Learn the stories a formula holds. An interesting lesson takes a unique approach to teach how to use formulas. Beginning with a formula, learners predict what the variables stand for and then use the formula to make calculations and tell...

Math scholars identify four different rock types in that strata and use this identification and data to construct a two dimensional geologic cross-section. They use data tables to construct a three-dimensional geologic cross-section.

Explore the concept of volume of prisms using an applet to perform the calculations. The link to the interactive applet is embedded into the lesson plan as well as a link to associated data sheets. Get your math class to the computer lab...

Young scholars calculate the slope of the equation In this algebra lesson, students graph coordinate pairs of linear equations and identify the relationship between x and y values and slope.  They differentiate between functions and...

Students model three-dimensional objects using cubes. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the volume and derived the amount mathematically. They use different objects to create two and three-dimensional objects.

Students solve problems with percents, decimals and fractions. In this algebra lesson plan, students convert between fractions, percents and decimals. They estimate their answers and calculate their answer.

Learners solve linear equations using graphs. In this algebra lesson, students depict real life situation using lines and functions. They identify the slope, data and predict graphing behavior.

Young mathematicians explore integers. They review adding integers through engaging in mathematical labs. Each lab station is designed to reflect one of the multiple intelligences. Resources for all activities are provided.

Young scholars create their own "weather" map using data from x-ray sources. They analyze and discuss why it is important to organize data in a fashion in which is easy to read. They compare and contrast different x-ray sources using a...

Watch the damage from a forest fire in this interactive simulation activity that challenges learners to estimate the burn area using different approaches. Learners are given a worksheet to track the different burn patterns and practice...

Students create two prisms out of the same paper. They calcuate the number of centimeter cubes needed to fill each prism. They discover the concept of volume.

Learners create a 3D vector field map of an electric field. In this physics lesson, students measure the voltage inside an aquarium with water. They present their findings and map to class..

Students view a right triangle displayed by the teacher. Students measure legs and the interior angles of the triangle. They look for a pattern or relationship between the legs and angles. Students use pegboards and string to create more...
