Have your "whole" group get a "piece" of fun in this sweet and tasty math game!

Slice those pieces and mix it up! In this lesson that follows “Slice It Up! Part One,” students will begin recognizing different ways to create equal shares in whole shapes, creating a fraction poster by the end of the lesson.

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

In this lesson, students will construct their own number lines and bar models to find equivalent fractions.

Imagine what that interjection might be! As students learn about the purpose and use of interjections, they will use their imaginations to match interjections with a variety of emotions.

In this fun lesson plan, your students will love learning all about describing location using games, stories, and dancing! This can be used as a stand alone or pre-lesson for the Where is It? lesson plan.
