This lesson requires the students to generalize concepts of place value, multiplication, and division in order to compute the number closest to 1,000 using a calculator. Students will engage in mathematical discourse on the topics of comparing numbers and how multiplication changes the value of a number.

Students will use a drawing in order to show to divide a whole into fractions.

This lesson uses the children's rhyme "Five Little Speckled Frogs" to demonstrate subtraction through acting out and with the use of manipulatives.

In this activity, students will use different strategies in order to solve division word problems.

Students use their knowledge of fluently mutliplying number in order to race 300. Students will mutlipy with multiples of 10 (10, 20, 30, 40 or 50.)

In this activity, students will use a number line to determine the mystery numbers.

In this activity, students are introduced to the first quadrant of the coordinate plane.

In this activity, students will be introduced to making line segments with a geoboard.

In this activity, students will be introduced to making line segments with a geoboard.

Students will use mental computation in order to add, subtract, multiply and divide numbers.

Students are introduced to multiplication of a fraction by a whole number as repeated addition of the fraction.

Students will determine if fractions are greater than, less than, or equal to a given fraction.

In this activity, students will determine if fractions are greater than, less than, or equal to a given fraction.

In this activity, students play a game which builds their understanding of composing numbers to 20. The patterns and strategies students notice while playing the game are formalized through classroom discussion and follow-up activities. Ideas for assessment are also provided for the teacher.

Students build and determine the height of Cuisenaire rod towers. With a partner, students build a tower, decide the measurement tool to use, measure their tower, and make comparisons between the towers during a whole-class discussion .

In this lesson, students explore the connection between area and perimeter using one inch tiles. The lesson is based on the book "Spaghetti and Meatballs for All," written by Marilyn Burns.

Using the procedure of the "20 Questions" game, students will generate questions to deduce the "secret number" chosen on the hundreds board. Students will use many of the mathematical practices of the Common Core State Standards in order to generate their questions.
