Students solve time zone problems and chart travel around the world.  In this time zone instructional activity, students learn about the history of time zones and view a time zone map.  Students use the time zone map to solve...

Students explore world geography by creating a model in class. In this tectonic plate lesson, students identify diagrams which discuss the tectonic plates in New Zealand and how they affect everyday life. Students utilize cardboard,...

Fourth graders distinguish between analog and digital clocks and read time from both types. In this clock reading lesson plan, 4th graders discuss the types of clocks and the time zones. Students find times in specific time zones....

Students examine the changing states of water. For this solid, liquid, gas lesson, students discover that water changes when heated or cooled. Students make predictions and then use the interactive whiteboard to "heat and...

Students explore how to multiply and divide by 10, 100, and 1000. In this computation instructional activity, students participate in an online activity using the interactive whiteboard. Students generate sums by using dice.

Students recognize that living things need food and water.  In this health and growth lesson, students identify foods that are better for health and growth. Students sing a song and complete a worksheet. Students understand that...

Students participate in two minute drills throwing and catching a football. In this football instructional activity, the students are divided into teams and pass the football at various distances. The students may rotate their team roles...

Pupils investigate picture symbols. For this symbols lesson, students define symbols and discuss symbols that they see in everyday life. Pupils identify symbols on maps by using post-it notes.

Students find latitude and longitude on a map or atlas. They create maps with a cruise route. They practice plotting locations given latitiude and longitude.

Learners understand that the energy required to break a piece of wood can be computed by determining the force and distance (work) that snaps it. Kinetic energy is the system can be computed if its mass and velocity are known.

Students are told that any object moving through a fluid (air, water, molasses, etc) experience a drag force which oppose the motion. They are given the summarized version of drag which is proportional to the square of the velocity....

Students discuss importance of reading and understanding traffic signs then list the common road signs. They complete "Traffic Signs" activity sheet and Compare and contrast traffic signs and driving practices in the U.S. with traffic...

Students participate in physical activities coordinating to divisions on a map.

Students identify safe driving practices and discuss new vocabulary to go along with it. They compare and contrast safe driving practices in the U.S. and the students' native countries.

Students are reintroduced to the letter "Z" and review its sound. In this letter "Z" lesson, students review words that begin with the letter "Z" then think of other words that begin with the letter "Z" while they practice their...

Students are introduced to drag. Then they summarize drag by saying that the drag is proportional to the square of the velocity. Students then solve problems an example of such a problem: Explain why swimming underwater is faster than...

Students are able to explain why football running backs benefit from having a lower center of gravity when opponents are trying to tackle them. They explain why racing cars are designed to have a low center of gravity. Students explain...

Learners experiment with the amount of work required to break a piece of wood by hanging masses from a string attached to a thin dowel of wood. At the completion of activity, students calculate if a fast moving hand could break the dowel.

Learners complete online activities to identify coins and their given values. In this coin values lesson, students identify pictures of various coins and write their values. Learners may then complete other activities based on a varying...

Students investigate and apply properties of math. In this algebra and physics lesson, students define important vocabulary words to create a basic understanding of keywords. They perform experiments using concepts of electricity and math.
