Fourth graders examine the required combinations of plates and predict which combination will generate the most and least current and voltage. They use an ammeter and experiment with combinations of their own testing and record each...

Second graders explore how seeds grow into plants. They discuss types of seeds and place seeds in wet paper towels to germinate. They draw a picture in their journal to record their observations for four days. They take pictures of their...

Seventh graders are introduced to the concept of box-and-whisker plots. A step-by-step process for creating a box-and-whisker plot is provided. The goal of the lesson is that students study the components of a box-and-whisker plot and be...

Students create a population pyramid based on current data for their final project country. They analyze data from comprehension trends of final project country. Students analyze populations of specific countries.

In this math activity, students write the equations in slope intercept form for the equations that are graphed. They also create equations using slope and intercepts.

Fourth graders explore several different types of graphs using M & Ms.

Learners investigate the stock market and investing in corporate stocks by creating an investment portfolio. They develop database worksheets that track their stock's performance over a specified period of time. Students use their...

Students create a 3D vector field map of an electric field. In this physics instructional activity, students measure the voltage inside an aquarium with water. They present their findings and map to class..

Ninth graders study inequalities. After a teacher demonstration, classmates solve and graph inequality problems. In groups, they are assigned specific tasks that lead to the solving of inequality word problems.

Students study the environment and interactions of living organisms. They identify abiotic and biotic factors and create a foldable and vocabulary cards. They create a poster illustrating soil and watch a video to study symbiosis.

Students identify function using tables of data. In this algebra lesson, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.

Students perform translations on different polygons. In this geometry activity, students create figures that will be used as an assessment to represent transformation. They perform hands on creation and relate it to the real world.

Sixth graders determine the mean, range median and mode of a set of numbers and display them. In this data lesson plan students form a set of data and use computer spreadsheet to display the information. They extend of the process...

Learners investigate the slope of various stairways through a "news report" approach and employ mathematical knowledge of applied slope to report on wheelchair accessibility and adherence to Americans with Disabilities Act. They...
