Students take a reading with a compass and use the compass to reach multiple checkpoints in a scavenger hunt activity.

Students use the Internet to learn about transformations and tessellations.  In this geometry lesson, students use the Internet to define the meaning of reflections, translations, rotations, glide reflection and symmetry. ...

Students investigate rainforests. In this rainforest lesson, students brainstorm on a KWL chart about what they already know about the rain forest. Students are shown pictures of the rain forest and describe what they see in the photos....

This PowerPoint addresses fifth grade math concepts, focusing mostly on geometry. The interactive math review game is in a "Jeopardy" style format and enables students to revisit the topics in geometry such as polygons, quadrilaterals...

Students become familiar with the causes for formation of shadows. They create shadows, compare the size and shape of the shadow with the actual object, engage in shadow play theatre, and discover what happens to shadows when there is...

Students grow salt crystals by making a saturated solution of table salt and let the solution sit around and evaporate.

Students are able to observe how environmental changes (antibiotics) affect the growth of E. coli. They are able to use the "F" test for statistical analysis. Students can explain that E. coli is a common rod-shaped intestinal...

Learners perform activities to explore how their arm works and what muscles are involved. They view animated comparisons of human and robotic arms. Students create a model of the human arm.

Learners explore how changing an angle in a triangle changes the ratio of the sides. They also explore how changing the sides can make changes to an angle in a triangle. Finally, they determine how two different pairs of sides, in the...

In this area learning exercise, learners read and problem solve the area of 8 triangles. Students show their work on each problem on the learning exercise.

Fourth graders investigate where Oklahoma's variety of crops are harvested, and grown their own plants. A printable map and crop information guide are provided.

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

In this geography of Russia worksheet, students read a 4 page article about the geography of Russia and complete short answer questions and assignments based on the article. Students complete 6 assignments.

In this geometry lesson, 10th graders fold a dollar bill to make a tetrahedron. They analyze geometric shapes and apply it hands on.

In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders solve quadratic functions using the quadratic formula. They identify the negative roots using complex roots. There is an answer key with this problem.

Students explore their physical abilities by participating in a sport. In this volleyball lesson, students discover the different techniques and skills needed to play volleyball by moving from different stations with small groups....

Students address a major misconception in astronomy, the understanding of scale. The lesson is designed to introduce students to both celestial coordinates and to the first rung on the distance determination ladder, parallax.

Students identify triangles in the real world and construct their own triangle using drinking straws. They explore abstract triangles and find additional geometric shapes such as trapezoids. Students discuss similar shapes and examine...

There are five shapes for scholars to identify: rectangle, circle, square, trapezoid, and triangle. Although there isn't much here, consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Ask kids to verbalize attributes of each...

Students study the variables that affect the Earth's albedo.  In this environmental data analysis lesson students interpret and graph information and calculate changes. 

Looking for a good worksheet to help teach about the planet Venus? This worksheet is for you! An excellent photograph of Venus accompanies three paragraphs of text. Learners answer five multiple choice questions based on what they've...

Your learners practice the foundations of measuring two-dimensional angles. As well as the explanation of how to measure angles and their classifications, learners have plenty of practice problems on this worksheet.

Have you ever wondered how circles and angles relate to each other? Read a passage about right angles, acute angles, and obtuse angles, and answer reading comprehension questions about the information you learn. 

Turn your class upside down as they explore the reciprocal functions. Scholars use the unit circle to develop the definition of the secant and cosecant functions. They analyze the domain, range, and end behavior of each function.
