There are 12 symbols on this large grid, and scholars must record a location for each. They use the coordinate pair system which is made easier because every symbol is directly inside a square. Use this to introduce coordinate pair...

A guide to recreating all the phases of the moon out of Oreo cookies with varying amounts of cream filling.  Although a simple activity, there are more involved questions requiring moon cycle and phase comprehension and leading...

Middle schoolers construct polygons by plotting points on a coordinate plane. Pupils connect the points and identify which polygons they have drawn. They will need graph paper to carry out the assigned activities. A vocabulary list,...

Space scientists use water displacement to determine the mass of a cubic centimeter mini meteorite, and then use it as a small-scale representative of an asteroid. They figure out the orbital velocity of an asteroid. Then they use a...

Students build and test structures that can best withstand earthquakes. They create their structures from playdough, cornstarch, grape-nuts and popsicle sticks and place their structures on a "shake table."

Water, one of the basic needs of humans, is found in all three states of matter on Earth; no other planet—that we know of—possesses this quality. Here is a unit that allows learners to explore through experimentation what it...

Eighth graders identify figurative language and poetry in this literary analysis lesson. Using Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll and a YouTube video for "The Walrus and the Carpenter," young readers complete a literary device...

Somewhat of a puzzle, this problem gets pre-algebra preteens to write an expression representing a seating chart using triangle-shaped tables. This single task is an applicable lesson for meeting sixth grade Common Core math standards....

Students observe cloud formations during a trip outdoors prior to reading Tomie dePaola's , "The Cloud Book." Using cotton, they make models of the four main cloud shapes and mount them on blue construction paper. As an ongoing project,...

Students look around classroom and identify any patterns they see, describe patterns and explain why they are patterns, use pencil to demonstrate arithmetic patterns by tapping, practice predicting patterns by using Function Box, and...

In this geometry worksheet, students choose the multiple choice answer to 15 questions involving several different elements of geometry.

In this science worksheet, students apply science basic knowledge of chemistry to the puzzles that are listed for the four parts of the sheet while focusing upon the identification of a metalloid.

In this patterns worksheet, students complete multiple choice questions about what shape or number comes next in the pattern. Students complete 10 questions.

In this online interactive math skills activity, students solve 10 multiple choice math problems regarding geometry skills. Students may view the correct answers.

For this patterns worksheet, students analyze a series of geometric shapes and determine the pattern. Students use numbers or letters to represent each pattern.

In this angles worksheet, students complete multiple choice questions about the shape and number of angles. Students complete 10 questions total.

In this Valentine's worksheet, students read and analyze a short article about Valentine's Day and then answer five questions over the content of what they've read.

Students classify polygons by name and shape. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the lateral surface of each conic. They differentiate between cones, cylinders and spheres.

Students build replicas about nature and sports. In this geometry lesson plan, students build 3D replicas of nature and sports objects in teams.

Third graders explore the concept of symmetry using geometric shapes, capital letters and various other shapes. They fold shapes to show symmetry, draw lines of symmetry and create symmetrical designs.

Students investigate spheres through sketches. In this geometry lesson, students sketch two and three dimensional shapes creating nets. They find and differentiate between the nets for prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders and spheres.

Young scholars explore the relationship of angles as it relates to 2 and 3-D shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, students differentiate between acute, obtuse, right, alternate interior, exterior and adjacent angles. They...

Learners reate an original crayon resist painting of a bugs life. They Choose 1 or more bugs to draw in composition and simplify objects into simple shapes, forms, and patterns students draw objects with spontaneity and imagination.

Students view artwork that contains scenes of the sky, and create images of the sky that express their moods and feelings.
