Deer mice live in many different habitats across North America. In each subpopulation, their fur coloring is a good match to their habitat. How did this come to be? Students run simulated experiments controlling habitat, predators, and displays of data. An optional datasheet can be used to structure quantitative work. The activity includes suggested questions for students to investigate, with particular attention to how the adaptation occurs solely at the population level, while natural selection operates on individuals.

The series of lessons allows students to review the concepts of mutations, adaptations and natural selection by studying a population of pocket mice through a video clip and then applying their knowledge through a simulation game.

Science Instructional Plans (SIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Science Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the content and the scientific and engineering practices found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This video is part of the Learn and Grow with WHRO TV series. Watch Nicole Neice teach about addition.

This is a google slides lesson on adding integers by modeling.  Students drag and drop the counters to model the equation then solve.

In this lesson, the student will develop a simple addition algorithm using a flow chart.  Students will then translate the flowchart into programming instructions that can be input into the Java language to complete their first addition Java program.  Students will then expand on this program to include allowing the user to input the integers from the Java scanner.

These Google Slides are intended to model how to use a Ten Frame when adding to 10.

An interactive lesson for students to practice counting, adding, and writing additon problems within 20.

Adding and subtracting whole numbers.   Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom. 

In this lesson, students practice translating between words and algebraic expressions. Students also draw models for these expressions.

Estimating and finding sums and differences of whole numbers Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

 My students need lots of practice to master addition with regrouping, so I created this fun game to help them practice.  This activity supports sol 3.3b, create and solve single-step and multi-step practical problems involving sums or differences of two whole numbers, each 9,999 or less.  The students make a big circle around the room and play a cakewalk style game.  When the teacher stops the music, they sit in front of the closest card and add the two numbers.   Students use their knowledge of place value and estimation to determine if their answer is reasonable.  Movement activities are always a big hit in my classroom!  This game is one of my students’ favorites!
