Students investigate the illness borne in concentration camps. In this Holocaust lesson, students participate in a simulation that requires them to consider how ailments became epidemics in concentration camps.

In this physics activity, students construct and test an amplifier circuit given a schematic diagram. They answer 2 short answer questions about the circuit they constructed.

In this plane or plain worksheet, students choose the correct word to complete each sentence. Students choose plane or plain for 8 sentences.

In this online math worksheet, high schoolers determine the translation of a point by utilizing the x and y coordinates. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into...

Students perform reflections and translations of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform reflection in two parallel lines. They use Cabri to observe the transformation and rotations of each shape.

Students draw a diagram that shows the law of reflection. In this physics instructional activity, students investigate the relationship between the angle of incidence and angle of reflection. They explain how light travels as it reflects...

Students design and build their own solar cooker. For this math lesson, students determine the relationship between the angles of the sun, reflection and cooking time of the solar cooker. They test their project, collect data and...

Students identify the different ways things are pollinated and how to manage pollen.  In this pollination lesson students complete an experiment on how moths pollinate flowers.

Students examine the process for testing GM foods. They research benefits and hazards of a selection of GM foods. They also create images of new labels and marketing for GM foods.

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...

Twelfth graders examine illustrations and animations on a Physlets CD in which they must describe motion, analyze graphs, and calculate initial velocity. The Physlet assists in providing active class participation in discussion.

In this algebra worksheet, students practice using number sets and principles of algebra to solve each complex problem using number sense.

Students examine how when applying the laws of motion to an object in an accelerating frame, using coordinates defined in such frame, one must always add an "inertial force", representing forces caused by the frame's acceleration.

Young scholars examine the mathematical relationship in scoring a basket. They observe the arc of the ball as it travels to the basket from different points on the floor.

Learners determine whether a hit baseball is a home run or not by utilizing parametric equations to describe the path of the ball. They assess the importance of angles and velocity needed to hit a home run. In addition, in their own...

Young scholars are introduced to the concepts of impulse and momentum and problem solving strategies for these types of problems. In groups, they discover the law of conservation of momentum and share their answers with the class.

Students continue to practice with QuarkXPress, a desktop publishing program. Individually, they create their own certificates along with an original border, text and check boxes. To end the lesson, they complete a single sheet flyer to...

Students read an explanation from a NASA Web-based textbook and then demonstrate an understanding of the text by applying it to calculating drag of both full-sized and model gliders.

Students examine how clouds affect incoming solar radiation. They compare and contrast satellite images and incoming solar radiation measurements as methods to provide information about clouds.

Pupils see if they can get their perceptions of movement expressed in images.

Students use satellite imaging and Mesonet solar radiation maps to answer questions given to them by the teacher and look for differences and similiarities in the data.

Students explore friction and use objects such as coins and marbles to study the concept.
