Students discover and discuss relationships and functions between varying dependent variables and how they affect the period of the pendulum. They use graphing calculator to express the data collected in a graph, to analyze the graph,...

Give every type of learner in your physics class an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned throughout the year. From analyzing tables and graphs to evaluating diagrams and solving problems, there is an outstanding variety of...

Students observe a pendulum and graph their observation. In this algebra lesson, students use the TI calcualtor to graph the motion the pendulum makes. They analyze the graph and make predictions.

Students calculate acceleration due to gravity with the measurements of the period of a pendulum or measurements of the time for an object to fall from different heights. They observe and measure the effect of air resistance on the...

Students solve problems by discovering the eigenvalues that satisfy design questions. They explain how relaxing a small angle approximation can change the solution. Students apply the numerical model of pendulumm motion to solve the...

Students recognize dependent and independent variables in an experiment by practicing manipulation of variables; students practice designing experiments that contain the two types of variables.

Lesson 2, which is about bowling footwork, is part of a unit on bowling. There is a link at the bottom of this page that will go to the unit page. The unit plan is pretty comprehensive and the lessons should be taught in order. The unit...

Readers are asked to identify how a key detail reveals the main idea of a paragraph about Galileo.

Students participate in long rope jumping. In this physical education lesson plan, students use four cones and a long rope to complete several activities. One students has the role of a "turner" and their partner is the "jumper." Each...

Students solve systems of equations with radical expressions. After reading real life situation, they translate the problem into algebraic expressions. As a class, students solve quadratic equations and inequalities by graphing and...

Learners are introduced to the concept of Energy Conservation with the example of: Tony Hawk seems to defy the conservation of energy as he keeps reaching new heights on each pass on the halk-pipe. Actually, Tony is supplying the extra...

Students review fundamental concepts of time such as A.M. and P.M. and learn about elapsed time. For this Unit of Time lesson, students review the basics of how to tell time and then are given examples to figure out how much time has...

Students explore the conventions of portraiture and the technique of photo-montage. For this art analysis lesson, students define portraiture and analyze the pictured pieces of art. Students make a photo-montage portrait or caricature as...

Young scholars enhance their knowledge of physical fitness skills as well as related terminology. They explore many challenges using beanbags. Locomotive skills as well as manipulatives and non-manipulatives are involved.

Students explore circular functions. They identify the amplitude, period, phase shift and vertical shift of circular functions. Students analyze phenomena described by sine waves and they find mathematical models for transforming images...

Students examine the letter 't'. Through instruction and modeling they explore the sound the letter makes, how to make the sound with their mouths, how the letter is written, etc. They say tongue twisters with the /t/ sound in them. They...

Students identify the letter and phoneme /t/ in written and spoken language. Students practice the production of the /t/ sound through tongue twisters. They identify the initial placement of the letter and sound using a picture worksheet.
