Eighth graders determine the square and cube roots of given numbers in this math lesson. They determine the missing number in a sequence. Additionally, they calculate the interior and exterior polygon angles.

Students create squares of different sizes on a geoboard. They find and describe a pattern. Students use the pattern to determine the number of squares possible on a 10-by-10 geoboard. They create squares with a horizontal base (and...

Elementary learners explore coin mint dates. First, they listen to the book Alexander Who Used to be Rich Last Sunday by Judith Viorst. They then sort a collection of coins according to their mint date and put them in order from oldest...

Middle schoolers add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers. They find the square and the cube of numbers. They create a game incorporating computation on rational numbers. Everyone works together to write and evaluate...

Learners photograph shapes around their school and create a shape movie.  For this shape hunting lesson, students recognize shapes in a shape hunt.  Learners can identify the shapes recorded by others in the class.

Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...

Students study geometric shapes, lines, and the primary colors as they create Mondrian-like art prints.

Second graders identify and describe basic geometric solids. Working as a class, 2nd graders describe geometric solids using the proper vocabulary and counting faces, bases, corners, and edges. In pairs, students use a computer drawing...

First graders listen to story "The Pentathlon," discuss importance of number zero, create 100 badge to wear, look for and circle 100 sight words in newspaper, create pictures made with 100 squares of paper, and use interactive writing to...
