Money motivates! Help young bankers understand how math plays a part in investing. Give learners math practice while instilling real-world financial literacy skills.
Curated OER
RCX Car Line Graph
Students develop a line graph based on distances that an RCX car drives in specified amounts of time. They then are given a specific amount of time for the car to drive and be asked to extrapolate the car's distance from the graph.
Curated OER
How Far Will It Roll?
Pupils construct a car with the longest roll using a ramp. They construct Lego cars, modify the wheel sizes and car configurations to evaluate which car design rolls the longest distance, develop a graph, and complete a worksheet.
Curated OER
Graphing and the Coordinate Plane
Students gain practice reading coordinates and plotting points by participating in the Coordinates! Game. They demonstrate and test their skills with graph paper and the Maze Game.
Curated OER
The Estimation Station
Pupils challenge "common knowledge" against newly learned estimation strategies and put those strategies into use. They consider variables in estimating different groups of objects and practice skills of representing numbers.
Curated OER
Car Maze competition
Learners use graphs to calibrate an RCX car. They must then program the car to traverse a maze using their calibrations
Curated OER
Fractions
Fourth graders explore fractions. They use Skittles and M&M's to practice adding and subtracting fractions. Students review the numerator and the denominator of fractions. They count the number of each color of Skittles and M&M's...
Curated OER
Balloon Rocket
Young scholars observe a balloon rocket and how it relates to Newton's Third Law of Motion. For this balloon rocket lesson plan, students make a balloon rocket out of balloons, clothespins, straw, fishing line, and duct tape.
Curated OER
Sled Kites and Trigonometry
Students study the history of kites and their fundamental properties. In this kites lesson students divide into teams and build and fly kites.
Curated OER
Clock Arithmetic and Cryptography
High schoolers investigate modular clock arithmetic and cryptography. They perform basic operations in modular (clock) arithmetic and encode and decode messages using simple shift and affine ciphers.
Curated OER
The Strongest Shape
Students work collaboratively to design and construct a roof out of Legos for a house that was built in a previous lesson. The roof must be structurally sound and pass certain criteria determined by the teacher.
Curated OER
Modular Arithmetic
Students investigate modular arithmetic and how to use it to solve real world problems. For this modular arithmetic lesson, students use computers to work on modular arithmetic after a teacher guided lesson. They complete guided practice...
Curated OER
Clock Arithmetic and Cryptography
Students explore the concept of modular arithmetic and cryptography. In this modular arithmetic and cryptography lesson, students use applets to explore modular arithmetic using a clock and Caesar Ciphers. Students exchange their ciphers...
Curated OER
The Bell Curve
Students explore the concept of the bell curve. In this bell curve lesson, students discuss the controversy associated with the bell curve. Students use an applet to explore a normal distribution. Students discuss mean, median, mode,...
Curated OER
Tractor Construction
Students working in small groups will build tractors. They must design a tractor that is able to pull various weights.
Curated OER
Torque Me Off
Students investigate the lever and the mathematics associated with levers. They determine the conditions necessary to balance a system of forces around a fulcrum.
Curated OER
Lesson 56
Sixth graders practice Least Common Multiple in fractions. For this fraction lesson, 6th graders look at two different fractions and find a common denominator. They sing a song to memorize mean, median, and mode.
Curated OER
What You See Is Not Always What You Get!
Students estimate and calculate the distance of a shape. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between a horizontal distance and it's reflected image. They measure the reflection and the point starting at the eye of the observer.
