In this lesson, students build three-dimensional representations of shapes. They discuss attributes of their shapes, and predict if their shapes will roll, slide, or both.

Kindergartners need lots of opportunities to explore, investigate and to discuss the different properties of both two and three dimensional shapes. As students learn more geometric content, they will begin to be more sophisticated in their ways of thinking.

In this lesson, students explore equality using the equal sign. They will first explore equality with sets or groups using the equal sign then move to exploring equality with equations. The lesson could be taught consecutively in one math block but may need to extend over multiple days depending on student understanding of the concept of equality, or having equal amounts. The lesson could also be modified or extended by repeating tasks and discussion with more emphasis on subtraction.

This lesson is from Tools for NC Teachers. Students complete a series of activities related to area and perimeter. It can be used at the start of Clusters 2 or 4. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students use various strategies to solve division problems. This lesson is a good introductory lesson to dividing three-digit dividends by one-digit divisors. It allows the teacher to assess the strategies students use to solve division problems with larger numbers.

In this lesson, students apply concepts of doubling one factor and halving the other factor to solve multiplication problems. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students make sense of and solve a contextual division problem. Students interpret remainders and solidify their understanding of terminology associated with division: divisor, dividend, quotient, and remainder. This is remixable.

This game/activity is from Tools4NCTeachers. Students play a card game to work on their multiplication fluency. This is remixable.

This activity is from Tools4NCTeachers. Students make area creatures out of composite shapes. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will design a dog pen using grid paper and square tiles to develop concepts about fixed perimeter and varying areas. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students find the area of different sized dog pens when given a fixed area. Students determine which pen would give Eddie the maximum amount of space and justify their choices. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students apply their knowledge of multiplication to analyze errors made in solving multiplication problems.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will apply their understanding of operations to distinguish and sort word problems based on which operation would correctly solve the problem. This is remixable.

This lesson is Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students find the area of rectilinear figures with known side lengths and justify which home would be the best home for Larry. This is remixable.

In this lesson, students apply concepts of area and perimeter to solve multi-step problems involving real-world examples. This lesson will take 2-3 days.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will be creating monsters using a fixed area and fixed perimeter. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will model the distributive property using multiple representations and explain why it works. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will estimate and solve multi-step word problems to develop multiplication concepts. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students interact with a read aloud and apply their knowledge of factors, multiples, and arrays to solve division problems. Students will be introduced to remainders. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson, students will design a play area by dividing it into four sections. Students will decompose the total play area into parts by decomposing the length and width measures. Students will connect their drawing to the partial products strategy and area model for multiplication. This is remixable.

These two lessons are from Tools4NCTeachers. In these lessons, students model and discuss the reasoning behind the partial quotients method of division. This is remixable.
