Students design a new classroom workplace. In this architecture lesson, students use area formulas to identify the problem with the existing desks in their classroom. Students design their own solution volume formulas to solve the...

 Students explore the likelihood of events.  In this logical thinking lesson plan, 3rd graders are given several scenarios and determine whether the possibility of the described event actually happening is likely, unlikely, or...

Learners plot on a coordinate plane. For this algebra lesson, students identify points on a coordinate plane and graph lines given coordinate pairs. They create a model as they study bald eagles and their growth and decay.

Students sequence seven events from "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by matching the correct event with the day of the week. They recall details from the story as they unscramble words on a worksheet.

Ninth graders demonstrate that factoring polynomials having common factors is the inverse process of multiplying a polynomial by a monomial. students find the greatest common factor.

Students study the basic elements and concepts of the visual art's perceptual component - such as shape, line and color. They create tessellations that foster problem solving and reflective thinking.

Second graders use colored candies to collect data, construct double bar graphs, and find averages.

Fourth graders plot points on a graph, connect the dots to make the ocean floor profile and label the topographical features. They utilize a worksheet and a website imbedded in this plan to plot the ocean floor.

Students use their knowledge of fractions and ratios to build gingerbread houses. In this fractions and ratios lesson plan, students use graham crackers, milk cartons, icing, and more.

Students conduct a census at school. They collect data, tally it, and create a frequency table. Students display their data in three different types of graphs. They write complete sentences describing the graph.

Students explore the mathematical concept of place value. In this mathematics lesson, students use a question and answer format. The instructor clarifies the answers and possible mistakes as discussion takes place.

Ninth graders graph linear equations and inequalities in two variables and then, they write equations of lines and find and use the slope and y-intercept of lines. They use linear equations to model real data and define to define the...

Ninth graders identify and describe the x-intercept as the place where the line crosses the x-axis as it applies to football. They create their own differentiations to reinforce the distinction between the x-intercept and the...

Students practice telling time through movement, teamwork and cooperation - as they demonstrate how a clock represents time. They play a game of telling time in order to master the lesson objectives.

Sixth graders identify, compare and interpret the characteristics of polygons and angles in order to meet spatial sense, geometry and measurement standards. They also sort shapes into three categories, polygons (regular and irregular)...

Third graders describe and compare attributes of two-dimensional shapes. They explain geometric terms, angles and shapes. Students demonstrate each vocabulary word with their body and they mirror the body positions associated with each...

First graders identify and demonstrate how symbols and models are used to represent features of the environment. They identify the directions on a map as east, west, north, and south. Finally, 1st graders play a direction game, move to...

Students examine the connection between geometry and architecture. In this geometry and architecture lesson, students view a video which details a geometry class design project. Students then use the Internet in a scavenger hunt to find...

Second graders predict and graph data based on the color of jelly beans they think are in a handful. In this prediction lesson plan, 2nd graders will predict how many of each color jellybean are in a handful. Then they graph these...

Students derive a formula for the interior degrees in any convex polygon. In this geometric figure lesson, students determine the shapes of various polygons and the number of triangles formed. They use this information to derive the...

Young scholars create a scale drawing. In this ultimate classroom instructional activity, groups of students create a scale drawing of the ultimate classroom. They explore the and explain the constructed design.

Students investigate the world of electricity by completing a KWL sheet. In this energy lesson, students view PowerPoint presentations about electricity, who invented it, and how it is used today. Students define several electricity...

For this numbers worksheet, students find all the vegetables in the picture and count and color them. The vegetable name and the number of each one in the picture is listed on the side.

Pupils use the partial products algorithm to complete multiplication problems. In this partial products lesson plan, students are introduced to the algorithm and connect the relationship to multiplication and division problems.
