Students looks at three paths and predict which path they believe will be the longest and which will be the shortest. Using rulers, yarn, or string, students measure the length of each path and record their findings.

Students fill in missing numbers on a number grid. It reinforces students' ability to write numbers from 0 to 20.

Students will determine the unknown factor in a division equation in tihs two-player game. They will take turns choosing a number card 1-10 until they find a factor that completes the unknown of the division equation. This activity can be used during small group instruction and later moved into a center activity to assist students master division facts. It includes four sets of division cards.

Students work with a partner to sort containers into three groups according to their prediction of which container holds less than 1 liter, about 1 liter, and more than 1 liter. Students check their predictions by measauring the capacity of each container using metric units.

Students use the strategy of doubling one factor and halving the other factor.

Students multiply a whole number by a fraction or a mixed number and represent the problem using a model.

Students multiply a unit fraction by a whole number using a model, number line, and an equation.

Students solve problems and choose three other two-digit numbers between 10 and 100 multiplying each of them by 10 to the first power, 10 to the second power, and 10 to the third power. Students explain the pattern they notice in the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10.

Students use a ruler to draw two different quadrilaterals, and then identify, describe, and compare the shapes that they created.

Students measure ten objects in their desk to the nearest half inch and record the data in a table.

Students work with a partner to determine whether the product is even or odd when multiplying an odd number times an even number, an odd number times and odd number, and/or an even number times an even number.

Students work with a partner to determine whether the sum is even or odd when adding an odd and even number, an odd and odd number, and/or an even and even number.

Students create a chart by collecting data on the number of pages of a book he/she can read in 30 minutes in increments of 5 minutes each. Students use the ordered pairs to graph their data in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane.

Students work with a partner sitting opposite one another with a divider between them. The players take turns placing one pattern block in each space on his/her grid without the other player seeing their work and use the names of the pattern blocks and positional language to describe where thier blocks are placed. The divider is removed to see if there is a match. Players swap roles and play again. Grids and directional cards are provided.

Students will use the game concentration in order to practice their place value skills.

Students will practice their knowledge of polygons by sorting them using a Carroll Diagram. This interactive game can be used with a whole group or small group of students to reinforce the concept of quadrilaterals as polygons. This whiteboard activity gives instant feedback if students sort incorrectly.

Students use one inch tiles to create arrays for numbers less than 25 and then record the data collected in a chart to determine if the number is prime or composite.

Students create two identical shapes, draw and write about the new shape they made. They add another shape to the first shape they made and draw and name the shapes. A word bank is provided to assist students with names of shapes as well as an example of how to make, draw, and write about the shapes.
