Mapping Data Made Manageable
Students explore how to select unbiased random samples as they choose report data to include on maps. They propose methods for choosing random numbers and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. They consider bias in science.
Curated OER
Collision Course
Students measure the speed of moving marbles and use the results to calculate velocity and momentum. They analyze the events preceding a Japanese train crash.
Curated OER
Time Travel
Students investigate the concept of time travel and quantum physics. They complete a Webquest, read excerpts from the book, 'The Time Machine,' play an online time traveler game, and read and evaluate newspaper articles about time.
Curated OER
Using Coordinate Geometry by Land, Sea and Outer Space.
Students complete a table of values and plot points, as well as construct a graph on a coordinate grid. They construct two graphs on the same coordinate system, and identify the point of intersection. Students represent and record...

How Does the USS Alabama Float?
Young scholars investigate buoyancy. In this buoyancy instructional activity, students apply the Archimedes Principle of Buoyancy to the experiment conducted in class to determine how battleships float.
Curated OER
The Discovery of Ohm's Law
Learners study Georg Ohm and how he changed mathematics with his law. In this experimental evidence and stastics instructional activity students complete an experiment on the characteristics of Ohm's law.
Curated OER
Eratosthenes
Students examine what Eratosthenes is and the history behind him. In this earth lesson students complete a hands on activity to repeat Eratosthenes' experiment.
Curated OER
Storm Busters
Learners investigate hurricanes and invent a way to diffuse or redirect a hurricane before it becomes destructive in this technology-based science project. Cooperative learning groups are emphasized.
Curated OER
The Changing Face of Science
Students are introduced to the ways women have changed the fields of Science and Math. Using the internet, they research women's contributions to these two fields and take notes on the information they find. They organize their data...
Curated OER
Measuring The Earth
Learners use their geometry and trigonometry skills to determine the distance between their school and another school.
Curated OER
How Things Fly
Pupils conduct a series of hands-on experiments that help them explain the role of lift in fixed-wing flight. They observe the flow of air and water around several surfaces and then consider the dynamics of airflow around an aircraft wing.
Curated OER
Coordinates
Young scholars use cartesian coordinates (x,y,z) in 3-dimensional space. [Optional: appreciate there exist two ways of defining the z axis, and which of them is used.] They become familiar with the tools and terms used by surveyors.
Curated OER
Flight Home
Students experiment to investigate the role in fixed-wing flight. They watch as air and water flow around surfaces to examine the dynamics of airflow around an aircraft wing.
Curated OER
Estimation and Pattern Discovery
Students collect sunflower heads from their community garden. They estimate its seed count using different strategies. They graph their estimations on a graph and use calculators to find the actual total.
Curated OER
How Many Regular Polyhedrons Are There In This or Any Universe?
Students examine the idea of "regularity" as it pertains to geometry. In this geometry lesson students complete several assignments that are part of trihedral angles and regular polyhedrons.
