Students calculate the area of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of parallelograms and use to to solve problems. They create polygons using Cabri software.

In this weather and climate quiz learning exercise, students complete a set of 10 multiple choice questions covering a variety of concepts related to climate and weather.

High schoolers find the surface area of cones. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the dimensions of each three-dimensional shape and use the correct formula to solve the problem. They relate concepts of cones to the real...

Learners identify the surface area of pyramids and other polygons. In this geometry lesson, students find the different measurements for the different parts of a polygon. They use the surface area formula to solve for the surface area,

Fifth graders study traits of different bird beaks. In this bird lesson, 5th graders explore the function and usefulness of different inherited traits of birds.

Fifth graders explore biology by completing an Internet activity in class. In this adaptation lesson, 5th graders identify several organisms and mammals that fight for their existence through slow changes to their anatomy over the course...

Fifth graders explore agriculture by viewing compost related presentations. In this worm and soil instructional activity, 5th graders identify the relationship between good soil and the worms who inhabit it by reading assigned text in...

In this spelling activity, students practice their spelling words that include sight words, Greek root anti, and vocabulary. Students practice spelling 21 words.

Students identify the different types of meteorite using an interactive website. For this earth science lesson, students simulate how meteors crash on a surface. They relate meteor size to crater size.

Pupils explain how relatively thin the atmosphere is, compared to the size of the planet, and determine the relative extent of the four major atmospheric layers.

Students develop a travelogue to describe the distinct ecological regions of Mount Kilimanjaro. They describe the health issues that may affect climbers, and any necessary equipment or safety precautions that the team may need at each...

In this atmosphere worksheet, students list the gases in the atmosphere and their percent composition. They also fill in a pie chart with the gases and their percentages and answer questions about the atmosphere.

In this bellwork worksheet, students answer a variety of questions about the climate, climographs, biomes and factors that control climate.

In this calculus worksheet, students solve prolbem in which they estimate double integrals by using Riemann sums. The three page worksheet contains four questions. Answers are not included.

In this weather worksheet, students reviews terms associated with measuring different weather phenomena plus draw examples of different types of fronts on a weather map. This worksheet has 5 true or false, 15 matching, 21 multiple...

Learners study and illustrate clouds. In this cloud study lesson, students study clouds and then illustrate what they see. Learners use their imaginations to interpret images from the cloud picture they drew.

Students measure the height of items using an astrolabe.  In this latitude lesson students construct a sextant and determine height and latitude with it. 

Students use the World Wide Web to access additional information needed to complete the activities on the forces on an airplane, the function of the stabilizer, and the calculation of Mach speed, temperature, pressure, and thrust.

Students investigate the area under a curve and the rate of change.

Students experiment with soda cans and water to discover why air pressure is greater closer to Earth's surface.

Students lexplore environmental trends in the troposphere- temperature, dew point, pressure and wind speed- by checking their hypotheses against data collected by weather balloons.

Students examine troposphere graphs and mcompare their hypotheses with data collected by weather balloons launched from the NOAA ship, Ronald H. Brown. they write summaries about the physical properties of the troposphere.

Students study and chart the levels of the atmosphere. They determine volume and location of the whole in the ozone layer by problem solving and drawing Antarctica.

Students discuss the concept of "aspect ratio" of the Helios Prototype. They find real life objects that are taller or shorter than them by a certain amount. They practice with ratio and measurement.
