This air pollution worksheet provides a step-by-step process for gathering data about the ozone and weather. Amateur meteorologists enter data for 3 days including the air quality, the temperature, the wind speed, any particular events...

Illuminate your playground with chaulk images. Young aratists use the web to research the work of Keith Haring. Groups then design their own piece of visual art and recreate their images on the school sidewalks of blacktop.

Finished your novel? What’s next? Designing the book cover, of course. But how to begin? After examining the covers of published books and noting the common elements of these jackets, young novelists design a front and back cover for...

Inntroduce primary learners to essential critical reading strategies with an activity based on James Reeves' poem, "The Wind."  Learners listen as the poem is read, first as a riddle, and then re-read with the title visible. The...

Acquire over 1000 Chinese words while playing games! Mandarin Chinese, one of the most desired languages in business and technology, is the focus of this teaching tool. Users will pick up vocabulary and practice tones, all while tapping...

Don't be put off by the fact that the World War I propaganda posters in this packet are Canadian and some of them are even in French. All the better, in fact, to see the techniques. The richly detailed plan has instructors model...

Legends are full of imagery and action. Transfer a scene from a legend to a three-dimensional art piece. Class members first view Inuit art and discuss  legends. They then build scenes that include action, setting, and characters.

Experience anthropomorphism and metamorphosis in action with flipbooks! Instead of giving human characteristics to animals, though, pupils will show a transformation from human to animal or vise versa through their drawings. The...

Kids cast their own plaster tools to stamp image impressions and textures for tiles, pictures frames, and other works of art. Young artists can even create their own watermark to label their stuff.

A reading of Peggy Parish's Amelia Bedelia launches a study of idioms. Groups then select several idioms, write the meaning of the expressions, draw or select images, and use GIMP or Photoshop to create an idiom book. 

Can peas have grandparents? Learn about inherited traits and heredity with a set of activities focused on Mendelian genetics. As your class learns about the process of passing traits along in Punnett squares, they take on the role of...

Camille Seaman's photoessay, "Witnessing Icebergs" documents just a tip of the problem of climate change through images of icebergs in both the Arctic and Antarctic polar regions. After viewing the haunting images, viewers respond...

Beginning with a description that sets the stage, learners are asked to break down the numbers 42 and 63 to find the greatest common denominator using factor trees. As they work through the factoring process, young mathematicians are...

There's nothing irrational about this lesson. Explore the process of multiplying rational expressions through discovery. A well-designed lesson has learners factor and multiply rational expressions by dragging factors to the correct...

Investigate the process of factoring polynomials by grouping. A detailed lesson initially has learners follow a set-by-step example. They then drag terms to complete the three steps of a new problem. 

Climb every mountain, even one you create in an interactive. Individuals solve a problem involving slopes and distances of campsites on a mountain. Answering a set of challenge questions aids in the process.

Young mathematicians make a tree diagram of all possibilities for sandwiches using an interactive. They learn how multiplication speeds up the process of finding the number of outcomes.

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis relate closely, but many don't realize how. Scholars drag and drop the reactants and products to the chemical reactions for both processes. Then they answer three multiple-choice questions.

Investigate the process of combining like terms using an interactive animation. Scholars tackle simplifying expressions by manipulating rectangles that represent the terms. They add and subtract terms to arrive at the result.

Learning isn't a random process. A well-designed interactive lesson helps classes make key conclusions about stratified random sampling. They calculate group percentages and use those percentages to decide on sampling totals.

Finding the sum of the measures of three angles is easy, unless you have no clue what the measures are. Learners use an interactive diagram to see a geometric problem in a different way. A set of challenge questions takes them through...

Use an iterative process to find an approximation of a square root. Pupils use the interactive to find an approximation to find the positive root of a quadratic function with Newton's method. With the graphs, learners position the...

Sum up the shortcuts. The interactive allows pupils to discover a shortcut in finding a partial sum of an arithmetic series. Learners use the shortcut to find other sums and to verify the process.

Scientists work every day to find solutions to genetic diseases. Scholars learn about the process of gene sequencing, mutations, and the results. They explore genetic diseases and therapies to intervene and help and, through case...
