Each grade level specific book supports thinking, reasoning, and working mathematically in developmentally appropriate lessons. This sequence extends across the series so that students have the opportunity to develop their understanding of algebra over a number of years.
The Algebra for All activity books are a set of five books filled with teacher instructions and sequenced algebra activities for Grades 1–6. This set is the perfect companion resource for any mathematics curriculum or program being used, and is excellent for gifted and talented extension activities. Each book features 4 chapters that focus separately […]
This book focuses on the mathematical background and research base for recognizing patterns and algebra. The goal is to help young learners develop an understanding of the following five components:
- Describing and Sorting
- Repeating Patterns
- Growing Patterns
- Change and Function
- Equivalence
Computers and computer science are an ever-increasing part of our world. Computational thinking is foundational to these fields; it also supports mathematical process and practice standards. Use the activities below in your classroom to reinforce computational thinking through patterns.

Employing Computational Thinking when teaching multiplication and division of fractions. There are a few statements from elementary school mathematics that seem to be universally imprinted in the minds of adults. Two of these relate to multiplying and dividing fractions. For multiplication, adults usually recall the rule, “Multiply the top numbers and multiply the bottom numbers.” […]
