Radius, Diameter and Area
Learners identify the radius and diameter of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the volume and area of a cylinder and circle. They relate the circumference of a circle to Pi.
Curated OER
Square Roots
Students differentiate between perfect roots and rational roots. In this algebra lesson, students perform operation using roots. They add, subtract, multiply and divide rational expressions.
Curated OER
Spreadsheet Function Machine
Students create a spreadsheet to analyze functions. In this algebra lesson, students use spreadsheets to find the intersection of systems of equations. They identify the dependent and independent function as it relates to a line.
Curated OER
Division of Monomials
Students relate the division of monomials to multiplication. In this division of monomials instructional activity, students divide monomials by factoring and dividing common factors from the originals. They check their answers by...
Curated OER
Dino Long Legs
Students calculate the stride length of a walking or running animal. They use scale models of dinosaurs to calculate the leg and stride length of the animals.
Curated OER
Geometric Patterns
Students explore geometric patterns. Given three straws of various sizes, students conduct tests, and search for patterns, to determine if the various sizes would form a triangle. They use the Triangle Inequality Theorem to determine...
Curated OER
Perimeter and Area of Similar Figures
Students explore the relationships between similar figures. In this relationships between similar figures lesson, students discuss relationships between perimeter, circumference, area, surface area, and volume of similar figures through...
Curated OER
Surveying New Territory
Students explore recent research linking economic status with student behavior. They design their own studies that investigate how different variables are related to student performance in particular subject areas.
Curated OER
Water and Land 207
Students examine maps of different projections, mathematically calculate distortions, and note the advantages and disadvantages of each map. They study the different maps and transfer the map to graph paper.
Curated OER
Eye From the Sky
Students are introduced to the concept of aerial perspective and scale. Students will use satellite technology to view their neighborhoods and sketch the area surrounding their schools. They will take part in a neighborhood walk to view...
Curated OER
Viewing Tubes
Middle schoolers complete a lab in order to discover if the length of a viewing tube, its diameter, or the distance from an object affect the type of data collected and the resulting graph.
Curated OER
View Tubes
Eighth graders decide if the length of a viewing tube, its diameter, or the distance from an object affects the type of data collected and the resulting graph through a series of experiments.
Curated OER
Investigating the properties of a circle
Young scholars use wax paper to look at different properties of circles such as chords, tangent lines, inscribed angles, and inscribed angles in a semi-circle, as well as finding the center of the circle, and use GSP to investigate...
Curated OER
Composting
Eighth graders collect data from Bottle Biology compost columns and record using Excel spreadsheet.
Curated OER
Dog Lot Math
Students use their problem-solving skills to answer math problems. They determine the cost of feeding sled dogs. They share their answers with the class.
Curated OER
Calculating the shortest distance between two points
Eighth graders find the length of the third side of a right triangle.
Curated OER
Beach Zonation
Students identify and separate the different zones of the beach by observation. They investigate beach zonation by gathering and comparing sand samples gathered from different areas of the beach.
Curated OER
Plotting Rectangular Coordinates
Students practice plotting coordinates on a flat surface or plane. The coordinates can be identified and labeled. An interesting variation of this process is made in the lesson plan when the position of holes made by thrown darts are...
