Pupils explore the many representations of linear functions by completing a matching activity to connect the multiple representations of a function. They then reinforce the connection as individuals create the different representations...

Use a kinesthetic activity to elucidate ordered pairs and coordinate planes. Arrange desks in a square array and distribute to learners cards with ordered pairs based on the locations of their seats. By having various groups of...

What a fun way to practice counting for youngsters! Especially effective for kinesthetic and visual learners, this activity has scholars stacking "books" on a "bookshelf." Templates are provided for the bookshelves and books; consider...

It is not always easy to walk the straight and narrow. In the sixth portion of a nine-part unit, groups actively recreate a graph depicting motion. Individuals walk toward or away from a motion detector while trying to match a given...

Your scholars will be glad to know there are helpful tricks when multiplying and dividing by 10; show them this concept through visual examples as they complete these word problems. Using sets of peas they fill in four multiplication...

Did you know that leaky faucets waste $10 million worth of water? Conservationists perform an experiment and draw best-fit lines to explore how the US Geological Society determined this value.

Young scientists transform themselves into rivers, oceans, clouds, and drops of water in order to explore the water cycle. After assigning and explaining to students their different roles in the activity, the teacher reads aloud a...

Young elementary-schoolers are constantly reminded to share with others. Use this familiar concept in this equal distribution activity. Scholars choose either 10, 16, or 28 as the number of marbles they have to give out. Then, they...

Practice expanded and standard notation in this beach-themed addition activity. You will need to cut out the shell templates, which are in three groups: ones, tens, and hundreds. Learners choose one from each group, then use the...

Kinesthetic learners will have a great time with numbers as they play with colored dough using these numeral recognition mats. The resource outlines number 0-9, each large enough for a full-page. Print them out and laminate, then use in...

These shapes are pointing all over the place. Learners examine rows of crazy shapes to find the one pointing in the same direction as the first in the row. Keep in mind, these aren't the shapes your mathematicians are used to. Because...

Factoring is an essential component in algebra, and this worksheet prepares learners with a quick reference guide and examples. After they find all the factors, they decipher whether the number is prime or composite.

Young mathematicians solve linear equations by drawing models of algebra tiles using colored pencils. To finish, they solve the same equations algebraically and check their answers using a graphing calculator.

Kids are challenged to make a human number line. They line up, holding numbers from -10 to 10. They then add and subtract both positive and negative numbers, using themselves as the numbers on the number line. This is a great way to...

Explore scientific notation in this mathematics lesson. Young mathematicians explore multiple representations of large number in scientific notation through the use of models, visual representation and expanded form. The lesson provided...
