Teaching Aids

By popular demand, I am including some ideas for teaching aids in the middle grades.

Manipulatives/Hands-On

Use spinners, dice and a deck of playing cards to demonstrate concepts from probability.
Use Unifix cubes to multiply fractions with my Fractions and Chocolate Bars activitiy.
Use a shoebox to show properties of polygons with Geometry and Gumby

Software

The Math Goodies CD has interactive lessons, worksheets and puzzles. You'll also find classroom activities for hands-on learning and real-world connections.
Create math notation and symbols in all of your documents --for print and the web --with MathType by Design Science, Inc.

Hands-on With Books

Fractions with Pattern Blocks is a great hands-on book that integrates fractions with geometry. It is available used and new.
Dot Paper Geometry has fabulous geoboard activities with and without a geoboard for grades 4 through 8. It is also available used and new.
