Open House: Challenger Oaks—Geometry by Design
Teachers will engage their students in classifying 2-dimensional shapes through a real-world experience. Students will review, design, and use technology as they classify figures using common attributes.
Understanding Multiplication Using Cell Phone Plans
Students will multiply to compare cell phone plans in order to determine the best deal and to connect the standard algorithm to other multiplication strategies and place value in the real world.
Students Discussing the Problem as a Group
Demystifying Remainders
This lesson will introduce fourth-grade students to the concept of a remainder and the meaning of a remainder in the context of a word problem.
Running the Race with Equivalent Fractions
Students will relate positions on a relay track to a number line. Through discovery, the students will be able to identify and represent fractions and equivalent fractions on a number line.
Students working in group
Developing Strategies to Multiply by Two-Digit Numbers
Students will use a Three-Act Task structure to collect data, create a frequency table and dot plot, and use the organized information to solve a problem.
Avoiding Common Subtraction Errors
Students will perform an error analysis of common subtraction errors related to the standard algorithm.
Let’s Go the Distance!
Students will collaboratively work together to convert measurements with non-standard units, a queen's scepter, within a given non-standard unit system.
