This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important asects of the task and its potential use. Here are the first few lines of the commentary for this task: What numbers can you make with 1, 2, 3, and 4? Using the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication, we can make many different numbers. F...

CK-12 Algebra Explorations is a hands-on series of activities that guides students from Pre-K to Grade 7 through algebraic concepts.

This grade 5 unit of algebra lessons explores diagrams and equations through 1 hands-on activity and 3 worksheets.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about time and rate problems.

Students create four-legged walking robots and measure how far they travel across different types of surfaces. They design and create "shoes" to add to the robots' feet and observe the effect of their modifications on the net distance traveled across the various surface types. This activity illustrates how the specialized locomotive features of different species help them to survive or thrive in their habitat environments. The activity is best as an enrichment tool that follows a lesson that introduces the concept of biological adaptation to students.

This lesson is for Grades 4-5 math. At Home Learning Lessons are a partnership between the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, PBS North Carolina, and the William and Ida Friday Institute for Educational Innovation. Each lesson contains a video instructional lesson, a PDF lesson plan with a transcript, and a PDF file of extension activities.  

The purpose of this game is to help students think flexibly about numbers and operations and to record multiple operations using proper notation.

This is a game that helps students develop flexibility with numbers and operations. Motivated to win the game, students begin developing mathematical generalizations that can be debriefed as a whole class after the activity.

Dancing Dash!
Create a dance for Dash to do along with students to demonstrate mastery of Math (addition/subtraction) and Science (motion/force).

Students play a game called "Clear the Board." Students use parentheses in order to make expressions equal a given total.
