Curated OER
Compound Locus
Learners investigate circles and compound locus. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the distance from a point to a line. They use Cabri software to create lines and circles.
Curated OER
Geo Jammin By Design: Coordinated
Learners watch the teacher draw on the chalkboard and try to determine the form being drawn. They use questions to determine Quadrant #1 of a coordinate plane.
Curated OER
Physics Rewind
Eighth graders differentiate speed and velocity. In this physics lesson plan, 8th graders explain Newton's laws of motion. They calculate speed using a mathematical formula.
Curated OER
Mine Is! Is Yours?
First graders engage in a lesson which teaches the concept of symmetry through the use of letters in the student's name. They use a piece of yarn to see if they can make symmetrical pieces out of their own names.
Curated OER
Physical Pendulum Lab
Students calculate the moment of inertia of a disc. In this physics lesson plan, students differentiate the two methods used in finding the inertia. They construct their own pendulum for the lab.
Curated OER
Assignment: Creating within a Limited Format
Students follow set of guidelines to create a picture of an apple with a stem and leaf. They think about whether they are more or less creative when working within a set of rules.
Curated OER
Data Days
Sixth graders practice collecting, organizing and displaying data. They create circle, bar, line and picto graphs. They analyze data in small and large sample groups.
Curated OER
Vectors
Students differentiate distance and displacement. In this physics lesson plan, students use formulas to calculate for displacement. They draw vectors using the grid.
