Engaging, Hands on Holiday Activity:

My students love this delicious project. We like to do it right before Thanksgiving. Students are given weight data concerning the materials used to build a candy and cookie turkey. They use this data to estimate the total weight of the turkey. When estimates are concluded and turkeys are built, students weigh the turkey to find the actual weight.

Students reflect and write about the differences between their estimates and the actual weight of the turkey.

An optional extension has students convert the metric measurements provided to standard measurements. This can be assigned as homework to follow up on the classroom activity.

What's included:

• Teacher instructions.
• Student worksheet with photos.
• Student worksheet without photos.
• Example photos.
• Extension worksheet.
• Extension answer sheet.
• All worksheet available in black and white or color.

How is this product useful:

• Standards based holiday activity.
• Easy to implement hands-on activity.
• Fun for the holiday!

This is a perfect math bundle for Valentine's Day. It is aligned with the 3rd grade core, but could be used for any grade 3rd or higher. All you need to do these math pages is a box of conversation hearts for each student.

• There are 2 pages, Math with Conversation Hearts, that have students estimate, round, and make patterns with their hearts in their box.
• There are 2 pages, A Fraction of My Heart, where students will write down the fraction of the different colors and sayings in their conversation box. Then they will answer questions about their fractions.
• There are 2 pages, Graphing with Hearts, where students will graph the different colors they find in their box and also graph the different sayings in their box. Then there are a few questions to answer about their graphs.
• The last page is, Measuring with Hearts, where students will use their hearts to measure different items listed on their page.

This is a simple go to lesson for practicing math skills. It is perfect for Valentine's Day and no prep.

The Median can be a difficult concept for students to master. A relevant approach to teaching the statistical value of the Median is to have students determine the High and Low temperatures of the weather for a week. To facilitate this, a worksheet has been designed as an easy way to integrate extra practice during Bell Ringers or Warm-Up activities.

Introducing a complete, 9-lesson inquiry-based unit plan for Grade 6 students, focusing on the concepts of volume and capacity. This comprehensive unit aligns with the PYP framework and includes all necessary worksheets and materials, making it easy for teachers to implement engaging, hands-on learning experiences in their classrooms.

What's included:

- 9 detailed lesson plans with clear objectives, materials lists, and step-by-step instructions

- 53 page slide set

• Printable worksheets for each lesson, including:
• Volume exploration worksheets
• Volume calculation practice sheets
• Real-world problem-solving tasks
• Reflection and self-assessment prompts
• Summative assessment materials to evaluate student understanding
• Extension activities and differentiation suggestions
• Teacher notes and background information on key concepts

Key learning outcomes:

• Understand and define volume and capacity
• Identify and convert between volume units (mL, L, kL, cm³, m³)
• Estimate and measure the volume of various containers and objects
• Calculate the volume of rectangular prisms using the formula V = l × w × h
• Differentiate between volume and capacity
• Relating volume to mass
• Apply volume concepts to real-world problem-solving scenarios

Hands-on learning:

This unit encourages students to explore volume and capacity through engaging, hands-on activities using everyday objects like bottles, cartons, and plastic containers. Teachers will need to collect these items and have measuring jugs & kitchen scales available for students to use during the lessons.

With this comprehensive unit plan, teachers will have all the resources they need to guide students through an immersive, inquiry-based learning experience that deepens their understanding of volume and capacity and helps them apply these concepts to real-world situations.
