Students review census data to correlate to emigration in Kansas. In this Westward Expansion instructional activity, students analyze a painting and create definitions for emigration and discuss why people emigrate. Students read and...

Students predict the shape of a geometric figure in 3D. In this geometry instructional activity, students construct 3D shapes to perfect their knowledge of measuring and predicting. This assignment is also available as an online...

Students explore math in their everyday lives. In this math lesson, students discuss how they use math in their everyday lives. Students work in groups to brainstorm how they use math everyday.

Students figure the best gas prices. In this math lesson plan, students add and multiply with decimals. Students complete a worksheet to find which supplier offers the best gas prices.

Second graders create a graph about TV watching. In this bar graph lesson plan, 2nd graders make a hypothesis about how much TV 2nd graders watch per week. They record their TV watching for a week and bring it to school to create a class...

Students use the scientific process and their knowledge to obeserve, predict, and test their predictions under controlled conditions to verify their predictions and then make sense of these predictions. They also graph, write...

Sixth graders review the different types of graphs (bar, line, pictograph) They predict the data set they can garner several boxes of conversation hearts. Students record their data using an Excel spreadsheet. They create a graph based...

Students calculate the threshold value for the number of susceptible people needed to create an epidemic. They examine a real life flu epidemic and use the SIR model to solve the problems. Students discover they can use mathematics to...

Take any number, multiply it by five, and then divide by five. Did you end up with the original number? In the same vein as the previous lesson plan, pupils discover the relationship between multiplication and division. They develop the...

Even or not, here I come. Groups investigate the parity of products and sums of whole numbers in the 17th lesson in a series of 21. Using dots to represent numbers, they develop a pattern for the products of two even numbers; two odd...

Fifth graders build increasingly larger squares and triangles using pattern blocks. They record the growth patterns on a chart and look for corresponding numerical patterns. Students describe the patterns they find and use them to...

Third graders review ideas about sound and vibration to make their own stringed instrument. They review what a pictograph and bar graph are. Pupils conduct a survey within the classroom to choose the four favorite string instruments and...

Help young scientists connect with nature and learn about trees with a fun life science lesson. Heading out into the school yard, children choose a tree to adopt, taking measurements, writing descriptions, and drawing sketches of it in...

Class members make a real connection to matrices in the 25th part of a series of 32 by looking at the identity matrix and making the connection to the multiplicative identity in the real numbers. Pupils explore different...

Young scholars engage in an activity which demonstrates how potential energy (PE) can be converted to kinetic energy (KE) and back again. Given a pendulum height, students calculate and predict how fast the pendulum will swing by...

Everyone loves a lesson that involves throwing things around! To understand probability, your experimenters will predict how different cylinder-shaped objects will land when tossed. When the data is collected, they will calculate the...
