- Students earn classroom dollars, set up a bank book, pay fines, figure interest and pay taxes.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 4 Mathematics)
- By Cecelia Zimerle.
- Practicing multiples using Pascal's Triangle
- This lesson will introduce students to Pascal's Triangle. Students will be introduced to the patterns in Pascal's Triangle and complete a 9 level triangle. Then they will color the multiples of specified numbers. This lesson uses resources of Shodor Education Foundation, Inc.

- Partners in measurement
- Students will apply their knowledge and demonstrate their ability to use standard and non-standard customary units in a cooperative measurement activity.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 4 Mathematics)
- By Vanessa Thomas.
- Origami geometry
- Students apply their knowledge of geometric terms to follow directions while folding an origami sculpture. Students then solve math problems which relate to the project with follow-up discussions about the project relating to geometric terms such as symmetry, faces, edges, square, triangle, plane, etc.

- Exploring place value with M&Ms
- This lesson will use M&Ms to explore place value. The students are given 8-10 M&Ms and assigned a value for each color from one to hundred thousand. The students will then write their number in standard, written and expanded form. The students will also identify the place and value of various digits.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 4 Mathematics)
- By Amy Bullins.
- Does one cup of everything weigh the same?
- The student will predict whether one cup of everything weighs the same. Next, the student will estimate the mass of several cups of materials. Then, using a primer balance the student will find the actual mass of each cup of materials in grams. The students will order the cups from lightest to heaviest by mass.
