Curated OER
Shapes
Students practice identifying spheres, triangles, and rectangles and the difference between plane shapes and space shapes. They identify shapes in the classroom and complete activity sheets.
Curated OER
Flight Paths of Orbiting Satellites
Students examine the path a satellite follows as it orbits the earth. In this space science activity, students use a globe as they illustrate a satellite in its orbital plane, then plot points on the satellite's path on the globe to see...

Creating a Reflection
Investigate geometric reflections in this geometry lesson. Create geometric reflections that show the reflection across the x and y axis of a coordinate graph. Learners watch a teacher demonstration before proceeding on their own. They...
Curated OER
Angling Your Way Through a Picture
Students look at the geometry in an artwork. In this art history/geometry lesson, students research the artist Charles Sheeler and look at his painting Stacks in Celebration. They find the different types of lines, angles, and...
Curated OER
Vanished!
Students view a video clip about the Stardust crash site. They discover how hypothesis change based on new evidence. They research unsolved plane crashes as well.
Curated OER
Space Geometry
Students explore points, lines and planes as it relates to geometry. In this geometry lesson, students analyze space and explain wy it is 3-D and not flat or 2-D. They solve problems involving volume and 3-D shapes.
Curated OER
Rockets!!
Students launch a rocket. In this laws of motion lesson plan, students discuss the forces of flight, how a plane flies and how a rocket gets off the ground. Students watch a video about rocket launches, discuss Newton's Third...
Curated OER
Angles in Standard Positions
Students identify positive and negative angles using the Unit Circle. In this pre-calculus lesson, students identify the different angles on a unit circle using the coordinate plane and the four different quadrants as a guide. They...
Curated OER
Crash of Flight 111
Students identify the locations on a map of the airplane crashes discussed in this lesson. After watching a video, they discuss the importance of an investigation after a plane crash. They use the same information as the investigators...
Curated OER
Where is it?
Students use a coordinate grid. They investigate and discuss what caused certain objects to be in specific places. They choose a room in their home to map and place objects in specific locations.
Curated OER
Coordinates
In this geometry learning exercise, 10th graders are given points on a coordinate plane, and they must figure out what the x and y values are. There are 6 graphing question.

Engineering Air Traffic
Students work as air traffic controllers to read the radar and land 3 planes safely. In this engineering lesson, students use what they have learned about the principles and engineering and radar to land 3 planes then evaluate the...
Curated OER
Transformations: Translations
Students perform transformations and translations using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform transformations on a coordinate plane. They identify the image and pre-image of each figure.
Curated OER
Matrix Transformations
Students perform reflections of polygons. In this algebra lesson, students use matrices to calculate the reflection across the x and y axis. They also calculate rotation representing 90 and 180 degrees around the origin of the coordinate...
Curated OER
The Building Blocks of Geometry
Fifth graders explore geometric building blocks in the real world in order to describe the characteristics and relationships of points, lines, line segments, rays, and planes. This is the first lesson plan in a series of lessons in...
Curated OER
Farming in the 1930's
Students research and conduct experiments with several types of simple machines. They examine levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wheels, axles, wedges and screws and then consider the physics behind "Green Eggs and Ham".
