Students investigate different geometric patterns. In this geometry lesson plan, students create different shapes using toothpicks. They create different patterns and designs and complete a charts using different measurements.

Students solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson,students identify the right angle, hypotenuse and legs of a right triangle. They find the missing sides using the ratios of the Pythagorean theorem.

Students solve problems with percents, decimals and fractions. In this algebra lesson, students convert between fractions, percents and decimals. They estimate their answers and calculate their answer.

Students identify the nth rule for each sequence. In this algebra lesson, students finish the pattern or sequence and find the missing term. They relate patterns and sequences to the real world.

Students explore friction. For this physics lesson plan, students will cover metal blocks with film to determine the changes caused by static and kinetic friction.

Students explore diameter, radius, and circumference. They define radius, diameter, and circumference on an online dictionary, identify objects in the room with a radius and a diameter, and calculate the radius and diameter of various...

Students compare and contrast objects and are introduced to a Venn Diagram. In this alike and different lesson, students make observations regarding properties of objects. Students classify object and build ideas about variables....

Students explore the concept of big and small. They collect objects from the classroom, sort them by size, and create a graph using Duplo stacking blocks.

Students make observations about mealworms using hand lenses, rulers, and cotton swabs. Students complete their own mealworm observation chart, then they share their observations with the class. This is one station out of five in an...

Students graph the height of others in centimeters and inches, find the slope of line in order to calculate the conversion factor between centimeters and inches.

Middle schoolers create and conduct various experiments to determine the origin of a family artifact, and then determine whether their results were successful. Students summarize their results and evaluate whether their hypotheses were...

Students demonstrate their ability to properly make observations using a compound microscope. They prepare an onion skin slide and focus on it in both low and high power. Then they measure the diameter of one of the cells.

Students discover that mining for nonrenewable natural resources has a dramatic effect on our environment. They gain an understanding of the processes involved in harvesting a natural resource and the impact it has on the earth.

Second graders use knowledge of measurements and ratios to mix various combinations of liquid starch and glue. They chart their ratios, make observations, and write a summary of the activity. They mix their own batch of Crazy Putty to...

Students review the standards for Algebra I. Using the text, they discover two problems that match each standard and solve them showing all steps on paper. They create a PowerPoint slide for each problem and go through the correct...

Students spend one month keeping track of the mileage and gasoline amounts they or their family has used. Information is entered into a spreadsheet to help calculate the average gas prices over time.

Students demonstrate geometric relationships of finding area of rectangles and squares. They apply determine the quantity of paint needed to cover the area by using the concept of quantity.

Young scholars apply the the scientific method to an investigation.They develop and perform a scientific procedure for determining lung capacity. In addition, they write a report to display information and share their procedures with...

In this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, students conduct an experiment with toy cars in order to calculate and compare average, instantaneous, and constant speed.  The two page worksheet contains three questions.  Answers are...

Third graders fly miniature airplanes to discover characteristics related to velocity and average speed. After measuring the time and distance of their flights, 3rd graders calculate the average velocity of their planes.

Eighth graders measure irregular and regular shaped solids.  In this investigative lesson students calculator volume, mass and density of wood and blocks.

Fourth graders calculate the angles and construct a pie graph of the percentages of the elements in the continental and oceanic crusts. Then they analyze the results. They can be assigned the task of researching the percentages.

Seventh graders groups measure the diameter and circumference of each of the circular objects in the room. They record their results on their student worksheets and access a computer spreadsheet program to compile their results.
