Multiplying Binomials
Pupils factor binomials and apply it. In this algebra lesson, students use patterns to factor difference of squares and FOIL to factor other binomials. They apply the concept of binomials to vertical multiplication.
Curated OER
The Bell Curve
Students are introduced to the normal distribution and examine the bell curve controversy.
Curated OER
Dino Cylinders
Students investigate the capacity of containers using small dinosaur figures as the unit of measure. They work with a number of different shaped containers to compare the capacity as they practice counting the dinosaurs. They complete an...

A Holocaust Monument
Students create a Holocaust memorial. In this interdisciplinary lesson, students use geometric shapes or forms to create a Holocaust monument.
Curated OER
Sculptural Statistics
Students conduct an experiment to determine the frequency of pulling various parts of an ancient Greek sculpture out of a hat.
Curated OER
Properties of Fractals
Students build a working definition of regular fractal, look carefully at the concepts of dimension and scale, and are introduced to logarithms. They solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial and error and using...
