Sometimes a skeleton is all you get. This lesson outline provides teachers with a basic lesson flow. Pupils will pre-test, order place value names, use manipulatives, and build and compare numbers. How this is to be done is not...

Students use pattern blocks to create a figure that is described to them and establish a pattern based on the description of the geometric figure. For this pattern blocks lesson plan, students fill out shape and fraction worksheets.

Middle schoolers factor and solve systems of equation. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the point of intersection using substitution, elimination and graphing. They write an equation given a system and a graph.

What are the different ways that people can invest in their human capital for a better future? Pupils participate in an engaging hands-on activity and analyze data regarding unemployment, the ability to obtain an education, and median...

Come full circle in learning about conic sections. Learners first look at the type of conic section formed when concentric circles intersect a standard coordinate plane. They then see which type forms when two sets of concentric circles...

Make origami ducks with your class to reinforce geometry concepts and vocabulary; develop fine motor and visual translation skills; and enrich study of Japanese culture, the pond habitat, or migration. Create a whole group "worksheet"...

Young scholars read "Casey at the Bat" and then use individual player statistics (found through internet research)to determine if their players could be considered baseball "heroes". They must justify their choices for "hero" by creating...

Students investigate time. In this investigative lesson, students run through an obstacle course using standard timers. They record the time and apply this knowledge to problems in math. Students record their predictions, and graph...

Learners investigate the properties and idea of the Pythagorean Theorem. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the different parts of a right triangle and relate it to the Pythagorean Theorem. They do a robotic...

Students solve problems using implicit differentiation. For this calculus lesson, students take the derivative to calculate the rate of change. They observe two robots and draw conclusion from the data collected on the two robots.

Students create identify properties of trapezoids. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the area of given trapezoids and review the area formula for parallelograms. They draw a correlation between the area of a trapezoid and that...

Students identify the slope of a line as negative, positive, zero or undefined. In this algebra lesson, students identify the distance versus the time using graphs of linear equation. They use the robot and the CEENBoT program to...

Students investigate different correlations. In this algebra activity, students analyze graphs and identify the lines as having positive, negative or no correlation. They calculate the line of best fit using a scatter plot.

Students differentiate between exponential and logarithmic functions. In this algebra lesson, students use logarithmic properties to solve equations. They identify growth and decay of graphs.

Students calculate the inverse variation, and speed given the formulas. In this algebra lesson, students investigate properties of conics, focusing on the hyperbola. They identify the distance between the directrix and other parts...

Students create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra lesson plan, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.

Students find the different ratios of a triangle. For this geometry lesson, students use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for missing sides and angles on a right triangle. They use a robot to create a right triangle.

Learners identify the equation to represent a circle. In this algebra lesson, students review properties of conics and how they are related. they use a robot to create a visual of circles and their application to the real world.

Young scholars measure the activity and parts of a robot. In this algebra lesson plan, students explore ratio and proportion using their classroom. They apply properties of fractions as they cross multiply to solve problems.

Students discuss the importance of scaling drawings. In this math activity, students create a scaled drawing of circuit boards. They explain why accuracy is very important when scaling.

Students design and build their own solar cooker. In this math lesson, students determine the relationship between the angles of the sun, reflection and cooking time of the solar cooker. They test their project, collect data and...

Learners create a spreadsheet to match a given sample. This includes adjusting column width and row height, changing alignment, changing size and style of print, changing number format.

First graders, in groups, try to figure out which box of name brand raisins have more.
