Algebra concepts can be challenging for students in upper elementary and middle school. This lesson introduces students to the idea of a missing or unknown number while also considering the order of operations.

Let's better understand multiplication and division concepts! Use this lesson to help students understand inverse operations between multiplication and division.

Students will have fun learning the Read, Draw, Write (RDW) strategy on two-step, mixed operation problems. First they will learn RDW, and then they will practice it in a game called Four in a Row.

Word problems? No problem! In this lesson, your students will learn how to approach solving multi-step word problems with mixed operations with a step-by-step plan.

Make sure your students understand the word problem before they begin to solve it! Use this as a stand alone lesson or a pre-lesson for Two-Step Word Problems with Mixed-Operations - Gamified!

Use this lesson to teach your students how to determine if they should use addition, subtraction, or both operations to solve a word problem by following four simple steps.

Teach your students to add and subtract fractions with like denominators using a strategy that works for both operations: converting mixed numbers into improper fractions and back again!

Celebrating the Chinese New Year is fun for family and friends! Use this lesson to teach your students some of the holiday's traditions and events as they practice solving word problems, which involve time and all four math operations.

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.

Teach your students about money and fractions with this game! They’ll be converting fractions, citing money amounts, and even using a number line while playing a dice game.

In this lesson, students will learn how to understand that a fraction is a number that describes the relationship between a part and a whole.

Teach your students to create equivalent fractions by multiplying by different fraction forms of 1 whole like 2/2 or 4/4. This lesson also includes drafts of area models.

Teach your students whole numbers as fractions in three easy steps. Using this lesson plan your class will create, label and illustrate whole numbers as fractions on a number line.

Support your students as they collect, organize, and discuss measurement data! Use this lesson independently or alongside Making Measurements for Line Plots.

Make the number work for you! Use this lesson to teach your students to add mixed numbers with like denominators using the strategy of decomposition.

It’s pizza time! Students will be introduced to the concept of partitioning shapes to create fractions that demonstrate halves, fourths, and eighths. This lesson is the first of two lessons that address second grade fraction concepts.

In this lesson, your students will use hands-on visuals to learn about fractions! Your students will love using manipulatives to practice placing fractions on a number line.

Want to strengthen your student’s multiplication and division skills? This lesson uses fact families to help students practice those skills.

Tie into what they already know! Use money to teach fractions in this engaging lesson.

Help your students use multiplication to support their conceptual understanding of division. Use this lesson alone or as a pre-lesson for Division: Solving for Unknown Factors.

Get your students thinking like mathematicians with this lesson that has them crafting questions for multi-step word problems. It may be taught independently or as support for the lesson Multi-Step Word Problems? No Problem!

Input some patterns to T-charts in this lesson. Use this lesson about input and output boxes as a precursor to finding patterns within word problems.

In this lesson, students use cubes to build arrays to represent factor pairs of numbers within 100. They use this understanding to identify multiples as well.
