Curated OER
Dead Body Math
Students solve the mystery of dead Mr. Potato Head using physics and algebra. They discuss Newton's Law of cooling as it applies to the mystery scenario involving a cooling baked potato as the "victim". They manipulate algebraic...

The Most Important Property of Logarithms
Won't the other properties be sad to learn that they're not the most important? The 11th installment of a 35-part module is essentially a continuation of the previous lesson, using logarithm tables to develop properties. Scholars...
Curated OER
Activity One Teacher Page: Vehicles In Motion
Students identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.
Curated OER
Determining the Relationship Between pH and Hydrogen Ions with Microcomputer Based Lab (MBL) and/or Calculator Based Lab (CBL) Equipment
Learners find the relationship between the variables based on experimental data. They determine mathematical relationship between pH and the amount of hydrogen Ions in solution.
Curated OER
Conjectures and Conclusions
Students draw conclusions and make conjectures given a specific scenario. In this geometry lesson plan, students model real life scenarios using properties of triangles. They model number facts and explain why the outcome is what it is.
Curated OER
Risky Business
Students view a video on AIDS, HIV and the ways in which HIV is spread. They discuss ways to avoid contracting HIV and participate in a simulation that shows the growth of a communicable disease.
Curated OER
Amusement Park Physics
Students get up close and personal with principles of motion. In this physics lesson, students collect and analyze acceleration data on amusement park rides. Students use CBLs to collect data in this lesson.
Curated OER
Geometric Sequences
Students relate pattern and sequences to music. For this geometry lesson, students identify different scales using chromatic scales. They compare the different waves to sine waves and other trigonometric waves.
Curated OER
Looking For Triangles
Students solve problems with triangles. In this geometry lesson, students analyze shapes to find different triangles. They name the shapes created by putting triangles together.
