Learners investigate the relationship between the Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales. Given two data points, they construct a linear function to describe the relationship, find the inverse of the function, and make observations...

Things are about to heat up in your classroom! A kinesthetic lesson asks learners to play the part of the gases in the earth's atmosphere and interact with the sun's radiation. The focus is to learn the impact of the increasing...

Your young weather buffs use compositions and inverses of functions to convert between Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin degrees. Then they analyze possible compositions and whether they exist in the real-life context.

Students read a thermometer in Celsius and Fahrenheit. In this thermometer reading lesson, students take the temperature in different situations and discuss the results with a partner.

Use this resource to present your number crunchers with how to write a constraint equation and to determine viable solutions. The price of an object limits the amount that can be purchased. The speed at which you walk limits the number...

Learn about the two main temperature scales, Celsius and Fahrenheit, and how to convert temperature from one to another. View two conversion examples and a chart of typical temperatures, and use the conversion tool.

A number line comparing temperatures in Celsius and Fahrenheit.

In this activity, students will collect data for a range of temperatures in units of Fahrenheit and Celsius, and develop a conversion formula for changing from one unit to the other.

Provides information about the distinction between heat and temperature, and allows you to check your understanding through exercises. The Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Celsius temperatures are compared and discussed.

In this activity, students represent and analyze climate data. They use linear regressions to understand the relationship between temperatures measured in the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales and examine conversion factors.

In this activity, students learn how to convert measures of temperature between the three different scales - Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. The history and uses of each are very briefly explained as well.

In this activity, students collect Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature data for various cities across the world. They develop and test a mathematical relationship between the two temperature scales.

In this activity, students find a conversion equation that will calculate the corresponding Celsius temperature for any given Fahrenheit temperature. Students learn to graph scatter plots, analyze and graph linear equations, compute and...

This activity explains what a fever is and how the immune system uses it to try and protect the body against germs. The students then explore temperature further by creating a model of a thermometer and completing a temperature...

This site from Suzy's World and Suzy Cato explores what a thermometer is and how it works. Content includes some fun facts, an experiment, and a classroom activity.

In this activity, students collect both Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature data for several water samples of varying temperatures. They use the data to find a conversion equation that will calculate the Fahrenheit temperature for any...
