Students investigate linear equations using the Ti-Calculator. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines and identify the different quadrants on a coordinate plane. They identify ordered pairs used to plot lines.

Students collect information and use a line to represent it. In this algebra lesson, students investigate real world data to see if it makes a line. They graph the line comparing the relationship of the x axis with that of the...

Young scholars create an anti drug mural inspired by the work of Keith Haring. In this mural lesson plan, students use line, color, and Haring people.

Students investigate properties of lines and points by making a rover. In this algebra lesson, students plot points correctly on a coordinate plane. They identify coordinate pairs given the plots and lines.

Learners explore fossils and dinosaurs. For this science lesson, students discuss how fossils are created. Learners draw muscles and skin on a stegosaurus.

Students complete time and distance problems. Using appropriate problem solving strategies, students determine when a helicopter will catch a cruise ship. Students write a summary of their solution process. They complete a graph to...

Students measure and calculate heart rates per minute and for other units of time. They determine the amount of blood pumped by their heart during various intervals of time.

Students collect, organize, and analyze primary and secondary source information that documents a local office. (Students synthesize what they have learned to predict the office's organization and functions in the year 2025.)

Students rotate through various lab stations in groups as they experiment with the concepts of conduction, induction and friction. They use a generator, aluminum pie pans, paper, plastic, styrofoam and other materials to complete their...

Fifth graders plan and conduct investigations to identify and record tree species. They complete Forest Plotter and write about tree species found and draw pictures of them.

Students explore air and clouds by watching demonstration. They perform an experiment to measure air pressure changes.

Students examine and interpret data relating to U.S.-Mexico borderland realities, and consider such aspects of social science as the study of population, crime, government spending, pollution, health, and economics.

Students examine the strengths and weaknesses of the Senate in the Canadian Parliament. The role of the Senate is probed as its usefulness is scrutinized.

Sixth graders practice collecting, organizing and displaying data. They create circle, bar, line and picto graphs. They analyze data in small and large sample groups.

Students explore how scientists keep track of fish populations and why it is important to do so. They describe three methods currently used to sample fish populations. They participate in activities to simulate several of the sampling...

Students read and relate the poem, "Clouds" by Aileen Fisher to a demonstration on cloud formation. They create clouds in jars using ice water and matches then discuss the ways clouds can be used to predict weather.

Fourth graders complete a multi-faceted project about the people, places, and government of Wisconsin. Working with traditional and technological resources, they research various topics related to the history of Wisconsin and create a...

Students explore the motion of a toy bungee jumper using the scientific method. They view a video of a bungee jumper and discuss what can be measured about a bungee jump. Students discuss the scientific mehtod and how to design an...

Students discover patterns and write conjectures relating to perimeters and polygons. Working in cooperative learning groups, they use manipulatives and graphic organizers to solve problems then answer a series of questions in which they...

Learners review the principles of graphing linear functions. They discuss plotting points on a coordinate plane, solving using a table, and then graphing. Students solve problems and determine the slope of the line, y-intercept and if...

Students discover the difference between kinetic and potential energy in an experiment using toy cars and tracks. In small groups, they set up the experiment to determine the distance milk cartons will travel when hit by toy car. They...

Students explore the rotation of the planets from various locations on Earth Using planetarium software, they will make observations, and explain how the rotation of the planets varies based on ones location on the Earth. Students...

Students discover the differences between weather and climate in this long-term instructional activity introduction. They create rain gauges and practice reading rainfall measurements, view a website showing the cloud cover in their...

Students analyze the relevance of newly-uncovered, revealing C.I.A. document from the 1950's to people today. They explore the details and impact of a secret history of the C.I.A. in Iran by reading and discussing "How a Plot Convulsed...
