Histograms are likely to give birth to a variety of conclusions. Given the likelihood a woman is to give birth after a certain number of weeks, pupils create a histogram. The scholars use the histogram to analyze the data and answer...

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

Groundwater is an essential natural resource, not to mention a fascinating topic to study. Here is a series of twelve amazing lessons on the water source and how we use it in our daily lives. Concepts require higher math and physics...

What information can your class determine if they know the number of people attending movie showings? Using the information about the number of people at each screening, learners develop a frequency table. The pupils analyze the type of...

Math scholars identify four different rock types in that strata and use this identification and data to construct a two dimensional geologic cross-section. They use data tables to construct a three-dimensional geologic cross-section.

Learners calculate the limits of functions. In this calculus instructional activity, young scholars find the left and right handed limits of different functions. They use the Ti Navigator to drag the function around as they study limits.

Factoring polynomials is an important skill through high school math and beyond. It provides instructions for the basic types of factoring and a practice set with an answer key.

Students explore features to consider when designing a scientific study. In this science research lesson, students examine different methods of data collection and consider which method would be appropriate for determining how many types...

Students review basic operations and use them to solve word problems. In this word problems instructional activity, students review basic mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Students then...

An inventive lesson shows learners how to collect, organize, and present mathematical data. They access websites which lead them through a variety of ways to engage in data collection. They get to design and create graphs, and present...

Learners can practice high frequency sight words, vocabulary words, spelling words, or math facts with materials made at this flash card printer site. Teachers can type in words or math equations that they want their charges to learn and...

Work through a sequence in discovering number patterns. Using the interactive, pupils explore arithmetic and geometric sequences by setting the initial value and the common difference or ratio. Learners distinguish between the two types...

So many times the characteristics of triangles are presented as a vocabulary-type of lesson, but in this activity they are key to unraveling a proof. A unique attack on proving that an inscribed angle that subtends a diameter must be a...

Not everything that's one-sided is bad. A slider interactive aids learners in investigating one-sided limits from graphs. A set of challenge questions assesses their understanding of the relationship between one- and two-sided limits.

This is a fun way to incorporate physical activity with a basic math skill. You call out a number and a movement then your Kindergarteners perform that movement while they count that number. This is a fantastic way to review counting...

A General Certificate of Secondary Education math review has class members make basic constructions. Using a protractor and a ruler along with a compass, pupils develop drawings of triangles with given measurements. Scholars use their...

Compare the different types of insurance with high schoolers, and have them learn the benefits and costs of medical, auto, and home policies. The resource addresses what makes some insurances more costly and what teenagers can do to...
