Finding the Area
For each of these eight rectangles, scholars write out the multiplication sentence to find the area given the side measurements. They use an example for reference and must remember to include square feet in their answer. All measurements...

More Than or Less Than?
How many apples is less than five? Each of these problems has two images, one with quantifiable details and one without (i.e. a tree with apples and an empty tree). Answers will vary as young counters draw objects onto the second image...

Estimating Sums of Money
By rounding, scholars find that adding money amounts becomes a breeze! They round two and three-digit numbers (with decimals) in these addition problems to get approximate sums. For each, mathematicians write the new addition equation...
Curated OER
Finding 10s
For beginners to addition, sets of objects are the ideal way to make this concept understandable. For each of these sets they ring 10 and count the remaining. Then, scholars fill in the addends as 10 and the remaining number. The sums...
Curated OER
Addition
Each of these addition equations involves two addends that are multiples of 10. Although there isn't any regrouping necessary, some of the sums are three-digit. The first 16 of these 28 equations are vertically oriented and the second 12...

Estimating Products
Multiplication on the fly becomes easy with the magic of estimating! Scholars round numbers up to four digits to complete multiplication problems without a calculator. They write in the new factors and the approximate product for the...

Working with 10s and 1s, Part 2
Practice place value by visualizing 10s and 1s. First graders count the cubes in each place, then write the total number at the bottom. In one particularly helpful section, they draw the cubes that will add up to a given number. Bring in...

Factor Pairs
This presentation covers a lot of ground. Square numbers, metal math computations, commutative property, ordering positive and negative integers, factoring, and real world problem solving are all covered. Use over the course of several...

Fraction Games
Explore fractions with upper graders. They will discover how to show fractions by shading the correct amount shown in a picture (giving them the idea behind part to whole). They also play multiple fraction games using dice, matching...

Hundred Board Magic
Move around the hundred board to detect number patterns and relationships! This set of worksheets might actually work magic for your mathematicians as they begin to grasp the significance of the hundred board. For each of these, they...
Curated OER
Fact Families
With a few extra numbers, these fact families would be complete! After looking at an example, scholars write in the sums and differences for six equations as part of three different fact families. This is really for beginners to this...

Addition
Looking for some straightforward addition practice? You found it! Mathematicians calculate sums between double-digit addends, using examples as guidance. There are 12 problems total. Next, they answer two simple addition word problems....

Addition Practice #1
Show young mathematicians that they are fully capable of mentally adding two-digit numbers. They start by solving 12 two-addend problems (all with two-digit numbers and aligned horizontally). There is no room to show work. Consider...

Investigation--Can You Build This?
Early learners explore shapes using colored blocks. They first get some hands-on time with the blocks and then look at beginning math concepts regarding spatial relationships. They work with a partner to build a 6-8 block tower...

Counting Caterpillars
These caterpillars each have a number sequence printed on their segmented bodies, but some numbers are missing! Look at the completed caterpillars as an example, asking kids to notice a possible pattern. They should observe that the...
Curated OER
Ordering Sets of Measures
Using numbers with varying units (money, length, volume, distance, weight), scholars put each set in order from least to greatest. There are five numbers in each set, and they are all whole numbers with units attached (numbers in each...

Subtraction Practice, Part 5
Use this basic worksheet to practice two-digit subtraction in your second grade class. Learners solve three sections of problems, two of which involve money symbols, and write their answers in space provided. All problems are written in...

Counting by 10s
You've got their attention once candy is the focus of a math instructional activity! Learners count by 10 to determine how many candies are in each set, which are all grouped by 10. There is an example and number line to help them, and...
