Fourth graders design a table and chair arrangement. In this mathematical reasoning lesson, 4th graders place tables shaped like equilateral triangles so that they seat the appropriate number of guests. 

In this function worksheet, students find the derivatives of a function. They graph each function and determine the interval. This three-page worksheet contains 8 problems.

Young scholars complete a series of activities to better understand space studies. In this space science lesson, the teacher is provided with a number of activities for students to complete such as finding words that begin with the...

Students explore the concept of probability.  In this probability instructional activity, students use area to determine probability.  Students use charts and spinners to help determine the probability of events such as...

Students recognize that one source of drinking water is ground water located in aquifers. They create a model of an aquifer and summarize their experience in a report.

Learners explore and analyze categorizing objects, material culture artifacts, from a variety of perspectives, to consider the story behind each one. They research skills by assessing how to look at artifacts as cultural outsiders would....

Students choose the correct strategy to solve multiplication and division. In this algorithm lesson, students use at least two strategies that use properties of operations and estimation. Students also recognize the relationship between...

This resource provides an explanation of NASA's GALEX mission and how the space-based telescope can view distant galaxies as they were billions of years ago. The resource also discusses the other aspects of galaxies that GALEX...

What are the words that use the silent e? With this resource, youngsters complete a teacher-led activity for spelling words with silent e sounds. They then complete a worksheet that adds suffixes s, ed, or ing to words that end in silent e.

Students blend phonemes. In this guided reading lesson, students create words by blending isolated phonemes. Students read a book discussing families.

In this logic and measurement worksheet, students count the number of circle and triangles in 2 figures before extending that number to larger patterns. They determine the number of hours in given time periods, and determine if 4...

Middle schoolers identify objects that are the same shape and size. They compare and contrast attributes of two-and three-dimensional objects using appropriate vocabulary. Pupils justify an extension of a geometric pattern to explain...

Second graders read "The King's Chessboard" by David Birch. The teacher reads the story aloud and pauses at several points for students to calculate the next number in a pattern of doubling.

Students practice descriptive writing. In this unique writing lesson, students hear a story about a mitten. Then three grade levels come together to first, create a mitten on KidPix; second, describe the designed mitten; and third, try...

Ninth graders develop an understanding of music notation and become proficient at reading rhythms by sight. They explore rhythms base on divisions of two and four and triplets.

Seventh graders practice their spelling skills. In this word patterns and analysis lesson, 7th graders  examine the unstressed -er, -or, and -ar. Students listen to a mini lesson regarding the endings and then complete a worksheet....

Fifth graders extend their knowledge of developing maps. They work in cooperative groups to develop an amusement park display and a brochure.

Fourth graders observe geometric patterns to determine if they show rotational or point symmetry. They participate in the a demonstration lesson with a triangle. They create their own designs that show rotational or point symmetry.

Fourth graders use properties of operations and problem-solving strategies to do mental calculations, and look for patterns in the solutions. They create an array, using each of the digits 1-9 exactly once to form addition problems...

Students practice overarm throw/stricking pattern, particularly: opposition in the legs, increased trunk rotation, preparatory back swing, and uncoiling of trunk, humerous and forearm.

Students experiment and analyze triangulation to assess degrees of combined angles, predict polygons that tessellate as well as extending of shapes to create tessellations. They explore the concept of why some polygons tessellate when...

Pupils, through small group discussion, identify and share a rationale for shapes and patterns in the construction of a mobile that represents the solar system that makes them think of the creation of our solar system.

Fifth graders take addition timed tests every day for a two week period. Using the data from the timed tests, they create a bar graph using Microsoft Excel computer software, a personal bar graph using graph paper and colored pencils,...

Students practice their counting skills. For this counting practice lesson, students count from one to five orally, write the numbers through five independently, identify the numbers, and use macaroni for a hands on counting activity.
