Third graders use items which come in sets to look for real-life multiples and write multiplication problems. This lesson assess the student's understanding of the meaning of multiplication using an array model and manipulatives.

Students analyze the weather patterns in Namibia. They create a graph of the yearly temperatures and use the internet to gather information. They discuss how the weather goes in cycles in the area.

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

Students identify different types of functions and units of measurements. In this statistics lesson plan, students will collect data, graph their data and make predictions about their data. They plot a linear regression graph.

Students define and differentiate between experimental and theoretical probability. In this statistic lesson, students play the game "Monty Hall" and use probability to come up with the best strategies to play the game.

Students explore number sense by participating in a class fraction game. In this number value lesson, students utilize strips of paper with fractions written on them and conduct a trivia game in which teams challenge each other. Students...

Young scholars construct a cross section diagram showing elevation changes on a "cookie island." Using a chocolate chip cookie for an island, they locate the highest point in centimeters on the cookie and create a scale in feet. After...

Second graders study graphing using pictographs and bar graphs. They graph pie charts, line graphs, and also change the graph scale up to 1000. They use the pictograph on the left to create the same graph on the right using a bar graph.

Sixth graders experiment with mean, median, and mode. In this online interactive mean, median, and mode lesson, 6th graders analyze the results of multiple experiments and after they work in groups completing the median, mode, and mean...

For this algebra worksheet, learners relate real world scenario to algebra. They use a mane to make choices when given a limited amount to spend. They complete a money maze and calculate the shortest distance between different cities.

Students investigate the architecture in their hometown by visiting buildings.  For this geometry lesson, students examine buildings through photographs and explain the different geometric shapes found in the architecture....

Tenth graders discuss the history of geometry as it relates to pentagons. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders solve problems of a pentagon inscribed inside of a circle using ratio. They review other properties for shapes of polygons...

Students participate in an auction game in which they buy as many correct sentences as they can with an imaginary $3000.  In this grammar activity, students determine which sentences are correct and buy as many sentences as...

Students analyze data and make inferences. In this algebra lesson, students collect and analyze data as they apply it to the real world.

Students perform an experiment which simulates what happens inside an internal combustion engine. They explain how the chemical reaction they witnessed is similar to what happens inside the car engine.

Students work in pairs to test the strength of spaghetti strands. They collect and graph data to determine a line of best fit. Students create a linear equation to interpret their data. Based on the data collected, students predict...

Fifth graders use formal geometric language to describe polygons (and other shapes) that will tessellate the plane and those that will not. Students make generalizations about the characteristics of a polygon (or other shape) that will...

Students calculate the mean, median, mode, range, and interquartile range for a set of data. They create a box and whisker plot using paper and pencil and technology and determine which measure of central tendency is the most helpful in...

Students share opinions about the goals and strategies of the games they play. They investigate the World Chess Championship by reading and discussion the article "In Major League of Chess, Next Year Comes So Soon." Students study the...

Students view a 30-minute video activity to discover information about the characteristics of frogs and toads. They then transform themselves into frogs and participate in a Jumping Frog Jubilee. They work in groups of three to measure...

Learners match each body part or idea from a work bank about methods of animal adaptations for winter survival. They observe as the first one, food is covered with the whole class before completing the rest of the diagram. They discuss...

Students compare and contrast angles and identify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles. They create rays and angles using uncooked spaghetti, read and discuss key vocabulary terms, and complete a variety of geometry worksheets.

Students find the mass, volume, and density of various objects. In this density measurement activity, students observe how same-sized objects can have different masses, then use water displacement to find the density of each object and...

In this sunspots worksheet, students use the given size of a sunspot and find the total number of Earth's it would take to equal the sunspot size. Students answer 3 questions about the sunspots and are given an extra credit problem with...
