Students use one of four absorbent products to separate as much of the oil and water mixture they are able to do. The purpose of this task is for students to collect and analyze data for the purpose of determining which absorbent is...

Students use triangles to find the length and slope of each side. After connecting the vertices, they add points based on their specific instructions. They use the Pythagorean Theorem to complete a worksheet to end the lesson.

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...

Students measure the mass, volume, length and area of various objects. They are assigned a letter. The task is assesses students' abilities to make simple observations and measurements.

High schoolers circulate through stations to determine the proper instrument to make a certain type of measurement. They must make measurements of mass, volume, length, area, electrical current, temperature and force.

Second graders count by 2's to get to 100. For this counting lesson plan, 2nd graders use the program Kid Pix to create stamps two at a time until they get to 100.

Young scholars explore the concept of triangles.  In this triangles lesson, students are to propose a plan for a ramp at their school.  Young scholars use the Pythagorean Theorem and trigonometry to determine the length,...

Lengthen learners' long division skills with this single-page handout. They must use problem solving skills to find the quotient when a four-digit number is divided by one digit. This is a nice assignment for early in the process of...

Eighth graders observe two types of interactions in a sealed plastic bag. One bag contains baking soda and water, and the other baking soda and vinegar. They determine what evidence indicates that a chemical change is occurring.

Students recognize similarities and generalize patterns. In this math and technology lesson plan, students develop an understanding of number patterning by grouping stamps and counting by 10s.

Students view and discuss a video about the use of pattern block shapes to form pictures. They, in groups, form garden and quilt designs using pattern blocks and then decorate the room with their art.

Young scholars examine the effects of heating on various crystals. They answer questions in the observation category which assess their ability to use a variety of senses to observe data in a certain way- a scientific way.

Students demonstrate the elements of design by creating a digital photography portfolio of photos taken in and arond the scool. The edit photos using Photoshope to emphasize the element of desing in each phot.

Students develop procedures to explore the behavior of fish.  In this scientific experiment lesson students from a hypothesis, write a question, identify different variables and controls in their experiment. 

Twenty-four problems fit neatly on this division worksheet. For each, youngsters must divide a three-digit number by a single digit. There will be remainders in all of the problems, so make sure not to assign it until you have thoroughly...

Students identify different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students name polygons using the number of sides. They calculate distance and slopes using the correct formula.
