Students practice fielding and hitting skills. Using different size balls, students play t-ball. They practice hitting the ball where partners are not standing Students work together to get the batter out.

Math whizzes examine the relationship between area and volume and the relationship between a 3-D shape and its surface area. Following discussion and practice, pupils participate in a project in which they design packaging for a new...

In this volume worksheet, students recognize three-dimensional figures, identify the proper volume formula, and then solve the equation by inserting information from a diagram into the formula. Students solve six equations.

Six 3-D shapes are featured in this figure-recognition book template. As they create a "My 3-D Shapes Book," young scholars place shapes on the appropriate pages, which already have text indicating the shape and its color. Although it is...

In this prisms worksheet, students answer 10 multiple choice problems about prisms.  Students determine the number of faces a prism has, characteristics of figures, etc.

In this tracing an ice-cream cone activity, students practice using fine motor skills to trace curved and straight lines. Students trace one picture.

For this higher level thinking worksheet, students list five different uses for a coin, candy, pine cone, tennis shoe, precious jewels, and pair of socks. Students write 30 answers.

Mathematicians investigate maximizing volume by learning to explore the problem in which they seek to maximize the volume of a cone.  Students solve the problem symbolically, graphically, and through the use of integration or...

Bring a set of pre-lab, lab, and post-lab lesson plans on volcanoes to your earth science unit. Sixth graders explore the three types of volcanoes found on Earth, plot the specific locations of these volcanoes on a map, and...
