Students explore phonetics by participating in a class game. For this alphabet sounds lesson, students collaborate in a ABC's activity where they identify a random letter, the sound it makes, and place it in it's correct spot on a mat....

Students explore English by reading an alphabet book in class. In this tier two vocabulary instructional activity, students read the book Alphabears: An ABC Book and discuss the uses of specific vocabulary words. Students define the...

Students are introduced to the terms of apportionment and redistricting. Using a Census map, they identify the states that had the highest and lowest numbers of change during the past ten years. They examine a map of voting districts and...

Young scholars explore the alphabet. In this language arts lesson plan, students develop their fine motor skills as they participate in activities that require them to identify the letters of the alphabet.

Students are introduced to the concept of hydrogen technologies through inquiry-based classroom activities.

Geometry students will be ecstatic about these engaging and enlightening end-of-the-year projects! Types of project ideas include interviewing a geometer, an ABCs of geometry poster, an engineering lab report, and origami work. 

Angle ABC is not the same as angle BCA, but it is the same as angle CBA. Help your classes understand naming conventions of angles and, more importantly, the importance of naming angles correctly. Scholars practice the parts of the angle...

Understanding the importance of SAT scores is as easy as ABC. A set of three statistics lessons teaches scholars about normal distributions, the Empirical Rule, and z-scores. They apply their newfound knowledge to investigate data...

Sixth graders explore the nature of habitats on an ABC hike. In groups, they collect items that make up habitats including plants, feathers, and leaves among other materials. Students then classify and organize the collected materials...

If you plan to utilize the ABC miniseries, "The Path to 9/11" in your classroom, consider incorporating media literacy and research skills. After (or while) learners view the series, they discuss ways information can differ from source...

Students discover the threats to our planet by writing an article.  In this environmental instructional activity, students research important facts for an article they plan to write about an environmental safety topic....

Students explore English by completing an interactive computer activity. In this alphabet lesson plan, students research the Internet to create a picture dictionary which they share with classmates. Students locate digital images of...

Students are introduced to the five food groups. In groups, they place different foods into the correct section of the Food Pyramid. Using different types of technology, they create one page of a class ABC book sharing what they know...

Students examine lava lamps and what causes them to work.  In this density lesson students make a lava lamp and write the scientific explanation of what happens.

Students construct their own rotocopters to study flight.  In this flight lesson plan students work in groups and complete timed trials of their rotocopters.

Students study the differences between an acid and a base.  In this pH lesson students view a demonstration then test chemicals in groups.

Experienced chemistry technicians use then layer chromatography to discover how much of a free compound is left after each rinse cycle. Where this could obviously be used as a practice with chromatography technique, it can also be used...

In this transformations and translations in Geometry worksheet, learners use geometric shapes and grids to translate six transformations in each of two activities.

Even kindergartners can draw triangles in circles, but the assessment task requires a bit more geometric knowledge. Scholars investigate triangles that have a diameter of a circle as one of its sides. They must consider triangles that...

This a fun problem for young geometers to play with while gaining important insight into deductive reasoning. Some will find the answers very quickly, others might take a less direct path, but all will use their knowledge of the sum of...

Students find triangular angles using the angle theorem. In this geometry lesson, students describe labeled triangles, use the pythagorean theorem, and rewrite information about triangles in standard form.

Your learners collaboratively find the lines of symmetry in an equilateral triangle using rigid transformations and symmetry. Through congruence proofs they show that they understand congruence in terms of rigid motions as they...

Your learners will make good use of the Socratic method in a collaborative task that begins with an assumed solution and ends with deeper understanding of the idea of determining two triangles congruent.

  Explore the connection between a finite graph, a directed graph, and a matrix. Graph lines and identify the relationship of matrices in real-world scenarios. Then use this information to work with a partner to plan and design a...
