Students make a simple sundial to examine the changes in shadows over time. In this sundial and shadow lesson, students make a simple sundial out of a manila folder and pencil. They observe how shadows change over time, and relate it to...

Learners are shown proper stance, nocking, targeting, and release techniques of archery. They follow basic safety procedures involved in handling and using archery equipment. Students practice shooting aluminum or fiberglass shaft arrows.

In this geometry worksheet, students match terms with definitions, and complete short answer questions about polygons and congruency.

In this math worksheet, students complete the practice exam that asks for the solution to the parametric equation. Also they name the perpendicular line in relation to it.

For this rounding worksheet, students solve 40 problems in which whole numbers are rounded to the nearest 10. 100 or 1000. Students also round to the nearest dollar.

Fifth graders create a reflection of a poygon using a Mira. They discover that a line connecting a vertiex of a polygon and the corresponding vertex of its reflection is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Students create a glide...

In this waves activity, students define 23 vocabulary words associated with the different types of waves and how waves are measured. Students complete 23 matching terms with definitions and draw the superposition of two waves shown.

Fourth graders complete a variety of activities as they study the European exploration of the Midwest, focusing on Indiana. They map the path explorers took, comparing the British with the French. They research why the explorers stopped...

Pupils define properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the relationship between two and three dimensional objects. They use Cabri technology to graph their figures.

Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

Sixth graders discover transformations. In this graphing lesson, 6th graders explore visual examples of plotting transformations as they review translations, rotations, and reflections. Students also practice solving problems that their...

In this calculus worksheet, learners review important rules of derivatives and integrations. They graph their functions using symmetry and coordinate pairs. There are 20 questions.

In this secondary mathematics worksheet, students assess their readiness for the SAT test.  The one page, interactive worksheet contains ten problems.  Solutions are not provided. 

Fifth graders participate in a class activity that helps them learn some geometric terms along with their definitions. They describe relationships between two and three-dimensional shapes and analyze attributes and properties of...

Young scholars explore the concept of polygon properties. In this polygon properties lesson, students draw polygons with different numbers of sides such as pentagons, octagons, hexagons, etc. Young scholars identify different geometric...

Seventh graders investigate the mathematical concept of a sector. They apply the concept to an example problem and then move into a more complex application. They find the area of the side of a cone. This is done as students calculate...

Fifth graders use tan to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. They solve equations of the form tan(8) =a, for a between 180 degrees and 360 degrees. They state the value of tan (8) in special cases.

Young scholars are introduced to the concept of aerial perspective and scale. Students will use satellite technology to view their neighborhoods and sketch the area surrounding their schools. They will take part in a neighborhood walk to...

Having a good working knowledge of math vocabulary is especially important for geometry learners. Here are 119 pages worth of wonderfully constructed definitions, constructions, formulas, properties, theorems, and postulates. This is a...

Geometric figures are perfect to use for proofs. Scholars prove conjectures about whether given points lie on a triangle and about midpoints. They use a provided dialogue among fictional students to frame their responses.

Fourth and fifth graders learn to classify quadrilaterals and use more than one name for each. They follow the directions and classify three quadrilaterals. There are also activities which can be done with a partner.

Where do the coordinates lead? As children brainstorm ways to find the location of different buildings, they learn about coordinate points and how to use them to locate areas on a grid or map. They practice using ordered pairs by playing...

What type of quadrilateral is that? Discover the difference between the types of quadrilaterals. Small groups investigate types of quadrilaterals using geometry software to find their properties. To keep track of the different...

Students review plane figures by playing a game that resembles "Twister." They listen to directions to locate a large example of the figure which is placed on the floor.
