Wetlands may not sound particularly ornate, but they are as important as any habitat! With a hands-on activity, young scientists build a wetland model and observe its many functions in action. They discover the importance of wetlands to...

Students explore plant and animal cells. Using household items, students create a three-dimensional model of a plant or animal cell. Students identify and label each cell part.

Students investigate the life cycle and body parts of Hawaii's sea turtles. In this sea turtle lesson, students watch a video about the turtle life cycle and make a model of a "Honu," sea turtle. They complete an associated worksheet.

Students factor trinomials. In this algebra lesson, students identify the different integers making up the trinomial and use the special pattern to factor them. They continue to model the equations and how to factor correctly.

Learners are able to identify the components of the cardio-vascular system. They are able to describe the way the heart works to pump the blood. Students are able to explain the function of the cardio-vascular system. They are able to...

Students explore frogs.  In this cross curriculum literacy and frogs lesson, students predict the plot and then listen to the book The Wide-Mouthed Frog by Keith Faulkner. Students define "predator" and identify foods a frog might...

Learners study the physical properties of minerals and illustrate their functions.  In this mineral lesson students construct models of some minerals.

Students explore shapes and forms in architecture. This lesson also introduce students to the concepts of form and function in architecture. They take an architectural tour (on foot or with visuals) to identify forms and shapes.

Young scholars perform activities to explore how their arm works and what muscles are involved. They view animated comparisons of human and robotic arms. Students create a model of the human arm.

Students investigate angles converting them from radians to degrees. In this trigonometry lesson, students work with angles and the six different trig ratios. They graph the functions representing each trig functions and identify the...

Students explore the concept of finding the area between two curves. For this finding the area between two curves instructional activity, students model the logos of McDonalds, Nike, and Motorola on grid paper. Students find functions to...

Students identify parts of the human brain. In this biology lesson, students watch a video about the human brain. Students use different colors of clay to construct and label the three parts of the brain.

Fourth graders study the names and parts of the excretory system in this hands-on activity. They use common items to make a model of the system.

Students identify features of the human body, explore needs of the human body by explaining the importance of good health in relationship to the body, and study functions and care of the human body and its organs.

Students are introduced to the proper ways to deal with conflict at home. In groups, they define family based on what it means to them and identify factors that lead to a breakdown in communications. They participate in role-playing...

Fifth graders make a model of the ocean floor.  In this ocean characteristics lesson, 5th graders complete a KWL chart about the ocean floor, use the Ocean Depth Data Sheet to create a graph, and create a 3-D model of the ocean floor.

Third graders identify ways that ocean animals grow, survive, reproduce, and adapt. They use computer Internet skills to acces and collect information. They create a PowerPoint presentation. They demonstrate writing skills throughthe...

Leanrers observe models of fractions and use a calculator to represent numbers as decimals, fractions, and percents. They participate in calculator activities to view different representations of the same number.

High schoolers examine the concept of protein structure. They read an article, construct a three-dimensional model of an insulin protein, take a quiz, conduct Internet research, and answer discussion questions.

Pupils relate real life situation to the equations, graphs and inequalities. They model real life scenarios using matrices and draw conclusions from their data. This lesson plan is aligned with FCAT.

In this trig worksheet, students draw graphs of trig functions and identify the cycle of the function. They discuss period and phase shift. There are 9 questions with an answer key.
