What was Shakespeare's intent? That is the question at the heart of a summer assignment designed for AP English Literature. Class members focus on five scenes from The Tempest and compare the interactions of Prospero, Caliban,...

Give grammar instruction a boost with a basketball-themed game all about analogies! Working in pairs, learners quiz each other's analogy knowledge testing how many they can complete and earn the most points.

Here is part one of a two-part lesson in which scholars investigate the changing states of water—liquid, solid, and gas. With grand conversation and up to three demonstrations, learners make predictions about what they think will happen...

How does propaganda influence our vote? Through grand conversation, scholars gain information about what is and how to identify the different ways propaganda is used in a presidential election. Using their new-found knowledge, citizens...

Class members will dig this activity that has them trying their hand at recovering artifacts. Groups are assigned a section of a sandbox, carefully uncover the artifacts in their section, and then develop theories about who might...

Translate vectors to find equivalent ones. An interactive shows 10 randomly displayed vectors. Pupils grab the vectors and move them to group them with similar vectors in magnitude and direction. Scholars find the groups of vectors that...

Don't hem and haw, learn about equations using a seesaw. An easy-to-use interactive has pupils move a seesaw on a coordinate plane to investigate the standard form of a linear equation. By completing a set of challenge questions, they...

The sole purpose of this interactive is to graph a function representing the distance of a car from a shoe store. Scholars use an interactive to graph such an absolute value function. They then answer a set of challenge questions...

To be (a function) or not to be (a function). An easy-to-use interactive has pupils drag a vertical line onto several graphs to determine if they represent functions. Some challenge questions assess understanding of this idea.

Keep this resource close by. Given conditions on how close by a child must be to a babysitter, scholars use an interactive to position a picture of the child in relation to the babysitter. Compound inequalities help represent the condition.

Here's an interactive that complements your lesson plans. Users of the resource adjust one of the angles in a complementary set to see how it affects the other. A set of challenge questions assesses understanding.

Balloons aren't just for little kids; they can teach important math concepts, too. Individuals use an interactive to continue a color pattern with balloons. They continue the pattern and write a mathematical expression to represent the...

There's no easier test than the vertical line test. Learners drag a vertical line across the graphs of several relations in an interactive. They answer a set of challenge questions that focus on whether the graphs represent functions.

We'd all like to see our money double. An interactive shows how an initial investment of $1,000 will increase using a constant rate of return. Scholars answer a set of challenge questions based on the situation.

Limits to infinity are simple to find if you can compare numerators and denominators. Users of the interactive drag expressions to match with their limit as x approaches infinity. A set of challenge questions assesses their groupings.

Fight against the current. Pupils explore the resulting path when they are crossing a river while being pushed downstream by the current. Using vector notation, learners express the speed and direction of a ferry. They finish by...

A Christmas-themed math game prompts partners to find a multiplication fact on the board, say the fact, and cover it with chips. The last person to cover the last multiplication fact wins!

Test mathematicians' knowledge of adding fractions with a brief assessment that challenges them to play teacher while correcting a peer's work. Scholars examine Carl's mathematical response, identify where he went wrong,...

Introduce young musicians to the history of and different styles of music with an inquiry-based learning activity that asks them to play detectives to determine the similarities and differences among the sheet music found at a series of...

Developing a test that uses primary sources to assess class members knowledge of the history of the United States is no easy task! Save yourself the time and stress and use a final exam that includes essay, multiple choice, and short...

Nine true or false, multiple-choice, and discussion questions make up an interactive designed to reinforce scholars' knowledge of prime and composite numbers. A number chart reveals every prime number through 100.
