In this February facts Internet hunt instructional activity, students use search engines and linked websites to answer 30 questions about topics from all subject areas.  This page has numerous links to helpful web resources.

Students construct 3-dimensional structures from 2-dimensional paper. They design and compile their structures to resemble a neighborhood community.

Students use chips to represent units to show examples and non examples of fractions. In this fraction lesson plan, students show what chips can be used for different fraction scenarios.

Learners identify three-dimensional forms in various buildings and construct three-dimensional paper forms.

Pupils explore how the Michigan Avenue Bridge works and the importance of it being perfectly balanced. They make a model of a bascule trunnion bridge and balance their bridge by calculating the weight of the necessary counter weight.

In this subtraction with counters worksheet, students use counters to create 3 of their own subtraction sentences. Then they answer a multiple choice test prep question.

Students discover the basic concept of measuring.  In this mathematics relationship instructional activity, students identify length, volume, weight, time and area in order to measure different units.  Students measure items...

Students examine how engineering and design make cities more livable and efficient. They study different types of walkways including elevated and underground walks, and where and why they would be used. They design their own walkway...

This lesson uses stacking cubes as a way to graph precipitation data, comparing the precipitation averages and seasonal patterns for several locations. Variations on the lesson can accommodate various ages and ability levels. Students...

This problem is a quadratic function example where students analyze how many cubes are used to build a multi-dimensional tower of different heights. Aligns with F-BF.A.1.

Build as many different looking towers as is possible, each exactly four cubes high using two colors of Unifix Cubes. Convince yourself and others that you have found all possible towers four cubes high and that you have no duplicates.
