Second graders, in groups, predict the weight of a pumpkin and the number of seeds it might have. Then they find and record the actual weight and actual number of seeds. They compare and contrast the size of the pumpkin to the number of...

Students design a structure capabl;e of holding a textbook. They demonstrate that the weight of a textbook is offset by the normal force exerted on the book by the structure.

Students explore how water shortage affects everyday life. For this social justice lesson, students discuss information about water shortage in Ghana. A water shortage simulation/game is played in which a "Canadian" team starts with a...

Third graders examine and explore a variety of ways to measure length. They discuss how to measure large objects using the end-to-end method, and in small groups measure the length of the room using the end-to-end method with a...

Students convert metric units of length, specifically meters, centimeters, and millimeters. In this lesson of converting measurements, students participate in various games which require them to put the measurements in order or convert...

Students examine the food pyramid. In this health/math lesson students make biscuits. Students are assigned a group to measure out ingredients. Students also discuss which part of the food pyramid biscuits fall into and the nutritional...

Students predict which of two glasses is 1/2 full using visual estimation, height measurement, and liquid measurement methods. Mathematical equations to accurately solve the problem are determined and verified.

In this math worksheet, 6th graders complete multiple choice questions about variables, money, weight, and more. Students complete 15 questions.

Students analyze graphs to determine relationships between variables and rates of change. They determine the basic concepts about static reaction forces. They determine the slope and equation of a line.

In this problem solving strategies worksheet, students solve and complete 9 different word problems that include money and measurement. First, they list the sub-problems for each problem, solve the sub-problems and solve the problem....
