Let's meet in the middle. Given two points on the coordinate plane, pupils use the interactive to find the midpoint. The interactive provides a graphical display of the midpoint and the midpoint formula with the coordinates of the...

Sometimes line segments just refuse to meet. Young mathematicians connect houses on an interactive map using line segments. They must then determine whether these line segment pairs are intersecting or parallel.

Map this! Help your young mathematicians draw a circular island on a map. Given specifics of the location and size of an island on a map, pupils transform a circle to meet the given requirements. They then determine the location of the...

Students accurately measure several common objects for thickness using micrometer calipers. They work individually to analyze whether given objects would meet the correct specifications required for a particular manufactured product.

Students accurately measure several dimensions of common objects using calipers. They determine whether a manufactured product meets correct specifications for length, width, height, depth and diameter.

Gain some perspective on linear pairs. Aspiring mathematicians adjust the vanishing point on a perspective drawing. They see the effect on linear pairs of angles and answer five challenge questions based on their observations.

Logically speaking, here is a great resource. Young mathematicians apply an interactive to consider the converse, inverse and contrapositive statements. Eight challenge questions assess understanding of the material.

There's nothing fishy about this resource. A slider interactive lets users adjust the side length of a fish tank cube. It aids in seeing changes in the volume and how to express the volume using an algebraic expression.

Young scholars accurately measure several common objects using the industrial ruler. They work individually to analyze whether given objects would meet the correct specifications required for a particular manufactured product.

Thirsty plants soak up every bit of a rainfall, but what happens to the rain that hits the roof? Calculate the amount of rainwater from your school's roof with an Earth science activity, which brings measurement skills, observation...

First graders, in groups, discover which colors absorb heat and which colors best reflect heat. They do this using the scientific method.

Fifth graders listen as the teacher explains the Mini Economy to be activated in the classroom in the next few weeks. They examine how they to apply for jobs, make money, determine how to save it, and how monetary mishaps occur...

Students accurately assess their own income taxes using actual tax forms. They read and fill out the proper forms.

Students write the last three sections of a business plan for their hypothetical business: the operation timetable, the start up costs, and the three-month projected statement.

Students participate in monthly scaffolded lessons that focus on working with whole numbers from 1 to 10. They work with tiles on exploration mats, number tile mats, and a number representation book. Each month they complete activities...

Students participate in paper recycling. They are taught to environmental awareness of recycling and its importance in their future. Students discuss and identify the problems of how they can minimize waste. They brainstorm suggestions...

Young scholars investigate the first Peter the Mint Eagle, who lived at the Philadelphia Mint from 1830 to 1836. They determine how many months Peter was there and use pictures, numbers, equations, and/or words to explain how they came...

Young scholars determine and compare hieroglyph content and frequency to an alternative alphabet based on symbols that mimic sounds of the alphabet.
