Parents are able to see student work as soon as it is posted. In this activity, students will solve a math problem with three integers and explain their thinking using SeeSaw.

This course features a video review of addition up to the sum of ten for first graders.

CK-12 Algebra Explorations is a hands-on series of activities that guides students from Pre-K to Grade 7 through algebraic concepts.

This lesson integrates language arts, music, and math. The children will listen to the story "Count on Bunnies". They will be given the opportunity to act out the story and solve bunny equations. After listening to the song "Five Young Rabbits," the children will take turns being rabbits and pantomiming the actions as the class sings. The children will combine the rabbits at the end of each verse to see how many rabbits have been added. Then they will work in pairs to create their own rabbit equations.

Teaching addition with 10 frames? Make it fun with Doodle Buddy! Doodle Buddy is available for iPads and Chromebooks and allows students to draw, stamp, stencil, and create doodles. With a 10 frame background, students are able to stamp their addition problems with ease and show their learning in a fun and creative way.

Richard grew up in Kenya as a Maasai boy, herding his family’s cattle, which represented their wealth and livelihood. Richard’s challenge was to protect their cattle from the lions who prowled the night just outside the barrier of acacia branches that surrounded the farm’s boma, or stockade. Though not well-educated, 12-year-old Richard loved tinkering with electronics. Using salvaged components, spending $10, he surrounded the boma with blinking lights, and the system works; it keeps lions away. His invention, Lion Lights, is now used in Africa, Asia, and South America to protect farm animals from predators. The resource includes a lesson plan/book card, a design challenge, and copy of a design thinking journal that provide guidance on using the book to inspire students' curiosity for design thinking. Maker Challenge: Your challenge is to use broken or old technology and other available resources to create a prototype that can be used to protect your home. This could involve tinkering, hacking, or redesigning the components of the technology to meet your needs.

A document is included in the resources folder that lists the complete standards-alignment for this book activity.

The purpose of this task is for students to find different pairs of numbers that sum to 9.

In this lesson, students will be creating their own story problems and turning them into a scratch game. Resources for pseudo coding cards can be found here: https://resources.scratch.mit.edu/www/cards/en/scratch-cards-all.pdfAnd a remixable story can be found here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/300655911/. Students will need multiple days to plan, write, code and complete their story with the makey makey.Makey Makey lesson plans: makeymakey.com/lessonsAdditional modifications: Students may view tutorials to assist them in creating their games.It may be easier for students to create games in small groups so there is more time for collaboration and game design within the group. This will also allow for more time for students to play their classmate's games.Elementary Teachers,please look out for a scratch jr version to remix for k-3 games.

Students will complete the missing part of the number bond using addition or subtraction.

The purpose of this task is for students to select 2 numbers from a set that sum to 5 (or any other number).

This Nrich game can give pupils the opportunity to use their number knowledge and it can be adapted to stretch even the highest attainers. In its simplest form it can be accessed by anyone in the class who is able to connect the number of spots on a die to the numeral that represents it. Altering the rules and including operations will give the children opportunities to explore ideas about what makes a "good" game and to develop winning strategies to play their games.

Students will be able to calculate the number of dots needed to make ten by looking at the ten frame flashcard.
