Kids gain a deeper understanding of mathematical symbols, by playing an interactive game using flash cards. They complete an attached Missing Symbols Worksheet, flash card and an assessment are also included.

Middle schoolers use the popular game of Jeopardy to explore different mathematical concepts. They are highly engaged with the use of technology for this lesson. They function using higher-order thinking skills in order to create their...

Fourth graders draw pictures and diagrams as they attempt to solve a mathematical problem involving the arrangement of eleven tables shaped like equilateral triangles and the seating of exactly twenty-five people.

Third graders investigate two mathematic scenarios and determine which is correct. They compare adding columns and places (such as the tens place, hundreds place, and so on) and familiarize themselves with how to add larger numbers.

Upper graders explore division through fair-shares. They will review fair shares and fractions as a segway into division. They start by playing "Share Fairly" game and create mathematical arguments for solving problems. Manipulatives and...

Twelfth graders examine multiple aspects of statistics. In this mathematical reasoning lesson, 12th graders solve problems on probability, logarithms, exponential relationships and transforming rectilinear shapes. This resource contains...

Find the math in recipes. Young chefs will follow a recipe and investigate the total cost for materials. They measure amounts of food necessary for the recipe and compute the per person cost.

Seventh graders use ideas of uncertainty to illustrate that mathematics involves more than exactness when dealing with every day situations. The main standard of this lesson is statistics and probability.

Students 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...

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.

Students participate in a mathematics game in order to investigate the concept of linear equations. They practice using rotations of the game to solve the equations. The teacher can intervene as necessary.

The creation of arrays is the focus of this mathematics instructional activity. Pupils consider a situation for a theater stage performance: different amounts of people are coming to the show, and they must arrange the seats in rows of...

There are four main topics in this bundle of lesson plans. They don't need to be taught sequentially. Each lesson has three parts: a starter, a main activity, and something to help consolidate and provide reflection on concepts learned.

Students apply number and operation skills to learn how to spend a gift certificate. In this mathematical reasoning lesson, students use base 10 blocks as money and calculate how much money they have.

Students study the concept of fraction using mathematical reasoning. In this problem solving fraction lesson, students use various methods to explain their reasoning in solving fractions. Students use a number of different prompts to...

The instructional activity says it is intended for 4th grade but it is suitable for grades 1-3 as well. The class discusses what it means to add, the commutative property of addition, and mathematical reasoning. This is an exercise in...

Upper graders investigate the commutative and associative properties. In this mathematics lesson, learners explore the difference between the commutative and associative properties, and practice solving problems using these two properties.

Young scholars use technology (Internet, email) to research mathematics in nonacademic careers in order to increase their awareness and appreciation of mathematics in the "real world."

In this math worksheet, learners apply the Mathematical Induction Principle. Then they find patterns for the sums. They also read the subsequent proofs for the Induction Principle.

Math language? Set notation is used in mathematics to communicate a process and that the same process can be represented as computer code. The concept to the loop in computer code models the approach pupils take when creating a solution...

What are the chances? Teach your classes to answer this question using mathematics. The first part of a three-day lesson on determining significance differences in experimental data prompts learners to analyze the data by...

Make learning visible! Have your mathematicians follow along as you use paper strips to demonstrate the concept of multiplying unit fractions. Then, offer a different way of solving the problem using a number line. Finally, introduce the...

These four lesson plans build algebra skills for working with numbers in exponential form and for examining triangles. Be aware that in the text, scientific notation is referred to as index notation and the laws of exponents as the laws...

Young scholars research The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art and Chinese contributions to mathematics using both print and non-print sources. From their research they create an illustrated table of contents for each chapter of the...
