In this stars rise in the east worksheet, students use geometry to show how the Earth rotates from west to east and why celestial bodies appear to rise in the east and set in the west. Students draw a figure and label given points in...

Flip a coin: heads, use the resource; tails, use the resource. The fourth of six installments of the Statistics & Probability unit looks at coin tosses and probability. The class conducts an experiment and sees that the outcomes of...

As they investigate scaling figures and calculate the resulting areas, groups determine the area of similar figures. They continue to investigate the results when the vertical and horizontal scales are not equal. 

In this fraction lesson, students manipulate paper by folding it to create different shapes and sizes, they explore the concept of fractions, and discuss their observations as a class. This is a great lesson for getting students...

Fifth graders examine the process of multiplication and the relationship between addition and multiplication. They observe the teacher model a variety of problems on the board, and identify properties of multiplication. Students...

For this atmospheric carbon dioxide worksheet, high schoolers observe a map showing the concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide taken by the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder instrument. Students solve 4 problems using the map. They...

Fourth graders examine the purpose of variables and identify the missing variable in open sentences. They observe the teacher solve a variety of problems, complete a worksheet as a class, and independently complete another worksheet. ...

Students investigate Newton's Third Law of Motion. In this Newton's Third Law of Motion lesson, students explore the law in the real world. Students break down the definition for understanding and do an experiment using a balloon.

In this math worksheet, students define the sets of vectors. They also observe the concept of area for the parallelogram and how vectors are used.

Students construct a weather vane using their knowledge of some geometric shapes. In this weather lesson plan, students work in pairs to create a weather vane in order to measure wind direction. Students follow precise...

Learners experiment with distance, speed, and motion by graphing the motion of a bowling ball. In this distance versus time graphing lesson, students observe the speed and distance of a rolling ball and graph their findings. They then...

Students construct parallel lines using a protractor and a straightedge. In this geometry lesson, students identify the properties of parallel lines. They use Cabri to graph and observe the lines.

Explore rational functions with this packet. A lot of information is provided, including several examples. Learners graph rational functions and find vertical, horizontal, and oblique asymptotes. This seven-page worksheet contains...

Students identify the different types of bridges. Using the internet, they research information on how they are built by completing a scavenger hunt. Locating a specific area, they determine which type of bridge would be appropriate and...

Use dance and song to help your charges in adding whole numbers to 10. In this adding to 10 lesson, learners become the manipulatives as you add them.

High schoolers differentiate lines and angles using betweenness in this geometry lesson. They differentiate angles and lines using Cabri Jr. and analyze the data and make conjecture.

For this scientific statements worksheet, students are given 35 statements and they are to identify if each statement is a fact, law, hypothesis, theory or belief.

Students familiarize themselves with the three most common geometric shapes: circles, triangles and parallelograms. They sketch, sort, and name the shapes.

Learners create visuals of the effect of a spring scale. In this algebra lesson, students use the navigator to graph the effects created by a spring scale. They draw conclusion from the graph.

Students investigate Newton's Third Law of Motion as it exits in real world applications. They watch as the teacher makes a simple balloon powered car before explaining how the motion of the car demonstrates Newton's Third Law of Motion....

Students plant seeds and watch them sprout. Once growing plants are placed in different conditions and students record data about their growth. They graph the data.

Young scholars explore the concept of origami. In this origami activity, students construct picture frames out of paper. Young scholars find the midpoint of the paper and determine the fractional area of the paper as it is folded.

Pupils study fractions. In this art lesson, students fold paper, use origami, making new shapes and discuss the area of the shapes created.

Third graders begin learning about multiplication using arrays. In this multiplication with arrays instructional activity, 3rd graders interact with tiles on the overhead as they follow the teacher in making arrays. They write...
