Young scholars 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.

Young scholars form repeating patterns using tessellations. In this tessellations lesson, students identify shapes and illustrate three types of transformations. A website is included with the lesson which provides extension activities...

Sixth graders identify and use area formulas for finding the area of geometric shapes.

Get a handle on equivalent fractions through the use of manipulatives. Using area models, sets, and length manipulatives like fraction strips and Cuisenaire rods, the class will gain a deeper understanding of equivalent fractions....

Young scholars complete a variety of activities surrounding minerals, crystals, and mineralogy. They locate common minerals on a world map, complete a lab in which they identify the chemical and physical properties of various minerals,...

Students, as a final project, draw a picture of their ideal neighborhood on a sunny day. In addition to the sun, their drawings include homes, trees, streets, and selected objects. Each object in their drawing has a written description...

Third graders use fractions to describe part of a set. In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders are introduced to fractions through a book and use pattern blocks to describe a fraction as a part of a set. This lesson includes a scripted...

In this task, young scholars inscribe a regular hexagon inside a circle and compare its area to that of the circle. Aligns with G-CO.D.13.
