This is a collection of sample counting circles you can use in your classroom as part of number talks.
This task suggests ways to incorporate counting circles into classroom activities.
Students practice counting sequences by standing in a circle and counting one by one.
Counting Collections is an important mathematical routine that students or families can do with very little guidance at home. Teachers could make kits with available resources for use at home, or send suggestions for commonly found objects that families could use for counting practice at home.
Counting Collections are just as described; they are collections of items that students count. Depending on your students, you will need several different kits. Kits hold several different collections of items.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach second graders about counting cubes and creating a place value diagram.
This activity allows students to practice counting.
Students who work on this task will benefit in seeing that given a quantity, there is often more than one way to represent it, which is a precursor to understanding the concept of equivalent expressions.
This task gives students another way to practice counting and gain fluency with connecting a written number with the act of counting. This task should be introduced by the teacher and would then be a good independent center.
The most engaging way to practice counting with students is to have them count meaningful things in their lives. Since five-year-olds are very focused on themselves this is easily done by allowing them to count themselves, their friends and objects within the classroom that relate to their daily lives.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach first graders about counting rectangles, squares, and triangles in composite figures.
This challenging problem and brainteaser gives first graders an opportunity to compose and decompose squares.
This is an instructional task related to deepening place-value concepts. The important piece of knowledge upon which students need to draw is that 10 tens is 1 hundred.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach third graders about counting vertices and sides in various shapes.
The objective of this lesson is to gain automaticity counting to 100 and to establish the importance of multiples of ten. The final goal of this lesson is for students to be able to count by tens and articulate the term for this.
CountryReports provides over 35,000 pages of online content on the cultures and countries of the world. It offers unique content from around the world.
Ten printable colouring pages which depict the numbers one through ten. Each page has a spelled-out number in Michif, the language of Métis Peoples’, as well as the numerical equivalence. There are also images of culturally significant items on each page, which correspond with the respective number. There are written instructions on the bottom of each page that indicate different activities that supplement the colouring pages.
This task involves solving equations with rational coefficients, and requires students to use the distributive law ("combine like terms"). The equation also provides opportunities for students to observe structure in the equation to find a quicker solution, as in the second solution presented.
This art history video discussion examines Gustave Courbet's "The Artist's Studio; A real allegory summing up seven years of my artistic and moral life", oil on canvas, 1854-55 (Musee d'Orsay, Paris).
This task presents a real world application of finite geometric series. The context can lead into several interesting follow-up questions and projects. Many drugs only become effective after the amount in the body builds up to a certain level. This can be modeled very well with geometric series.
This art history video discussion looks at Thomas Couture's "Romans of the Decadence," 1847, oil on canvas. (Musج©e d‰غھOrsay, Paris).
