In this pie chart worksheet, students transpose musical genre data to the charts and then answer questions about the results.

Students examine concept of time, and explore difference between analog and digital clocks; students make art project to represent time and create a time-story problem and solution.

Have you ever wondered how circles and angles relate to each other? Read a passage about right angles, acute angles, and obtuse angles, and answer reading comprehension questions about the information you learn. 

Go on a moon mining expedition from the safety of your classroom with this space exploration simulation. Using simple models of the moon's surface prepared ahead of time by the teacher, young scientists are challenged with locating and...

Young scholars simulate coal mining with chocolate chip cookies and toothpicks. They investigate the costs associated with mining coal.

Students review different units of measurement that would be used to measure height. They compare their height to that of Abraham Lincoln by working with a partner to make a life size tracing of each other and measuring their height.

For this units of measurement worksheet, students learn to use nonstandard units of measurement to measure the items in each problem.

Third graders attempt to determine the height of a telephone pole or tree without climbing to the top.

Students study rectangles. In this math lesson, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.

Math comes alive in this interactive lesson, which prompts students to weigh small classroom-available items (erasers, pencils, rulers) as well as more obscure items that would need to be provided (a basket, a small toy car). Students...

Young scholars estimate heights and lengths of objects. For this measurement lesson, students estimate the length and height of various objects using non-traditional tools of measurement. This lesson also includes a video clip on...

Students measure different body parts and find body matches to different parts. For this measurement lesson plan, students watch the video Catching the Kidnapper where they see how measurement of different body parts can match a...

Students plant sunflower seeds in plastic cups, and once germinated, these are exposed to different conditions of light levels and/or soil moisture contents. Students measure growth of the seedlings every few days using non-standard...

Students use a simple machine (a lever) to launch a plastic frog. students determine who is able to make their frog "jump" the farthest and graph the results.

Pupils are introduced to the concepts of perimter, diameter, circumference and measurements. In groups, they complete two worksheets in which they determine if the ice dimensions make a difference in the way it floats. They discuss...

Pupils improve their time management by watching a video segment of a busy student making a schedule. In this elapsed time and scheduling lesson, students create their own schedules and learn to calculate elapsed time in both digital and...

Students analyze a Cyberchase video to help them understand how to estimate the time it takes to travel distances. For this time lesson, students use ratiosand repeated addition to calculate how much air the characters in...

Students calculate elapsed time in a series of activities. In this calculating time lesson, students view a Cyberchase video that demonstrates how to calculate elapsed time. Activities include counting, subtracting and regrouping in base...

Learners explore earthquakes. In this earthquake lesson, students research earthquakes and identify where they take place. Learners use map skills to track down earthquake locations. There are internet sites suggested in this lesson.

In this estimation worksheet, students estimate how many butterflies are in the picture and have 25 or 55 to choose from. Students estimate and eventually count 25 butterflies.

Students estimate time and amounts when counting is not realistic or feasible. In this estimation lesson, students estimate time or amounts. This lesson includes two video clips on estimation and a worksheet for independent practice.

Students explore equivalence of fractional tenths and decimals. In this Cyberchase decimals lesson, students repair a railroad track that Hacker continuously sabotages.  The tracks are measured in decimal lengths, so the CyberSquad...

Young scholars build parallel circuits, exploring how they function and looking at their unique features. They describe how current changes when batteries are added in parallel or removed from a parallel arrangement, demonstrate the...

Learners discover the focal point in pictures and create their own images using lines and space.  For this art analysis lesson, students create a black dot on a white paper which becomes a focal point for the lines the student will...
