Fourth graders convert measurements in the metric system. In this metric lesson plan, 4th graders convert units up to kilometers and down to millimeters. They answer word problems with conversions. 

Students reflect upon the concepts of seasons. The concepts are taught using a variety of different teaching approaches. A activities lead to a reflection that will help students to make a cognitive transfer of information form...

Students are able to download, install, and use Image J image analysis software to quantify change over time in satellite images. They access and download satellite images for specific locations and times. Students set a scale (spatial...

Students get a cardiovascular workout while applying geographical concepts and processes by keeping track of mileage traveled from location to location until reaching the state capital.

Students analyze velocity and how it is determined. They experiment with velocity in order to measure and calculate the magnitude of speed. They use examples in their novel "Skateboard Renegade" to relate velocity to real life situations.

Pupils examine how geologists determine rates of sea floor spreading between two tectonic plates. They apply mathematical concepts such as the calculation and use of velocities and conversion from one set of units to another.

Learners are introduced to the events of the Dust Bowl. Using a map, they locate and label all of the states surrounding and including Oklahoma. After also labeling the counties in Oklahoma, they use the internet to research the...

In this measurement worksheet, students complete each of the statements with the correct word related to the metric system. Then they match each letter marked with a number to those at the bottom of the sheet to complete the answer to...

In this three-dimensional learning exercise, students identify the center and radius of given spheres. They simplify an equation for all points in three-dimensional space which are equidistant from a given point. This two-page learning...

In this continuous function worksheet, students determine the average velocity of objects over given intervals of time. They compute the derivative of functions and determine the slope of a line. This four-page worksheet contains...

In this rate worksheet, students read story problems, write equations, and determine the rate of given objects. They use proportions or equations to determine cost and value. This one-page worksheet contains ten multi-step problems.

In this rate and time worksheet, students read story problems, write equations and solve time and rate problems. They find the find the difference between squares. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

For this circumference of a circle worksheet, 10th graders solve 10 different problems that include various illustrations of circles. First, they multiply pi by the given diameter of the circle. Then, students determine the radius by...

In this word problem activity, students solve twelve word problems discussing average speed or rate.  The solutions are provided.

In this transit problem worksheet, students read clues about bus stops and their routes.  They determine the time between stops and the shortest path possible.  This one-page worksheet contains 1 multi-step problem.  The...

Circles aren't functions, so how is it possible to write the equation for a circle? Pupils first develop the equation of a circle through application of the Pythagorean Theorem. The activity then provides an exercise set for learners to...

Class members investigate rectangles on the coordinate plane. They determine the length of line segments in the coordinate plane with the same x-coordinate or same y-coordinate and then solve geometric problems involving perimeter...

Expand on learners' understanding of quadratic-linear systems. Building on the graphic understanding developed in the previous lesson, pupils learn algebraic methods of solving the systems. 

An informative presentation covers motion, metric system, conversions, graphing of coordinates and lines, speed, velocity, and acceleration problems, as well as mean calculations. This is the first lesson in a 26-part series.

This resource will blow your mind! Young mathematicians estimate the rate of volcanic lava flow by watching a video. They apply the rate formula to determine how long it would take the lava to reach a city. Let's hope everyone gets out...

Mixtures, weighted percentages, and varying speeds make problem solving difficult. The resource give learners a strategy for tackling these types of problems effectively. 

Put together the pieces and model a parabola. Learners work through several examples to develop an understanding of a parabola graphically and algebraically.
