Students sketch base-ten blocks in this lesson that builds both number sense and fluency adding to 20!

In this lesson, your students will get hands-on practice comparing quantities! Students will compare using buttons, blocks, and their classmates.

Let’s start building numbers! Just as building skyscrapers is a visual representation of mathematics, students will use the visual representation of base-ten blocks to add—or build—onto a two-digit number.

Students will get to explore three-digit numbers through base-ten blocks and written form. Students will get plenty of practice identifying the place values of a number both individually and with the class.

Area models are building blocks to more complicated multiplication and division. Use this lesson to refresh students on the relationship between multiplication and area to prepare them to use the area models strategy with larger numbers.

Your students will “hop their way” into understanding place value with this fun and active game! In this lesson, they will learn that changing the order of the digits in a number changes its value.

With this activity, students will identify shapes, build 3-D shapes, and practice describing shapes with a partner.

Give your students some early practice with shapes using this simple lesson. Young learners will have a great time creating shapes using pieces of string.

Use this lesson to review three-digit addition strategies including base-ten drawings, number lines, and the standard algorithm.

In this review focused math lesson, students will get a chance to practice and share their knowledge of patterns and numbers!

In this lesson, students engage in interesting hands-on activities that help them discover the properties of parallel, perpendicular, and intersecting lines. Your little mathematicians will have a blast as they learn about geometry.

Students will learn to model mixed number subtraction with manipulatives using this hands-on lesson plan.

This tasty lesson will teach second graders about fractions using cookies.

Help your students subtract with confidence by sharing two different strategies. Use this lesson to build on students’ understanding of subtraction and to evaluate this key skill.

What does it feel like to take 120 steps? In this lesson, students practice counting and completing word problems up to 120.
