This resource provides information about the advances in musical instruments, and those who have helped their evolution.

Students create a design by connecting points in the coordinate plane. They then program their calculators to display their designs.

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a two dimensional design, and use the calculator to determine the value of the design.

in this activity, students calculate the molar enthalpy of dissolving for three ionic solids, and use this information to design a cold pack. In this experiment they measure the heat changes which occur from various salts dissolving in...

In this activity, students will design, conduct, and report the outcome of an experiment in which they investigate some factor that affects the rate of reaction between baking soda and vinegar. The dynamic nature of the reaction, coupled...

Students plot points then use regression lines to design a vehicle.

This challenge is to build a four-stringed musical instrument that can play a tune on different pitches.

This set contains statistics questions regarding experiments and experimental design. The student becomes familiar with the various elements of experimental design.

This challenge is to design and build a headphone system to hear a musical instrument (real or homemade) better. Can you do it?

Students will design and create a LEGO structure that will house and protect a temperature sensor. They will leave the structure in a safe spot and check the temperature regularly and chart it.

Students will learn to apply the principles and concepts associated with energy and the transfer of energy in an engineering context through the designing and making of a musical instrument. The students must choose from a variety of...

Students learn to use pattern blocks to investigate symmetry by building a design, making its mirror image, and using the calculator to determine the value of both the design made and its reflection.

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a design that has a line of symmetry. They use the calculator to determine the value of half the design. They predict and then find the value of the entire design.

Students can use the x- and y-intercepts to find the equations of lines and create a line design using the slope-intercept form and the limited domain of the segment.

This set contains statistics questions regarding surveys and survey designs. The student differentiates between a systematic sample, a convenience sample, a simple random sample (SRS), and a stratified random sample.

This activity is designed to assess the comprehension of concepts related to motion in two dimensions and projectile motion.

This activity is designed to help students discover several important theorems concerning lengths of segments formed by intersecting chords, secants, and tangents.

Architects and Interior Designers use scale drawings that represent the house or room they are designing. This activity uses Cabri Jr. Geometry software to create a scale drawing with dilations.

In this activity, students will explore the proportional relationships involved in multiple parallel lines being cut by transversals. These relationships are approached through exploration of a sail design problem, where students are to...

In this activity, students will draw and color scaled drawings of traditional quilt block designs. They then find the appropriate fraction, decimal, and percent of the overall design for each color.

This lesson was designed for our Grandparents and Special Friends day. It can be used for any visitation day, or an open house. The lesson is designed to review percent of a whole and the sector of the circle representing the percentage....

Egg drop competition is a popular activity to reinforce the lessons in force and motion. In the activity, the students are asked to design a vehicle to carry the egg safely when dropped from a height of 10 feet (about 3 m) or more....

This is a partner activity. One calculator is used to explore and the other is used to continue the learn check. It was designed to help students understand the concept of windows and what happens with the various window settings. Using...

This activity is designed to help students make decisions about what and how information could be displayed graphically. The data set deals with salaries of professional baseball players. It is designed for students to determine if the...
