Students arrange the planets according to their distances from the sun. In this astronomy lesson, students list interesting properties about each planet. They identify an unknown planet photo.

Students examine statistics and data analysis concepts from the practical questions that arise in everyday life.

Students examine the differences in exponential growth and linear growth of a system. They interpret data on graphs and develop their own charts. They answer discussion questions as well.

Pupils 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 logs.

Students explore and complete a variety of activities demonstration probability. They make observations about the results of the activities. Students complete and discuss conditional probability. Also, students draw conclusions about...

Pupils randomly select dimensions for three geometric shapes (square, right triangle and circle). From the graphs they compare and contrast the graphical results of each shape.

This S.O.S. tutorial gives students a basic review of simple fractions. Follow the tutorial to refresh your skills involving simple fraction manipulations. Each section contains problems with links to the answers.

Two fraction activities are highlighted at this one page website. Both use manipulatives to help students begin to understand the basic concepts of fractions.

[Free Registration/Login Required] A collection of teacher-created fraction activities, patterns, and manipulatives that are printable. Includes flashcards, worksheets and a take-home project with fractions for both primary and elementary.

This site from the Math Forum is a series of lesson plans with great ideas and an excellent Web site that uses virtual manipulatives with students.

Explore division by modeling problems and grouping with manipulatives. This video focuses on dividing whole numbers by unit fractions and modeling the problems with unit blocks.

Practice combining like terms for expressions that have rational coefficients. This requires adding and subtracting fractions. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or...
