Learners collect and analyze data about wind speed. They build a Lego wind sail and measure the wind speed with a rotation sensor. They use software to analyze the data.

Learners are introduced to both celestial coordinates and to the first rung on the distance determination ladder. They convert spherical coordinates to Cartesian coordinates to construct a three dimensional model of a constellation...

Second graders Make, name and describe, using their own language and the language of geometry, everyday shapes and objects. They create and talk about geometric patterns which repeat (show translation), or which have rotational or...

Students investigate the integrity and strength of different types of food wraps. They test the wraps and create a graphic organizer for the data. Once it is organized then a lab report can be written. The activity contains background...

Students identify the main question behind their paper and narrow the focus and purpose of their paper. They view their topic from a variety of perspectives and determine their own interest in a particular aspect of a topic. They...

Although this was written to accompany a specific textbook, the information can illustrate wave motion for any advanced level physics course. The slides are simple, use plain but colorful fonts, and include diagrams and pictures to...

Tenth graders construct geometric figures using compasses and protractors.

In this space science worksheet, students find the answers to the research questions that focus on the stars, planets, and constellations.

Students examine and identify polyhedron shapes on a math website. They write journal reflections about two- and three-dimensional shapes, and transform a square into a pinwheel.

Students collect and analyze data relating to seasonal changes. They view a video, research web sites and build a sundial to collect their data.

Students use NASA satellite data to correlate cloud cover over Africa to the solar declination.

In this algebra worksheet, students identify different transformations based on the x and y axis reflections. They use vectors to do their translations. There are 28 questions.

In this graphing lines activity, students graph 28 lines given various data.  Students graph lines given two points, a point and slope, and a line perpendicular or parallel to a point.

Students demonstrate how the moon affects the tides, a neap tide, and spring tides by using their bodies as models. After students observe the model they created, they draw and label the diagram on a provided worksheet. They then log...

Students talk about mathematical language.  In this talking about your name lesson plan, students use the letters in their own name to review math vocabulary and concepts.  

Students design a calendar that displays time on Mars. They explore the differences between time on Earth and time on Mars while making the calendar.

Students discover three lettered postulates that prove triangles congruent.

Twelfth graders solve problems involving linear and angular speed. Using information about a compact disc, they solve the problem using multiple rates and conversion factors. Students also solve additional problems involving bicycle...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve a word problem sing algebraic equations. They figure put how to unlock a combination lock. There is an answer key with this problem.

Students are asked to visualize three-dimensional figures and apply this visualization to problem solving.

Students demonstrate similarities and differences in animal forms, including humans.They investigate geometric relationships within those forms by building an animal using Zome System elements.

In this math instructional activity, students practice using the appropriate formula developed to solve the word problems. They find the correct operation to find the answer to each.

Young scholars investigate the symmetry that is found in nature. They view shapes and patterns in nature while looking at images. Students look for tessellations while obtaining photographs with a digital camera. The information is used...
