Curated OER
Brian's Pegboard I
Third graders focus on developing a systematic approach to problem solving while working on a problem that requires them to determine possible outcomes. They use a pegboard as a manipulative in this problem.
Curated OER
Brian's Pegboard II
Students are able to assess a problem and use systematic methods to solve the problem. They also find out all the possible outcomes for a sequence of events using tree diagrams.
Curated OER
The Bell Curve
Students are introduced to the normal distribution and examine the bell curve controversy.
Curated OER
Lesson 56
Sixth graders practice Least Common Multiple in fractions. In this fraction lesson, 6th graders look at two different fractions and find a common denominator. They sing a song to memorize mean, median, and mode.
Curated OER
The Genetic Basis of Neurological Disorders
Young scholars explore neurological disorders. They examine the presence and absence of discernible genes. Students describe neruological diseases and draw faces of affected persons. They play a human neurology disorders learning game.

Chill Out
Students investigate Newton’s Law of Cooling. In this Algebra II/ Pre-Calculus lesson, students explore exponential regression as they conduct an experiment to simulate the temperature variations that occur as a liquid cools. ...
Curated OER
Coin Shake-Up
Students discuss problem and take turns in pairs, one tossing the coins while the other guesses whether the coins land with the same side up or different sides up. They record the results of each guess as same or different.
Curated OER
Something Rotten in West Bloomfield!
Student groups seek a possible ecological problem in the West Bloomfield area then either photograph or videotape the problem. They investigate how to measure the extent of the problem and do it.
Curated OER
The Genetic Basis of Neurological Disorders
High schoolers describe some aspects of known genetic defects on the human neurological condition. They participate in a variety of exercises including drawings, games, and analogies.
