Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

Students calculate the area and perimeter of a basketball court. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similarity and congruence of geometric objects. They test conjectures and use it to solve problems.

Students complete a lab activity with polymers to allow them to better understand how to make "observations".  In this science lesson students make measurements and collect data.

Young scholars explore the concept of chemical formulas.  In this chemical formula lesson, students watch a video about balancing chemical equations.  Young scholars conduct an experiment using silver nitrate and sodium...

Students investigate faults. In this science instructional activity, students explore the many stresses and strains in the earth's layers and research the types of faults in their state.

Students listen as the teacher introduces Newton's early discovery of the diffraction of light. They use multiple sources of light (fluorescent, incandescent, sunlight, etc) to bend the light. They first use a prism then a diffraction...

Pupils identify ways that light can travel and why. In groups, they develop an experiment to show that light can travel because it is a form of energy. They use this information and apply it to other forms of energy to end the lesson.

Students identify the different periodic trends. For this chemistry lesson, students discuss how elements are arranged in the periodic table. They apply what they have learned in a Jeopardy team game.

Students explain how elements are arranged in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson plan, students group the eggs according to a certain pattern. They compare this to elements in the periodic table.   

Sixth graders examine the processes and transformations that occur in carbon pools. They play a game to identify paths taken by carbon through the environment.

Learners investigate how rocket thrust is generated with propellant. They listen to a teacher-led lecture, discuss Newton's third law of motion, answer discussion questions, and view photos of rockets and rocket designs.

Students explore the concept of density by trying to make a penny and other materials float.

Students use comparisons, graphing, patterning, and sorting, and develop language skills as they explore the five senses.

Learners measure water and make predictions about efficiency.

First graders experiment with fat content by analyzing snack foods. They learn what makes up a nutritious snack.

Fourth graders produce 4 small works of art that be pasted or glued onto the back of the colored construction paper. They choose crayons, watercolor markers, watercolor paints, or colored pencils to produce their designs.

Students develop and practice observational skills through lab activity.

Fourth graders, in groups, experiment with density and the displacement of water by creating and designing their own boats and seeing which boat holds the most centimeter cubes without sinking..

Pupils construct models of various tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes that are possible, classify n-cubes into different groupings, and draw these figures on isometric dot paper giving true perspective to what they visualize.

Students examine the health risks of radon in the home. They calculate the odds for each risk and use different forms of measurement. They work together to complete the activity and worksheet.

Students investigate the concepts that are related to finance and how it is used in the world. They take part in activities that are focused around the use of a spreadsheet while using a T-chart to simulate a ledger of credits and debits.

Students investigate the concepts of energy conversion and conservation. They research the history of energy conversions into electrical energy. They design experiments in order to replicate a conversion of energy into electricity.

Students define, give similarites and differences between solids, liquids, and gases. They compare and contrast a solid, liquid and gas in terms of shape, volume, compressibility, diffusion and density. Pupils classigy common...

Students examine how multiples of the denominator indicate that a fraction can be renamed as a whole number, and convert improper fractions to mixed numbers. Independently they read examples, and complete a variety of problems on a...
