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.

Students make chocolate chip cookies. In this cooking lesson, students follow a recipe by doing each step in sequence.

Students explore number relationships by participating in a data collection activity. In this statistics lesson, students participate in a role-play activitiy in which they own a scrap material storefront that must replenish its...

Students build polygons on their geoboards. In this geometry lesson plan, students build and then draw it on paper and label it. Students then switch with a partner to try an make a symmetrical shape.

Students rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.

If shapes have the same area, do they always have the same perimeter? Learners explore the relationship between the area of square units and their perimeters in a hands-on activity. Observations are recorded, and they begin to recognize...

Learners explore the different arrangement of air molecules in high and low air pressure masses. They compare the temperature of high and low pressure masses and discover how a barometer works.

Discover the concept of fractions by using fruit as a model. Scholars discover fractions are part of a whole, similar to the pieces of fruit which are placed in front of them. They then cut up several different types of fruit and discuss...

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...

Have fun creating imaginary creatures with this symmetry lesson plan! Your class will paint one half of their imaginary creature, fold their paper in half, which will result in a symmetrical figure. What a great art project to combine...

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

Could the history of bread really be interesting? Yes, it could! An informational text gives scholars wheat production background from 8,000 years ago, discussing different types of bread and the current industry in Oklahoma. Learners...

Students practice cooking by following recipe instructions.  In this measuring lesson, students read food recipes and collect the materials needed to make one batch, then double the recipe to create twice as much food....

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.

Learners each receive a plastic egg filled with jelly beans. For this Jelly Bean Egg Challenge, students estimate and weight their eggs, they count the number of jelly beans inside their egg, they chart their data and compare their data...

Third graders study partial-products algorithms. For this math lesson, 3rd graders use an algorithm to find the product of factors. Students discuss the relationships between multiplication and division.

Students compare their desired portions with the actual serving size. In this instructional activity on serving size, students compare their desired portion of a given food with the actual serving size listed on the Nutritional Facts label.

Learners describe importance of fractions in everyday life by identifying equivalent fractions and manipulating pizza pieces to show examples of equivalent fractions, and demonstrate knowledge of how whole can be divided into equal-sized...

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...

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...

Upper graders represent multiplication of a two-digit number by a two-digit number as the area of a rectangle with dimensions of the two factors. They find patterns for the number of different base ten blocks in a rectangle representing...

Upper graders examine the concept of probability. They collect data and create a bar graph. They must interpret the data as well. Everyone engages in hands-on games and activities which lead them to predict possible outcomes for a...
