This activity incorporates coding loops with repeating pattern skills. Students will create a loop on Scratch and describe how it relates to pattern cores and repeating patterns.

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.

Interpret graphs and data collection to create a bar/chart graph in Google Slides.

This resource presents students with a task of designing the dimensions of a fence that will create the most area inside. The students are asked to create a drawing of the fence and a chart to show that although the length of the perimeter does not change, depending on the dimensions the area can vary greatly.

Students develop and solidify their understanding of the concept of "perimeter" as they engage in a portion of the civil engineering task of land surveying. Specifically, they measure and calculate the perimeter of a fenced in area of "farmland," and see that this length is equivalent to the minimum required length of a fence to enclose it. Doing this for variously shaped areas confirms that the perimeter is the minimal length of fence required to enclose those shapes. Then students use the technology of a LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT robot to automate this task. After measuring the perimeter (and thus required fence length) of the "farmland," students see the NXT robot travel around this length, just as a surveyor might travel around an area during the course of surveying land or measuring for fence materials. While practicing their problem solving and measurement skills, students learn and reinforce their scientific and geometric vocabulary.

The first skill I practice with my students on area is counting the square units inside of a regular shape.  It gives them a better understanding about area.  This activity supports sol 3.8b, counting the number of square units needed to cover a given surface in order to determine its area.  I created this jamboard for my virtual students, so that they are doing the same lesson as my in person students and I can see their work in real time.  Jamboard has been an essential Google tool for me during this school year while teaching both in person and virtual students.

I created this game to use in a place value lesson.  This activity supports sol 3.1a, read, write, and identify the value of each digit in a six-digit whole number, with and without models.  Before this lesson, my students identified digits, placement of commas to form large numbers, and read numbers written in standard form. The focus of this lesson is to read numbers written in standard form and word form.  The teacher gives the students a card with a standard form or word form number.  They travel the room to find their partner.  Then, students tell the class how they know they are partners.  Student talk is incorporated into the lesson.  This is vital and allows students to develop thoughts and convey ideas about what they are learning.

This is a google slides mini lesson on finding the mean of a set of data.  The first slide consists of the definition of mean.  Students will solve what a mean is and will make a text box and type the answer in it, then complete the slides.
