Students decide on which approach to take to the presentation of a new language. They simply put the structure on the board and explain it. They create a situation and elicit the language when the need arises within the situation. They...

Young scholars explore modes for addition.  In this K-2 mathematics lesson, students investigate the four models of addition (counting, sets, number line, and balanced equations) using dominoes.  Young scholars examine the...

Middle schoolers examine and compare traits of humans and crocodiles.  In this crocodile instructional activity students use a ratio to estimate the height of a person and compare that to a crocodile. 

Learners demonstrate that material strength varies with shape and arrangement.

Students explore the concept of vertex-edge graphs.  For this vertex-edge graphs lesson, students try to construct a graph with a given diameter, number of vertices, size, and planarity.  Students construct various vertex-edge...

Students see how division is used to help solve probability problems. They use tables as data structures where they are used to count outcomes and to compute probabilities. Students use games to help solve probability problems.

Pupils explore story structure. They discuss questions they can ask themselves while silently reading. Students implement their story knowledge by making story maps. They read The Little Pink Rose and the Cloud and create a story map...

Students determine differences in concentrations. They have to state the problem they feel exists, consider possible solutions, and develop a plan to come up with for containers whose labels have fallen off. Students base this off the...

Students solve design problems. In this art and design instructional activity, students create a picture by analyzing two others, and make a prototype of a building. The small group activities call for creativity and ingenuity as well as...

Learners learn about productive resources along with their requirements, supply and demand, savings, investments and interest rates. In this supply and demand lesson, students create a career plan and personal budget of their own and...

Students investigate the concept of a polymer using an experimental design of protecting an egg in a bookbag. They test the properties of polymers and form an educated solution to the proposed problem. Then they describe the steps used...

In this chemical compounds instructional activity, students name 6 chemical structures and complete chemical reactions by writing in the products. This instructional activity has 4 problems to solve.

Students calculate the area and perimeter of a basketball court. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similarity and congruence of geometric objects. They test conjectures and use it to solve problems.

Eighth graders demonstrate the mathematical components of a scientific problem as well as illustrate how real world problems can be solved using math. They demonstrate math skills such as rate calculation, graphing, and linear equations.

In this science worksheet, students solve problems that are related to the concept of molecular polarity. The answers to the problems are included.

Students use bibliotheraphy or the guided use of books to help solve problems. They support targets of bullying as they express their feelings and learn coping strategies. By using books, students can then identify, catharsis and have...

Fourth graders apply their understanding of the elements of plot structure and conflict to cooperatively create storyboards and speak effectively as they present their products. They create storyboards for some of the classic Disney...

Students, working independently and in groups, apply the distance formula to practical situations. After solving various problems, students in pairs design coordinate planes from the school blue print to measure the distance from the...

Students are introduced to the concept of linear functions. Using new terminology, they describe linear functions in sentences and in data tables. Using the internet, they calculate and record answers to problems which are discussed...

Students solve problems using patterns. In this algebra lesson, students identify the relation, domain and range of a function. They graph functions using coordinate pairs.

In this proton NMR spectrum worksheet, students indicate the number of signals in the proton NMR spectrum for compounds and give the structure of the compound and assign the NMR peaks based on given data. This worksheet has 6 problems to...

Middle schoolers solve problems dealing with exponents. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems using interactive online problems. They create visuals and gain a better understanding of the concepts.

Students explore basic building and engineering concepts by constructing a structure that supports weight. They demonstrate an understanding of basic business concepts by estimating the cost and value of a building.

Students analyze data to solve the mystery of what contributed to an ecological disaster at Great Flathead Lake. They read and graph the available data, create a food web of the problem ecosystem, and construct a formal problem statement...
