Students design a census class and school, then tabulate the results. They respond to a sample census, then reflect on why questions of race and national origin are different.

Explore the relationship between perimeter and area. Learners input the area and perimeter for shapes on the Shape Explorer website, solve problems using geoboards, complete a worksheet, create a PowerPoint presentation, and take an...

Students read The Greedy Triangle and discuss geometric solids. For this geometry lesson, students list the geo-solids in the world and create a graphic organizer to show where geo-solids exist.

In these math word problem worksheets, students help solve the mystery about 'The Case of the Shifting Shapes.' Students solve the problem by completing a rectangle area problem and also determine where Rex Tangle will appear next.

In order to access all parts of this resource, you need Agent Sheet software; without this software, you may still be able to do these activities, but the Word document is not very detailed regarding the lab. The objective is to observe...
