Students create a search and rescue party. In this geometry activity, students simulate a rescue operation using math. They calculate the time, rate and solve word problems related to the real world.

Young scholars calculate distance and proportion of objects. In this algebra lesson, students define proportion and how it is used in math. They solve the problem through guided instruction.

Students create a table of values to graph a line. In this algebra lesson, students identify the slope and intercept of a linear equation. They use a Ticalculator to graph their function.

In this pollution worksheet students study how wind affects air pollution. Students answer questions on wind data and calculate miles per hour.

Third graders measure the speed at which they can walk in order to understand speed and distance traveled. They then research the history of transportation and express data in a class timeline.

High schoolers practice their geography skills. In this geography lesson, students plan a trip in their state that includes calculating mileage, time, and other costs. High schoolers also submit a written trip itinerary.

Students record and examine migration data, and calculate how fast and far a migrating animal travels and what influences its progression. They utilize the Journey North website to follow their migrating animals.

Young scholars in this exercise are introduced to the distinct ways of measuring distance (nautical miles) and speed (knots) at sea, as well as the concepts of latitude and longitude for establishing location.

Students solve and graph linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students collect data and plot it to create a linear function. They identify the domain and range of each line.

In this math worksheet, students state the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Then they evaluate the functions and test them against the theorem.
