Mic Drop Maths is a mathematics podcast for 5th graders based on the VA Standards of Learning. Each episode addresses one standard and is broken into segments including concept, real-world application, math history, literature connections, misconceptions, and more! There is music, sound effects, jokes, and student voice in each engaging and entertaining episode. 

This is a google slides mini lesson on diameter and radius of a circle.  The first slide consists of a definition of a diameter and radius.  Students will discuss and realize the difference between the two.  Then they will make a text box for the answer.  They will type the answer in the text box, then complete the slides.

Identifying and describing parts of a circle and the relationship between the parts. Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the  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.

Students will find helpful resources for learning and practicing math skills and processes in this eMediaVA collection.

This collection has resources organized by grade level teachers can use to teach math.

Video Description:  At NASA everything begins with an idea. Physical models help NASA engineers and technicians test those ideas before building full-scale versions. Learn more about the important role physical modeling, building prototypes and mathematics play in engineering solutions.  Video Length:  3:11.NASA eClipsTM is a suite of online student-centered, standards-based resources that support instruction by increasing STEM literacy in formal and nonformal settings.  These free digital and downloadable resources inform and engage students through NASA-inspired, real-world connections.NASA eClips Real World segments (grades 6-8) connect classroom mathematics to 21st Century careers and innovations.  They are designed for students to develop an appreciation for mathematics through real-world problem solving.

This is a task from the Illustrative Mathematics website that is one part of a complete illustration of the standard to which it is aligned. Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important aspects of the task and its potential use. An additional source is added from VDOE to provide a foundation for identifying polygons and other support related to working with polygons.

This is a slide presentation for a complete lesson on a Python program using turtle. Lesson plan and example Python program are attached.
