Young scholars solve problems of dilation and velocity. In this geometry lesson, students apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems and relate it to time and velocity.

Students practice mirroring human moves by performing a dance in class.  In this physical education lesson, students utilize different spaces around them to perform a dance expressing their full motion.  Students cooperate in...

Third graders investigate congruent polygons through dance. In this congruency lesson, 3rd graders do the "brain dance" as a warm up. They review polygon names by singing "The Polygon Chant," before mirroring congruent shapes with a...

Students write about main characters. In this dramatic writing lesson, students brainstorm character ideas. Students create actions and give the character a voice. Students act out the scene in groups and create a final draft.

Students investigate the volume of cones. In this geometry lesson, students define the formula to find the volume of cones. They define the concept of having to dissect a three dimensional figure and find the volume.

Students measure using the metric system. In this geometry lesson, students solve problems using grams, meters and liters. They convert between the US units of measurements and the Metric System.

Students solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson, students identify the Pythagorean Triple and use it to solve real life problems.

Students compare and order numbers to 100. They count numbers forwards and backwards. Given specific numbers, students place the numerals in the correct order. Students use bean bags, cubes, or blocks to compare and order numbers.

Sixth graders analyze the primary force that drives a character's actions in a character analysis instructional activity. In this character analysis instructional activity, 6th graders analyze how characters present their actions and...

Students analyze how repeated body movements and shapes can represent and extend patterns. In this pattern analysis instructional activity, students discuss patterns in dance, math, and everyday living. Students demonstrate a dance using...
