I can remember what happened five years ago, but I can't recall what I did last week! High school psychology students analyze how memory, cognition, and language impact one another. Hands-on activities, memory exercises, and research...

Psychologists use statistics? Scholars investigate the research behind the methodology of statistical analysis. Using hands-on practice, case-studies, and scatterplots, they complete various tasks to understand the very roots of high...

Imagine seventh graders developing a school wide plan to promote respect in their school. That's the vision behind the second lesson in the R-E-S-P-E-C-T series. In preparation for designing a school-wide media campaign, class members...

Second graders solve change unknown story problems using a number line. This lesson gives students a new strategy to attach change unknown word problems.

Third graders can solve multiplication and division problems quickly by recognizing the relationship between the two operations.

Third graders can solve multiplication and division problems quickly by recognizing the relationship between the two operations.

Second grade students are asked to apply two complementary processes: counting and grouping. The conceptual understanding of the place value of a number and combining/separating numbers using place value, are critical aspects of...

Combine addition of numbers identified from playing cards with physical activity to engage students and increase overall fitness. This lesson plan describes a twenty to twenty five minute series of activities that require two decks of...

Combine mental math with physical activity to engage students and increase overall fitness. This lesson plan describes a twenty to twenty five minute series of activities that require pre-made math flashcards that can be easily created...

This site by Suzanne Alejandre offers lesson plans, activities and resources covering topics in algebra, geometry, data analysis, number & operations, and measurement. The contents of this site are aligned with the NCTM standards and...

Skittles - yum!! You will instantly have your student's attention when you teach about arrays using Skittles. This detailed lesson walks you through the steps, provides worksheets for varying math levels, and includes a video of the...

The big idea of this lesson is to have students write their own word problems to help them have a better understanding of mathematical operations, as they relate to real-world scenarios. Pictures and videos of the lesson in the process...

Numbers don't stop at 20! We spend the last week or so of school looking at the numbers beyond 20. Today we do it by looking at the number line.

This lesson builds a foundation for adding larger numbers which is supported by the Common Core standards for second grade.

Do you know where a number would be? Can you use a number line as a tool to solve problems?

Not everyone solves a problem in the same way. Reinforcing that different strategies can be used effectively is the goal of this lesson.

This lesson is an informal assessment of student understanding of the base ten system, a critical area in the Common Core.

At the end of the year, a lot is going on in our classroom. We continue our center routine for additional practice and to allow for end of the year testing to be completed.

It is important to assess students periodically to plan for future lessons to meet student needs.

This activity provides an opportunity for visual learns to think about segments of time during the school day.

Children need to move from the manipulative expressions of the distributive property into the mathematical equations eventually. This lesson is the first step in leading them to that goal.

Second graders can find patterns in 4-digit numbers that will help them when counting over decades and centuries.

Second graders will become more comfortable making sense of equations presented in missing answer (traditional) and missing number ( nontraditional) formats.
