In this secondary mathematics activity, learners solve problems similar to those on the SAT test.  The interactive activity is one page and contains ten problems.  Answers are not provided. 

First graders identify basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) and describes the attributes of each. They use magazines to find examples of each shape, and then make a collage.

Students classify objects that are similar by one attribute. They explain what a pattern is and how to make a pattern using objects.

In this language arts worksheet, students learn to form examples of lower case letters of the alphabet. Students write each letter under the sample in an unlined oval.

Second graders construct a model of an ant, exemplifying that ants are insects. Students gather data create a pictograph chart to show ant food preferences. Also, 2nd graders access the Internet to explore ant eating habits.

Students work together to create a 3D coordinate system. They plot points that are given to them and asked to find these points in space. They discover how engineers use coordinates in their careers.

Students examine several types of plants. In this plant lesson, students complete activities that require them to identify types of plants, chart plant anatomy, and explain plant propagation.

Seventh graders use a pond to explore macroinvertebrates and other organisms. They use a dichotomous key to classify the organisms and maintain a journal recording their findings.

Drawings and discussion on the properties of the cube, with lots of links to related pages. With this page you can find how to make a cube out of tetrahedron. [Requires Java.]

A guide to support parents as they work with their students with area, surface area, and volume problems.

Brush up on your math skills relating to surface area then try some practice problems to test your understanding.

A complete reference guide to the surface area of a cube. It provides definitions, examples, and interactive activities that enhance further explanation. Includes links to related topics.

This page brings you to a table of contents of three-dimensional figures. Selecting a figure will bring you to a page defining and illustrating the figure with applicable formulas listed.

In this exercise, students practice figuring volume with unit cubes. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.
