The probability is exceptional in the teaching of mathematics because students often have difficulties to understand the basic terms and the problem solving strategies. Understanding lacks of the probability concept and various types of misconceptions arise from the misleading intuition and misinterpretations of experience with the stochastic…

"Curriculum-Based Measurement" (CBM) is a direct method of academic assessment used to screen and evaluate students' skills and monitor their responses to academic instruction and intervention. Interventioncentral.org offers a math worksheet generator at no cost that creates randomly generated "math curriculum-based measures"…

The column presents activities for grades K-8 focusing on the concept of equality. A geometric-puzzle motif is used, with basic number facts reviewed for the lower grades and equivalent fractions for the upper levels. Four worksheets and a problem poster are included. (DT)

Mathematical worksheets are presented for use in the elementary school classroom. The sheets deal with arithmetic and number patterns, one being for the primary grades, the other for grades 4 to 8. (RS)

Activities for providing practice in estimating sums and products using calculators are presented. Worksheets are included. (MN)

Four worksheets are designed to provide practice with addition, subtraction, and multiplication of whole numbers and decimals. (JT)

Masters to be removed and copied are given. The worksheets are designed to reinforce computational skills and the concepts of largest or smallest numbers, as well as to provide practice is using a straightedge. (MK)

Four activity sheets are given, presenting two-player games on matching, addition, and multiplication. (MP)

Suggested activities involving number patterns, using the idea of a number machine." (MM)

Four ideas are presented, each a variation of the tic-tac-toe game. Recognizing three addends is the goal of the primary level game; experiences with basic facts and fractions are objectives for upper levels. Each worksheet includes objectives, directions, and comments. (LS)

Four worksheets showing how number patterns may be used to give extra practice and insight into the decimal numeration system and the basic properties of arithmetic. (MM)

This book is one in a series of teacher resource books developed to: (1) rescue students from the clutches of computers that drill and control; and (2) supply teachers with computer activities compatible with a mathematics program that emphasizes investigation, problem solving, creativity, and hypothesis making and testing. This is not a book…

These are some of the individual materials needed by students using the Comprehensive School Mathematics Program's Mathematics for the Upper Primary Grades, Part III. The book of "Worksheets" contains materials that are labeled with the same letter and number as the lessons with which they are to be used. The booklets "Festival of…

The Minnesota School Mathematics and Science Teaching (MINNEMAST) Project is characterized by its emphasis on the coordination of mathematics and science in the elementary school curriculum. Units are planned to provide children with activities in which they learn various concepts from both subject areas. Each subject is used to support and…

Four activities focus on estimation and mental computation. Each consists of a game that can be used on an overhead projector. The content involved finding costs and estimating sums, products, and percents. (MNS)
