Learners analyze data using graphs and equations. In this algebra lesson, students calculate the cost of lumber, convert price per foot to price per piece, solve equations using addition and subtraction and give exact answer when needed....

students convert the temperature readings from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. they predict and create a graph of what the graph of altitude (x-axis) versus temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (y-axis) might look like.

This unit covers the basic trigonometry including understanding radians, how to convert between radians and degrees, the area of a circle subtended by an angle, basic properties and graphs of sine, cosine, tangent, and solving...

Students investigate angles converting them from radians to degrees. In this trigonometry lesson, students work with angles and the six different trig ratios. They graph the functions representing each trig functions and identify the...

Students convert between the different metric units after reading the Fairy Tale of King Henry. They measure various candies in a baggy using the width of their index finger. They record results to the nearest index finger width on a...

Learners calcute distances using trigonometry and angle measurements. They estimate the width of the Trig River, measure it and compare their results with their classmates. They collaborate with a group to research and find the results.

In this recognizing map scale ratios worksheet, students use ratios and centimeter measurements to calculate the distances in reality. Students solve 8 problems.

For this map scale worksheet, students examine how to convert measurements on a map. They read 5 examples before completing 8 multi-step conversion problems. They insert the answers in an online version of the worksheet to determine if...

In this time problems and dimensional analysis worksheet, students convert 10 problems from one unit of measurement to another using the process of dimensional analysis. They use conversion factors to solve for the unknown units.

Fourth graders develop an understanding of how engineers use wind to generate electricity. They will build a model anemometer to better understand and measure wind speed. They discover that engineers design wind turbines that generate...

Eighth graders complete a unit of lessons on basic geometry concepts. They participate in a variety of activities, culminating in a project that involves publishing a booklet or a poster that presents the major geometry concepts from the...

In this energy instructional activity, students are given a table of the many measurements of energy. They solve 6 problems converting from one measurement of energy to another using the conversion factors given.

Students properly leap and measure their distance. In this leaping lesson, students practice leaping for accuracy and proper form. Students estimate their leaps and measure with rulers. Students determine distance covered by the entire...

In this exploring metric units of length worksheet, students estimate, measure with paper clips, measure with centimeter and millimeter rulers, and convert centimeters to milliliters. Students write five answers.

In this energy and mass worksheet, learners read about Einstein's formula, E=mc2 and they solve six problems. They convert from different energy units to different mass units using a given formula.

Students learn examples of friction and drag, and suggest ways to reduce the impact of these forces. The equation that governs common frictional forces is introduced, and during a hands-on activity, students experimentally measure a...

Eighth graders participate in an experiment that emulates a sonar signal bouncing off the ocean floor. They determine how the ocean floor is measured by the length of time it takes for the sonar signal to return. They work with a wooden...

In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders build a swimming pool using math to calculate all of the different dimensions. The pool is rectangular in shape and is measured in yards or meters. Students must convert to different...
