Students choose the correct strategy to solve multiplication and division. In this algorithm lesson plan, students use at least two strategies that use properties of operations and estimation. Students also recognize the relationship...

Students explore number sense by completing a number set worksheet. In this fractions instructional activity, students utilize pattern blocks as a visual reference to the fractions they practice identifying. Students read the book...

Students explore the environmental factors that influence where fish live and determine the makeup of fish communities in the Hudson. They interpret guided observations and measurements to assess patterns, sequences and relationships.

Students investigate the various techniques that studenT book illustrators utilize such as paper collage, die-cut pages, and object stencils for relief printing.

Pupils explore music, patterns, notes, and instrumentation. They practice the proper technique at a keyboard and perform a simple three note pattern.

Students participate in a visual arts lesson that focuses on patterns used in a macaroni necklace that represents the students' birthdays in the Chinese calendar. They compare the Chinese calendar to the one used in America and look at...

Students participate in a lesson to comprehend the concept of probability while rolling dice. They recognize patterns while making observations and recording the data for each roll. Students also review place values while playing a game...

Learning to read data tables is an important skill. Use this resource for your third, fourth, or fifth graders. Learners will will study tables of fish collection data to draw conclusions. The data is based on fish environments in the...

Students build a working definition of regular fractal, look carefully at the concepts of dimension and scale, and are introduced to logarithms. They solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial and error and using...

Students build a working definition of a regular fractal, they measure the concepts of dimensions and scale, they explore the concept of a logarithm and they attempt to solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial...

Pupils recognize canons by listening and by reading them in the context of a musical work. They notate canons and perform canons on their instrument. Afterward, they combine their simple canons with other students in order to create...

Students recognize that quilts are created by geometric components. They examine how quilts are an artistic art form that show the cultural heritage of the people who make them.

Students develop an understanding of how outer walls, doors and windows are added to construction. They examine the jobs of specific construction workers and how they bring the job to completion. They design a brick laying pattern.

Students discover examples of adinkra cloth. They explain the history of the symbols themselves. They create a larger pattern using geometric symbols. They discover how the symbols can be used to communicate with one another.

Middle schoolers work together to determine how fast trees go. They make predictions and complete simple measurements. They answer questions to end the lesson.

First graders are introduced and practice using a calculator. Individually, they enter and complete simple addition and subtraction problems. After the answer is displayed, they identify the place value for ones, tens, and hundreds...

Students explore technology by participating in a word structure activity. In this grammar instructional activity, students utilize the Writing Center computer software to practice keyboarding while identifying word formations in class....

Liquids, gases, and solids are the states of matter in which scholars investigate in a lesson plan that offers in-depth information and engaging activities that look into the three states and the changes their properties make when mixed...

Enhance your states of matter lessons with a hands-on science investigation that compares six different balls' color, texture, size, weight, ability to bounce, and buoyancy. 

Explore the concept of density within states of matter—gases, liquids, and solids—through a group experiment in which young scientists test objects' texture, color, weight, size, and ability to sink or float.    

Explore the properties of gases through one activity and two investigations in which super scientists observe the changes gas makes when encountering different conditions.

Here is part two of a two-part activity in which scholars investigate the changing states of water—liquid, solid, and gas—and how energy from heat changes its molecules. With grand conversation, two demonstrations, and one hands-on...

Super scientists visit ten stations to predict, observe, and draw conclusions about the physical and chemical changes that occur when different states of matter—liquid, solid, and gas—are placed under a variety of conditions. To...
