The Flat Earth

Pupils differentiate functions based on their domain and range. In this algebra lesson, students define function, domain, range and relation. They analyze graphs and coordinate pairs for input and output values making up a function.

Let the resource take center stage in a lesson on population density. Scholars use provided historical data on the center of the US population to see how it shifted over time. They plot the data on a spreadsheet to look the speed of its...

Geometry meets earth science as high schoolers investigate the cause and features of the four seasons. The effects of Earth's axis tilt features prominently, along with both the rotation of the earth about the axis and its orbit about...

Students classify polygons by name and shape. In this geometry lesson, students identify the lateral surface of each conic. They differentiate between cones, cylinders and spheres.

Students investigate spheres through sketches. In this geometry instructional activity, students sketch two and three dimensional shapes creating nets. They find and differentiate between the nets for prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders...

For this algebra worksheet, students solve word problems using algebraic equations and implicit differentiation. There are 16 problems dealing implicit differentiation.

Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts to finding...

Young scholars will examine the layers of the Earth. In this geology lesson, students create a scale model of the Earth's interior using cash register tape. They will determine the percentage of error in the scale compared to the actual...

Time to move into the third dimension! Learn the names of the geometric solids and count faces, edges, and vertices. Then learn to recognize nets that create a given solid. 

Students answer the following question: "Using the lines of latitude and longitude, what is the distance (in degrees) if you were to travel from NASA Dryden to NASA Ames?" They use the distance formula to find the distance (measured in...
