In this lesson, students will develop their fluency with addition and subtraction through a real world application of collection data.

In this lesson, students will apply the use of angles to a real-world problem—finding the angle of the sun to determine the placement of solar panels. This lesson can be used to teach about angles, or to reinforce and apply understanding of angles.

Square foot gardening is one way that ensures a vegetable garden bed can thrive. It is used to ensure not too many plants of a specific variety are planted in a single area. Using the square foot model keeps plants properly spaced, providing a perfect real-world context to teach area, apply multiplication strategies and have students work collaboratively. Most garden beds are 8 x 4 resulting in 32 square feet to work with. It is possible however to have beds of different sizes. While 32 square feet to work with is what is used in this lesson, the methods and chart can be used for any rectangular planting area.

The students will use their knowledge of repeated addition to determine the total number of objects in equal groups.

The students will identify and compare attributes of two-dimensional and three- dimensional shapes in the world around them.

Students will use their knowledge of appropriate tools and units and determine when to measure liquid volume or weight.

The students will use their knowledge of decimals and place value to compare decimals using greater than less than and equal to symbols.

Students will understand that we use numbers to represent a quantity and to compare them.

Students will use the decomposition of a compost pile to visualize fractions as parts of a whole.

Students will practice counting up to 20 in a very fun and exciting way. The lesson includes a hands-on component where students will be asked to collect leaves and use them as manipulatives. This lesson is great for kindergarten through first grade.

In this lesson, students will use a square foot gardening planting chart (provided) to calculate the number of crops they can plant within a specific area.

Students will use their knowledge of summarizing data sets with multiple categories using a dot plot.

Students estimate the numbers of objects in situations in which counting is not feasible or necessary.

Students will use their knowledge or availability and scarcity to determine income and earnings.
