Foresman-Addison Wesley Math
This math program has been developed to help students make sense of mathematics in meaningful ways. Number sense is a driving force of the program, which includes estimation and mental math. Students who develop strong number sense will become more proficient with computation and more efficient and powerful problem solvers. Manipulatives and models are important to help students make sense of mathematics. Working with numbers is connected to physical representations to enhance their understanding of key concepts and skills. Reasoning and critical thinking are integral to the program and are used to deepen students’ understanding. Problem-solving strategies are practiced at all grade levels.
Investigations in Number, Data and Space
Publisher: Pearson Scott Foresman/TERC
The Investigations curriculum offers topics in number, data analysis, and geometry. The number of units varies by grade level. In each unit, students explore the central topics in depth through a series of investigations, encountering and using many important mathematical ideas. Students actively engage in mathematical thinking to solve larger mathematical problems. Students represent their thinking and use mathematical tools and appropriate technology as a natural part of their work. They work in a variety of groupings: as a whole class, individually, in pairs, and in small groups. The curriculum also includes classroom routines, ten-minute math activities, family math, and games that support mathematical thinking.

One False Move
You are given a table of numbers.
• Click on the numbers in order from lowest to highest (or highest to lowest).
Power Football
FUNBRAIN will give you a math problem.
Enter the answer to the problem and hit the "Go" button.
If your answer is correct, the ball will move in the air towards to goalpost.
If you answer incorrectly, you lose a down (a turn).
If the ball goes through the goalpost, you score. If you answer the next question correctly, you get the ball back and the downs go back to zero. Keep playing!
The game is over when you go four downs without scoring.
