Boat ramps move with waves and changes in water level. Scholars decide on the proper length for a ramp so the angle connecting both sides is appropriate. They visualize the situation and use a simulation to view the results with their...

Viewers learn how to identify and perform a variety of transformations with a video that provides seven items on transformations. Pupils demonstrate their understanding of dilations, reflections, rotations, and translations. The video...

What do animated videos have to do with mathematics? Using operations of complex numbers and their representations on the complex plane, high schoolers observe how mathematics could be used to move animations. The lesson plan...

How can an object as heavy as an airplane fly? Turns out the answer is quadratic! Your classes explore the Bernoulli Effect through an interactive graph representation. As a plane increases in speed, the lift force also increases. Young...

Find out if vectors are equal in the classroom. Pupils use the interactive to create vectors showing the movements boys perform in rearranging classroom furniture. The scholars determine which boy moved furniture the farthest, or if they...

Get straight answers on a curved grid. An interactive has learners apply the Law of Cosines to find the distance between two points on the polar coordinate plane. The pupils use the radii lengths and the angle between the two radii...

The tension of the 236 strings in a grand piano exert a combined force of 20 tons on the cast iron frame. The presentation includes topics such as work, forms of energy, conservation of energy, gravitational and elastic potential energy,...

Circle games, energetic games, calming games, exit games. Whether used as ice breakers, warm ups, or exit strategies, or used in drama classes or content areas, the 28 games detailed in this packet deserve a spot in your curriculum...

Reinforce math vocabulary with a set of flash cards. Forty-eight cards offer boldly printed words, and their corresponding definition alongside an example with labels. Terms include absolute value, inverse operations, slope, and more! 

What could be more fun than two birthday parties in one day? Compare and contrast two parties with a short reading passage and a graphic organizer that focuses on character, setting, and events from the story.

Have you ever wanted to travel the world? Take a virtual trip with a geography activity that uses longitude and latitude, the position of the sun, an astronomy app, and a classroom globe.

How are forces and motion important to a swing set? Scholars explore the concepts of force and motion using swing sets. In preparation for their own STEM design project, individuals take surveys and data from peers, complete labs on...

Individuals learn to divide and conquer complex numbers with a little help from moduli and conjugates. In the second lesson on complex number division, the class takes a closer look at the numerator and denominator of the multiplicative...

Students use an inclined plane to move a heavy load.

Young scholars identify the axes, quadrants of the coordinate plane and plot points on the plane. They take notes on the coordinate plane. Students and teacher go over examples of the coordinate plane. As an independent practice young...

Young scholars plot points on a coordinate grid.  In this coordinate plane instructional activity, students use a coordinate grid to locate the perimeter points of pictures, identify quadrants and use the coordinate points to draw...

Students examine the four quadrants of Cartesian coordinate plane. They play maze games and coordinate games to discover how to read and plot points on the plane. Students plot points on the coordinate plane and examine the ratio of...

In this coordinate plane activity, 10th graders solve and graph 21 different problems that include various pairs of points. First, they write the ordered pair for each point on the first grid. Then, students name the quadrant in which...

In this museum student guide worksheet, students make a mini-book about simple machines to be used during a visit to the Museum of Science and Industry. They locate the exhibits that demonstrate the wedge, inclined plane, screw, lever,...

Students describe how inclined plane and pulleys make work easier. In this physics lesson, students calculate work done and mechanical advantage of both simple machines. They collect data from the experiment and construct graphs.

Students study how to graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. After a teacher demonstration, students work together to complete problems. They explain and share their answers. As an activity, they solve a mystery story about the...

In this naming points on the coordinate plane worksheet, students name 6 coordinates off of 6 graphs.  Students name the x and y-coordinates of 6 different points in all four quadrants.

Students experiment to see how various objects roll down ramps. In this ramp lesson, students observe weight, size, and material of objects.  Students compare speeds by using a second ramp.  

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the number of planes that can pass through a given point and are perpendicular to a given line.  The one page worksheet contains one multiple choice question.  Answer is...
