Students research about the preparation and ingestion of eggs and egg dishes in foreign cultures. Students gain introductory foreign languages mastery. Students also exert their creative skills and acquired knowledge in the creation of...

Students import ocean bathymetry data from text files. They then graph these observations along with model predictions to assess the model's ability to simulate observed topographic features of the North Atlantic. Students use Excel to...

Students address the question of the value of refrigeration in keeping food (chicken) from "spoiling". They experiment with aseptic technique skills in handling sterile water and some type of quoting system.

Students discover how race and gender relate to their sense of civic obligation. As a class, they create a 3-D toolbox for making a difference in their community or the world. They write an essay to accompany it explaining the design and...

Students are given a line drawing that only that students sees. They are asked to describe the drawings to the reset of the class to see if they can draw it as the teacher describes it. Students work with a partner, and they are given a...

Young scholars use the Idaho Digital Atlas. They look at the map on the main page and determine where the coast of the Pacific Ocean was before the Jurassic time period and how the coast has moved from its previous position to its...

Second graders count by 5's to 100. In this math lesson conducted on the 100th day of school, 2nd graders use picture stamps in the KidPix program to count by 5's and get to 100.

Students create and move pictures to illustrate the various combinations for the number 5. For this number 5 lesson, students use the stamp function and paint tools to create a number sentence for all possible combinations of the number 5.

Students participate in the activities their teaching initiates from the packet for classroom behavior, social skills, and learning environments.

Students identify two dimensional shapes in the school environment. In this basic shapes lesson, students watch a video about rectangles and squares. Students find examples shapes in their classroom and draw them. Students present their...

In this careers instructional activity, students use the decision making chart to list and compare three possible career choices. Students use the provided formulas to help narrow their career choices.

Data Sampling is a cutting-edge digital program designed to give middle schoolers multiple opportunities to dig deeply into the mathematics and real-world purposes of representative sampling.

Seventh graders begin learning about compound events by considering independent events. They will consider everyday objects with known probabilities. Students will represent sample spaces using lists, tables, and tree diagrams in order...

Given a population with known characteristics, students will be able to use a variety of methods to generate random samples of the same size in order to understand how a random sample is representative of a population.

Seventh graders will be able to represent the sample space of compound events, and calculate the probability of events using their sample space.

Middle schoolers will continue to apply their understanding of compound independent events. They will calculate probabilities and represent sample spaces with visual representations.

Do you know how many possible outcomes there are in rock, paper, scissors? Let's find out!

Search the collections of the National Museum of the American Indian, which include a representative sample of this Smithsonian Institution's object and historic photo collections.

The maps and visualizations represented in this case study are a representative sample of the methodologies employed to explore the spatial, temporal, and experiential dimensions of the evacuations of more than 57,000 Jewish and...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this learning module, students are asked to partition a shape into rectangles and add their areas together to get the area of the whole figure. Includes video...

Power Point presentation on scientific method for NAS 102 Human and Environmental Biology II.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students will identify three methods for measuring the amount of matter in a sample. They will define the mole and its relationship...

Students learn about seismology by using a sample seismograph constructed out of common classroom materials. The seismograph creates a seismogram based on vibrations caused by moving a ruler. The students work in groups to represent an...

Students are given the opportunity to visualize and interact with concepts they have already learned, specifically algebraic equations and solving for unknown variables. Students construct a balancing seesaw system (LEGO Balance Scale)...
