Pythagorean Theorem
Learners solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. For this geometry lesson, students identify the sides and angles of a right triangle. They find the different trigonometric ratios and solve using sine, cosine and tangent.
Curated OER
Eratosthenes
Students examine what Eratosthenes is and the history behind him. In this earth lesson students complete a hands on activity to repeat Eratosthenes' experiment.
Curated OER
Food Intake and Physical Activity
Fourth graders graph their estimations of caloric intake and caloric expenditures.
Curated OER
Fortune Teller Fish
Students demonstrate how to create and test a hypothesis. They design an experiment and set up a variable, experimental group and control group.
Curated OER
Salinity in Mill Creek
Fifth graders use water samples collected at three different locations of Utah's Mill Creek to test salinity of water, hypothesize about salinity levels at each location, record results, and discuss their findings with classmates. ...
Curated OER
Can You Bear It? Pulleys, Gears, Forces, Structures and Mechanisms
Students review the types of simple machines. As a class, they focus on the positives and negatives of pulleys and gears and identify what pulleys and gears change of an object. They work together to design their own object to support a...
Curated OER
Observations and Inferences
Learners observe how to distinguish observations form inferences. For this examining inferences lesson students list observations relating to the activity and discuss the importance of them.
Curated OER
Water
Young scholars complete activities to examine the properties of water. In this water science lesson, students read a book about water's forms and study a map or globe of the Earth to investigate water. Young scholars discuss living...
Curated OER
Using Concept Maps to Design 3D Spheres
Young scholars create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.
Curated OER
Making Parallel Lines
Students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. In this geometry lesson plan, students make conjectures and apply it to solve real life situations. They collect data and make predictions based on the data.
Curated OER
Geometry of Radio Meteor Reflections
Ninth graders investigate and describe ways that human understanding of Earth and space has depended on technological development. They describe and interpret the science of optical and radio telescopes, space probes and remote sensing...
Curated OER
Understanding the Geologic Timescale
Students identify and analyze how the geologic time scale was developed by investigating 11 periods of time and the vast expanse of time of the Earth's existence. They study their period, determine the important factors indicative to...
Curated OER
Polygon Perimeters
Students define the terms polygon and perimeter to begin the lesson. Using a calculator, they practice determining the perimeter of various symbols in a painting. They discuss how geometry and art are related to one another.
Curated OER
Movement
Students conduct an experiment. In this movement lesson, students see how far a marble will roll after coming down a ramp. The students change the height of the ramp to make it roll faster and record their results.
Curated OER
Ara of Circles
Students identify the differentiate the different properties of circles and parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the area of each solid and identify the formula. They relate Pi to the circumference of a circle.
Curated OER
Crop Circles
Students calculate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students solve word problems with circles and create formulas to calculate the area. They find the rate and complex area of a circle.
Curated OER
Ratio Relationships
Students solve for the different ratio and proportion of a problem. In this geometry lesson, students show their knowledge of how to solve proportional relationships. They convert between percent, decimals and fractions.
