Curated OER
Coastal Threat: A Story in Unit Conversions
Students convert measurements from one unit to another. In this math lesson, students study the environmental consequences of oil spills. They replicate an oil spill event by modeling and scaling.
Curated OER
Volcano Activity
In this volcano worksheet, learners measure the slope of a volcano and its baseline and summit degrees. They identify the type of volcano, the type of lava and the type of eruption.
Curated OER
Drop Zone Challenge
In this physics worksheet, students construct a parachute using the materials listed on the sheet that will have the longest and closest target when dropped from a specific height. Then they record their results after three trials.
Curated OER
Geometry: Calculating Volumes
In this volume worksheet, students find the volume of 8 prisms. Students are given the length, width, and height of each prism.
Curated OER
Wood is Everywhere!
Fifth graders diagram and label the parts of a tree. For this lesson on how trees obtain food, 5th graders diagram and label the parts of a tree, and determine the diameter, height, and age of a tree.
Curated OER
Draw To Scale The E-Z Way
Fourth graders draw a rough floor plan of a house to scale without using a ruler to determine measurements. They see how architects use scale to draw blueprints, and solve math problems using scale.
Curated OER
Whose Skeleton is in Your Closet?
Young scholars analyze and measure parts of a model skeleton to determine sex, race, height and age. They produce a lab report from their inquiries.
Curated OER
