Your young architects use the Internet to research tall structures or sky scrapers to help in the design of their scale drawings. This is lesson one of three in which learners design, build, and test model skyscrapers for seismic safety....

Seventh and eighth graders solve math problems where they multiply positive and negative integers. In this multiplication lesson plan, learners use slate boards to complete problems. The step-by-step plan tells you what to write and say...

Study linear equations with this algebra lesson. Middle schoolers solve linear equations using the appropriate properties and create their own equations for each other to solve.

Learners solve math problems involving subtracting with regrouping. They practice the steps for subtracting in the hundreds place with regrouping, through teacher guided practice. Independently, pupils complete story problems involving...

Kindergartners are introduced to basic shapes. Learners spend 45 minutes a day in geometry centers carrying out the activities outlined in this ambitious plan. There are games, hands-on activities, interactive websites, art projects,...

Students collect data from an experiment they perform. In this data lesson, students use multiple representations to solve practical problems; describe advantages and disadvantages of the use of each representation. Then, they evaluate...

Students represent and solve problems using geometric models and apply geometric properties and relationships. They also practice constructing and measuring angles. By constructing, drawing, visualizing, and comparing geometric figures...

Students explore how GPS works, the mathematics behind the technology, and how GPS is used. They find positions in one and two dimensions, and participate in a WebQuest that explores how math is used to find a location on Earth using GPS.

Pupils construct models of various tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes that are possible, classify n-cubes into different groupings, and draw these figures on isometric dot paper giving true perspective to what they visualize.

Students state the general rule for a practical situation. They describe a continuing pattern. They use toothpicks to help visualize the problem and answer it correctly.

Learners create three-dimension models demonstrating exponents, multiplying and dividing of fractions, and the use of repeating patterns in tessellations, mirror images, and tiling.

Students classify, flip, slide, and turn a quantity of quadrilaterals.

Third graders use visualization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to solve problems. They use technology to enhance learning and problem solving. The software program called " Tan Free" allows students to rotate, or flip seven...

Young scholars use cubes to construct and visualize two-and three-dimensional shapes to develop spatial thinking and review basic geometric principles through real-life applications. They are given the opportunity to build and build and...

Travel the world from the comfort of your classroom with a lesson that features Google Earth. High schoolers follow a series of steps to locate places all over the earth with sets of coordinates. Additionally, they measure the distance...

Young scholars investigate the creation of three dimensional drawings. In this geometry lesson, students analyze and complete orthographic drawings. They Cabri software to manipulate and move the drawings around.

Students investigate orthographic drawings. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of three dimensional drawings in space. They solve problems using volume and area formulas.

Students make conjectures of intersecting circles. In this geometry instructional activity, students observe circles and their position in space. They investigate and observe two and three dimensional objects.

Students identify properties of circles. In this geometry lesson, students identify the center of two intersecting circles.They use Cabri software to create circles and move it around to make observation.

Students investigate the relationship between angles of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of right and non-right triangles. They differentiate between vertical and supplementary angles.

Students find missing angles and sides of triangles. In this geometry instructional activity, students create intersecting lines to measure angles. They use Cabri Software to create virtual angles.

Pupils perform operation with secant and tangent lines. In this calculus lesson, students find the derivative and relate it to the slope of a line. They differentiate between secant and tangent as they intersect a circle, using Cabri.

Fourth graders identify line symmetry. In this geometry lesson, 4th graders are given various pictures and identify if they are symmetrical. Students search through magazines for symmetrical pictures.

Students calculate the distance from the vertex of a triangle to the center. In this geometry lesson, students find the shortest distance between a point and the vertex of a triangle. They relate this concept of distance to the real world.
