How Tall is that Tree?
Students apply their math skills to develop an accurate estimate of the height of a tall tree. Three different methods are outlined. All grade levels should be able to perform the shadow method and the proportional method.
Curated OER
Scaling Our School
Fourth graders practice estimating the length and height of buildings at their school. They then compare their estimations with the actual heights or lengths. Each student then builds a scale model using ratio to translate the "real"...
Curated OER
Powerful Polygons
Learners scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...
Curated OER
Reflection: Student Worksheet
In this math worksheet, students will work independently to trace a stencil on an x-axis. Then students will follow a procedure to trace the image on the horizontal line of reflection. Students will observe that reflections and rotations...
Curated OER
Introducing Powers and Models
Students construct two dimensional models to illustrate squared numbers. In this geometry lesson, students use graph paper and an x/y axis to build squares exponentially. Students identify powers and relationships between various figures...
Curated OER
Triangle Review
In this triangle worksheet, students draw the type of triangles described, 4 total. Space is provided for student's drawings. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
Curated OER
Red October
Fourth graders follow directions given in bearings. They invent their own maps using them and use a protractor to help them with their designs. Students
produce their own maps with instructions for navigating the maps. The channels...
Curated OER
Noon Project Revisited
Students, just like Eratosthenes, try to use math to calculate immeasurable objects. Teachers need to try out the calculations before having your class do them. They should take notes to be included with their own calculations and drawings.
Curated OER
Area Adventure
Learners calculate the area of figures using the formula: length x width = area. They solve area problems using paper squares, geoboards, and real-world problems.
Curated OER
Leveled Problem Solving Triangles
In this triangles practice worksheet, learners sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.
Curated OER
Car Maze competition
Learners use graphs to calibrate an RCX car. They must then program the car to traverse a maze using their calibrations
Curated OER
The Home Stretch
Students read the novel Stone Fox by John Reynold Gardiner. Using Lego RCX units, students build and program sleds to re-enact the "home stretch" of the National Dog Sled Race.
Curated OER
Congruent Containers
In this congruency instructional activity, students find congruency in everyday packaging on everyday items and answer questions about them. Students answer 4 questions.
Curated OER
Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree…You Might Become Famous
Students explore Newton's laws using CEENBoTs. In this physics lesson, students collect data and create tables and graphs. They calculate speed, acceleration and forces using mathematical formulas.
Curated OER
Reflection
Students examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.
Curated OER
Scalene Triangles
In this scalene triangles activity, students look over and analyze 11 triangles and determine which ones are scalene triangles.
Curated OER
Data-gathering Activities Relating to Trees in Their Environment
Students gather data relating to trees in their environment. In this biology lesson plan, students determine heights of trees and their ages. A canopy map will indicate optimal growing areas for the tree.
Curated OER
Structures and Shapes
Students make jewelry using different shapes from magazines, tissue paper, cardboard, and other materials. In this making jewelry lesson plan, students complete this hands on activity to discuss how shapes are used.
Curated OER
Thinking!!!
In this mathematical concepts worksheet, students complete math word problems dealing with fractions, multiplication, probability, and more. Students complete 8 problems total.
Curated OER
Wings and Othe Things
Students work in groups that are engaged in different activities at different times. They watch the video "Madagascar" and collect data pertaining to the Fish Eagle's arm spam. They work together to perform mathematical computations...
Curated OER
Forces Applied to an Object
Fourth graders predict, observe, and compare what happens when a force is applied to an object. In this forces lesson, 4th graders complete a 'swinging hammer' activity to learn about forces and motion.
