Use this volume of solids lesson to have learners find the surface area and volume of cylinders, pyramids, and prisms. They place cubes inside three-dimensional figures to determine the volume. Worksheets and answers are provided.

Students solve problems using dimensional analysis. In this chemistry lesson plan, students choose a problem and present it in class. The rest of the class will evaluate the solved problem on the board.

Communication is the key. A presentation provides 25 sample items for Claim 3, Communicating Reasoning, for the Smarter Balanced High School Math assessment. Items require pupils to answer the question and provide logical reasoning to...

Young scholars examine their classroom to find examples of various types of shapes. After identifying and describing the various shapes, they draw as many as they can on a piece of paper. They organize them into an image based on their...

Students solve area problems.  In this area, circumference, and perimeter lesson, students solve area and perimeter problems using standard and metric units of measure.  They identify the best customary unit of measure for a...

Students investigate planning an activity and getting it done on time. In this algebra lesson plan, students define vocabulary words related quadratic equations, including the vertex and intervals. They figure a good way to color graphs...

Students calculate the slope of the equation In this algebra lesson plan, 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.

Young scholars 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.

Students 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.

Students explore the concepts of length, perimeter, and area. In this math instructional activity, students use Shape Explorer to practice finding length, perimeter, and area.

Students compare and contrast the English and Metric system. In this chemistry lesson, students demonstrate how to convert English to metric and vise versa. They solve problems following the rules of significant figures.

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

Students utilize LEGO's to replace cards for a game that replicates "Go Fish".
