Students design a new classroom workplace. In this architecture lesson, students use area formulas to identify the problem with the existing desks in their classroom. Students design their own solution volume formulas to solve the...

Learners solve problems using equations and properties of integers. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems using ratio and proportion and graph their answers on a coordinate plane. They solve word problems using geometry.

Fifth graders review the concept of prime factorization. Then, they use the rules for divisibility and other notions to find the prime factorization of unfamiliar numbers. They solve problems in a whole class setting.

Seventh graders conduct an investigation into the design of bridges and their construction. Students design bridges and draw detailed plans. For assessment they construct a model of a bridge that is made entirely of toothpicks. Students...

Second graders explore triangles and quadrilaterals. They rotate to various centers in the room to identify and examine triangles and quadrilaterals. After presenting a picture to the class, 2nd graders locate right angles, triangles...

Students review the concept of median, explore how to calculate quartiles for any size data set and experience how to build a box plot.

Seventh graders use the World Wide Web for research, identify fractions found in everyday life by finding a recipe that uses fractions.

Students are introduced to the concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They practice translating, reflecting, and rotating two-dimensional objects on the coordinate plane. students use computers to learn about the three concepts.

Students define matter, the chemical properties of matter, and the physical properties of matter. They name physical and chemical properties of matter (by classifying using a Tree Map). Students determine the mass, volume, and density of...

Students use the CBL and voltage probe to observe electricity. In this algebra lesson, students use the TI calculator with the CBL to explore Ohm's Law. They discuss exponential equations and how it relates to Ohm's Law.

Fourth graders go shopping for a real life experience involving percent. They explore the concepts of sales tax and discount prices.

Students examine buoyancy and fluid pressure. They conduct a series of fun experiments to discover the effects of pressure and explore how pressure differences can be used to float, lift, transport, or hold a material in place.

Students use compasses and grids to map the locations of artifacts found in a simulated dig site. In groups, they role-play as future archeologists excavating a school site. Groups begin at their assigned datum and site the artifacts...

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students explore the concept of tessellations and lines, planes, angles, and polygons. Students experiment with the area and perimeter of polygons. Students analyze...

Your learners will examine probability through experiments and dice games. Using a computer, your class will perform simple experiments to collect and analyze data to determine the probability of different experimental results. Students...

Students investigate probability and the chance of an even happening. In this algebra lesson, students incorporate their knowledge of probability to solve problems and relate it to the real world. They learn to make decisions based on data.

Students learn that the price of an item is defined by its supply and demand. In this lesson plan students graph the relationship between demand and supply of various products, students also consider hidden costs.

Students define a functions and solve problems using functions. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate functions from non-functions. They differentiate between polynomials of higher degrees.

Pupils rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.

Students explore how the Pythagorean Theorem works and how to apply it.

First graders identify coins (pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters), and their attributes, including physical characteristics and value.

Young scholars investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.

Students multiply decimals and/or mixed numbers. They explore the effects of multiplying decimals and mixed numbers. They practice estimating answers when a number is multiplied by a decimal or mixed number.

Students examine the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of a random shape on a grid. Students develop a better understanding of the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of shapes.
