Protons and neutrons and electrons, oh my! Physical science scholars get hands-on with interactive atomic modeling. Starting with a simple helium atom, participants create and name ions, then build isotopes. Questions throughout the...

How much negative feedback does a body get daily? The interactive walks through one negative feedback loop, increasing body temperature. Then it challenges scholars to relate this to mechanical feedback loops and disorders that prevent...

What do vertical lines have to do with functions? Individuals slide a vertical line through four different graphs. They use that vertical line test to determine if the graphs represent functions.

Rubber ducky, you're the one ... to help solve equations. Young mathematicians use an interactive to set up a situation involving rubber ducks. This helps users visualize and solve an equation with variables on both sides.

The itsy, bitsy spider went up the virtual wall. An interactive allows users to change the angles in a spider web. They must attend to supplementary angles as they answer challenge questions throughout the interactive.

Time is on your side. Scholars plot three points on number lines with different time units to represent the time it takes three people to bake pies. They determine the fastest baker and the difference in times between the bakers.

Raise the bar for hockey fans. Using data about favorite hockey teams, pupils build a bar graph. They use the information from the graph to make comparisons and solve one- and two-step problems.

Time to put those mental math strategies into play with an interactive that has learners thinking about how many candies three friends get altogether.

How is a mean affected by changes in data? A well-designed animation allows individuals to manipulate data and watch the effect on the mean. Challenge questions help guide users to conclusions about outliers and skew within data.

Limits are made easy through graphs and tables. An easy-to-use interactive lets users change a function on a coordinate plane. They relate graphs and tables to the limit at a specific value.

Roll a log into an equivalent expression. Given four expanded logarithmic expressions, pupils write an equivalent condensed expression. They identify which properties allows for the simplification.

Five questions—multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion—make up an interactive that focuses on decimals as mixed numbers. Moveable blocks assist scholars in finding solutions. 

Nine questions make up an interactive that challenges scholars to identify new prices after discounts. Question types include fill in the blank and multiple choice. A fully-functional tool assists participants in solving word problems....

Be a hero, not a zero! Help your classes understand how to solve quadratic equations with the zero product property using an animated simulation. Using the controls, scholars manipulate the zeros and watch as the function and its factors...

Once you start looking, angles appear everywhere in our daily lives. A creative lesson has learners use the angles created by a fuel gauge to practice the Angle Addition Postulate. They see how changing the angle parts does not...

Polly want a polygon? Young mathematicians sort shapes using an interactive. They classify the shapes as convex polygons, concave polygons, or not polygons.

Middle and high schoolers identify and analyze fractals and research information using the Internet to locate information about them. They look at fractals in relation to nature and other real world situations. Pupils create several...

Students use a dictionary to gather appropriate information for writing simple definitions. They recognize prefixes that relate to numbers, such as mono-, bi-, and tri-. Pupils use their creative abilities to extrapolate new words to...

Students explore lines, rays, line segments, and planes. In this math lesson, students discuss the math concepts and direct their instructor in graphing functions. Students collaborate in graphing additional functions.

With a creative premise involving a basketball competition, this game could be used to review basic science, grammar and math concepts in a fourth or fifth grade classroom. It is a fun idea, and a motivating way to review information....

Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.

Fourth graders recognize and classify geometric figures. For this geometry lesson, 4th graders read the books Shape Up and The Greedy Triangle and prepare a short report on the shapes mentioned in the text. Students compare the...

Everyone loves math when it includes food! This lesson plan tries to take the notion of combining like terms in algebra and comparing it to sorting apples and oranges. It takes a step-by-step approach to helping young scholars understand...

Students solve problems using fractals. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of fractals. They find patterns in their surroundings and relate it to the real world and math.
