Learners determine the exact relationship between the height from which a ball is dropped and the distance that it rebounds.

Students determine the size of the population at a given time. They calculate the time at which the population will be a given number. They observe how the population grows at the rate that is directly proportional to the number of...

Don't forget to tip your server. Future consumers learn how to calculate sales taxes and tips. Pairs use actual restaurant menus to create an order and determine the total bill, including taxes and tips.

In this math worksheet, students state the tests for convergence or divergence of a series. Then they apply the tests of convergence and divergence.

Students create visuals of the effect of a spring scale. In this algebra lesson, students use the navigator to graph the effects created by a spring scale. They draw conclusion from the graph.

Students measure a set of Russian dolls using the metric system. For this measurement lesson plan, students identify certain relationships between sets of measurements by measuring a set of Russian dolls and presenting their findings to...

Middle schoolers investigate how weight affects a parachute's rate of fall.  In this investigative instructional activity students test parachutes, average results and conclude what makes a faster descent.

For this comparing ratios worksheet, students solve and complete 3 different problems using the screens shown. First, they write a ratio that compares the shaded part to unshaded part illustrated. Then, students use the same grid to...

Students are exposed to the physics and physiology of scuba diving, study the principals applied in the U.S. Navy Decompression tables and work out typical decompression problems.

Students calculate the volume of prisms and cylinders. In this geometry activity, students are give part of the formula, and must calculate the missing parts. They use 80% accuracy for their dimensions.

Students explore and experiment with the concept do new kinds of insects appear after soil modification. They assess and review scientific methods of observation, predicting, variables, math skills, ratio, proportions, graphs and the art...

Your task today: count all the trees on a tree farm. To complete the assignment, learners first estimate the number of trees on a tree farm using random sampling. To improve their own response they then evaluate provided...

Learners differentiate between similar and congruent triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify the angles of triangles using the similarity theorem. They apply concepts of triangles to the real world.

Eighth graders participate in using algebraic proportional reasoning to find the missing amount that balances on a scale. Substitution is used to discover the missing objects on a scale. They answer multiple choice questions that are...

Learners build a kite while integrating math and science. In this kite building lesson, students construct a blueprint and apply mathematical formulas while constructing a kite. They use appropriate flight and kite terminology to...

Students determine the height of objects using shadows. In this math activity, students discus methods of finding the height of items without directly measuring. Students measure shadows and figure the actual height of the object.

Students investigate the properties of lines and congruent triangle theorems as well as apply geometric properties and relationships to real-world mathematical problems. Given two different scenarios, they examine maps that have been...

Young scholars investigate art elements such as color schemes and proportion by creating their own personal Mandala Circle on paper or canvas. This also allows students to investigate mathematical concepts such as tesselations or social...

Students observe the cells of an onion by wet mounting it and viewing it in a microscope.  In this hands on lesson students make their own wet mount slide of an onion and are able to identify the cells in it such as, the nucleus,...

Learners investigate speed, time and distance. In this algebra lesson, students utilize their knowledge of linear equations to solve problems related to time, speed and distance. This assignment is hands on using two toy race cars.

Students review the principals of design or are introduced to them for the first time. The intention of the assignment is to reinforce the principles. There are strategies given to help diverse learners. The use of pictures is essential...

Students learn about sorting and classifying objects by size while reading Eric Carle's "The Grouchy Ladybug". In this sorting and classifying lesson, students first listen to and interact with the story. They then look at cut-outs of...

Fourth graders identify lines of symmetry using reflections and then construct figures that have one or more lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson plan, 4th graders use sets of shapes, pattern blocks, a mirror, and more.

For this equivalent ratios worksheet, students solve word problems when given an equivalent ratio of the answer. Students complete 7 problems.
