve linear inequalities in one variable.

Create a linear equation for a problem when the intercept information is not given. The two-day lesson introduces the class to the point-slope form, which can be used for problems when the initial conditions are not provided. Pupils...

A 33-page packet focuses on fifth-grade math concepts. Learners practice rounding numbers to the hundred thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, ones, hundredths, thousandths, and hundred thousandths. They also compare whole...

Given a certain amount of boys and certain amount of girls, how many children are there total in the class? Assess learners' ability to use addition and subtraction strategies when solving word problems.

All hail the king! Young mathematicians put their skills to the test as they strive to become the king of math.

Use patterns to your advantage! The Pythagorean Theorem allows learners to find missing sides of right triangles. Problems include those with both rational and irrational lengths. 

If you think Dr. Seuss has no place in a math classroom, then take a look at this resource. Based on the classic children's book Green Eggs and Ham, this sequence of activities engages children learning to model real-world contexts...

In this problem solving skills worksheet, students solve 4 problems that require them to write word probems for the 4 equations shown. Students also create their own multi-step equation and corresponding word problem.

In this problem solving strategy worksheet, students solve 6 math word problems that require them to use logical reasoning skills.

In this guess and check worksheet, students use the strategy guess and check to solve math word problems containing one and two digit numbers. Students complete 6 problems.

In this math patterns worksheet, students use the problem solving strategy of understand, plan, solve, and look back to help them find patterns to solve word problems.

In this math word problems worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to solve 5 story problems that require them to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.

In this math word problems worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to solve 7 story problems that require them to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.

In this basic math word problem worksheet, learners practice their math skills as they solve 4 word problems that require them to add and subtract.

There is a 100 percent chance this resource will help pupils connect percents to financial literacy. Young mathematicians use their knowledge of percents to find markups and markdowns in financial situations in the seventh segment in a...

While there are many types of equations to solve, the main focus here is on quadratics. Starting with a quick review of the different methods, learners are guided through the solving process and are challenged to solve higher level...

I'm a fan of clearing the denominator, but solvers can also find common denominators and cross multiply to solve the linear equations on the learning exercise. Each of the six problems has rational coefficients.

In these math lesson plans, students discuss how math problems are written to reflect real-world situations. They complete an online Math Hunt using specific web tools, and work individually to create their own Math Hunts....
