Exploring Centers of a Triangle: Part 2
Learners model and solve a real-world problem by constructing the centroid of a triangle. They explore relationships of the medians of a triangle and investigate how the centroid partitions each of the medians. Students investigate...
Curated OER
How Long? How Wide?
Second graders distinguish between and use nonstandard and standard units of measurement, use appropriate tools and techniques to measure length and width, and record and interpret data using graphs.
Curated OER
Care Homework #7
For this care homework worksheet, learners add, subtract, multiply and divide integers. They multiply and divide fractions. Students complete percent problems and determine the area of polygons. This three-page...
