Students walk around numbered tiles on the floor as music plays. When the music stops, a number is drawn and if they are on that number they win reward (Cheetos or other snack.)

Middle and high schoolers re-create a magazine photo or other picture and make it into a drawing using pixels. This fun art project should be a hit with your charges! The materials needed to implement the lesson should be easy to get,...

Students create tessellation drawings using repeating geometric shapes.

Discover the difference between area and perimeter. Learners are grouped in twos and threes and each group has one advanced/gifted learner to serve as the peer helper. They receive manipulatives to help them determine the area and...

In this finding area worksheet, learners sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems using the provided diagram.

First graders are introduced to pentominoes in this lesson plan. Using the Internet, they match pentominoes with the same shape and use a grid sheet to make their own. They are read books by their teacher and they identify the...

Young scholars solve train-scheduling word problems using a four-step problem solving model. In this problem solving lesson, students work in groups to a four-step procedure about a train scheduling dilemma.

Students identify patterns and compute formulas to solve the problems. In this algebra lesson plan, students come up with a rule given a pattern, and analyze the relationship between data and graphs.

Students calculate probability. In this lesson on probability, students use given data to calculate to chances of a given event occurring. Many of the calculations in this lesson are applicable to daily life.

In this geometry learning exercise, 10th graders are given real world problems dealing with are and perimeter. They solve using the formulas for area and perimeter. There are 3 problems.

Eighth graders investigate the concepts and combining them into polynomials. The teacher uses direct instruction for delivery. They can use Algebra to make this lesson hands-on for the benefit of kinesthetic learners.

Students create "Mosaic Hearts" in this adaptable art lesson using some old magazines, construction paper, and glue. The lesson includes examples of finished hearts and a materials list. Ideal for a Valentine's Day activity!

Second graders draw a model using correctly formed geometric shapes. In this geometric shapes lesson, 2nd graders notice geometric shapes in the world around them and accurately draw these shapes.

Fourth graders build a balloon hovercraft, take direct measurements, answer critical questions, and make calculations using the data gathered in order to see the concept of acceleration as a change in velocity. They use a worksheet...

Students examine how the hexagon shape can be a building block for quilt patterns. They view images of quilts, discuss symmetry and design patterns, and create and name an original quilt design.

Students participate in a variety of activities to understand statistics. They collect and interpret data. Also students distinguish the difference between a population and a sample. They make inferences and create arguments using data.

Students make a variety of sizes of squares using square color tiles. With the squares, the students discover patterns and make prediction. They explore and understand the concept of square numbers.
