Sixth graders will practice dealing with whole numbers using the order of operations and performing calculations using the four basic operations. The lesson plan also includes practical investigation into the use of rational numbers.

Students perform an activity in small groups in order to investigate different types of shapes found in photographs taken with a digital camera. The integration of technology is used to engage students in the lesson.

Students investigate the concepts of adding, estimating, and ordering. The lesson uses the alphabet as an example illustration. The students practice the calculations in class in order to ensure mastery.

Fifth graders become familiar with problem solving strategies of guess and check and working backwards. They demonstrate the basic concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division using a math sentence.

Students demonstrate some common operations done while using fractions based upon mathematical standards. They are also changing common fractions to decimals with estimation skills and the use of a calculator.

Learners investigate the four basic operations of mathematics that are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The use of a technology game is part of the lesson. They demonstrate the proper use of a calculator as part of...

Fifth graders work on the different possibilities of reaching the number 100. The class is divided into homogeneous groups for cooperative learning. The lesson uses discussion questions to help with problem solving.

Fourth graders are asked to name different shapes.Four to five students to share their answers with the class. The teacher leads the discussion in geometry about the properties associated with shapes.

Eighth graders become engaged in a instructional activity in geometry to improve mathematical skills. They construct triangles, segments, and points using Geometer's Sketchpad to demonstrate how dilations of triangles and rectangles...

Students recognize and identify shapes in their environment. They investigate why objects can be composed of several different shapes. They follow a pattern to recreate designs using various shapes.

Young scholars practice figuring out how items have been sorted. They also sort buttons in small cooperative groups. They color and sort their own paper buttons and then give their button sort to another student to see if he or she can...

Second graders view clips from the animated series Math Monsters, and discuss the many ways patterns can be found in the world around us. Following the video portion of the lesson, 2nd graders visit a variety of Web sites to assess their...
