Students problem solve to find the probability of each tree in a small forest to catch fire. In this probability lesson plan, students use the computer to complete this application.

Students complete computer activities about estimating if items are more or less than a given amount. In this estimation lesson plan, students also estimate measurements around the classroom.

Students explore geometry by using computer applications. In this spatial measurement lesson, students discuss the difference between area, weight, volume and other forms of measurement. Students utilize computer applications to find the...

Pupils rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.

Learners classify items and numbers by using a Venn diagram. In this Venn diagram lesson plan, students use the computer to do this and classify pictures and numbers.

Students create a variety of graphs. They count, sort, and classify M&M's by color and record data on a chart. They use data from the chart to create pictographs, bar graphs and circle graphs. They analyze data and determine...

Students develop algebraic equations to solve problems involving farm animals. They watch a video, use manipulatives to determine the number of birds and pigs on the farm, and create original problems for their classmates to solve.

Fifth graders, after inventorying, add up the numerators of their fractions to see if it is the same number as the denominator. If it is, then they are ready to build whatever they wish, but using only what is in their individual inventory.

Students apply their knowledge of scale when mapping the classroom. They determine the use of a map legend and orient a map using a compass. They create the classroom maps using transfer graph paper.

Pupils sort shoes. In this sorting lesson, students use shoes to explore attributes and practice sorting. This lesson encourages the use of a Venn Diagram to aide in student sorting.

Students identify numbers as prime or composite and complete prime factorization of composite numbers.

Students use a Hersey bar to help them practice with fractions. The teacher gives a fraction and they are to create it with the chocolate bars.

Students in a teacher education program develop a technology based lesson plan. After the lesson is created, they develop their own performance assessment. They identify the characteristics of good assessment instruments and model best...

Students analyze and interpret graphs. In this graphing instructional activity, students view a video and construct their own graphs (line, circle, bar) from given sets of data. 

Students explore Geometry with Twizzlers Candy, pipe cleaners, paper, pencils, and protractors. They manipulate these items to create different angles introduced by the teacher.

Fourth graders investigate one planet, enter information into a database, and print the database sorting for each of the attributes.

Students, with a partner, examine the relationship of fractions to whole numbers through the use of Fraction Pizza software by Panasonic.

Students explore kinetic and potential energy. In this energy lesson, students launch toys cars from ramps in order to examine the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy. Students collect data and graph the results.

First graders represent, compare, and order numbers. In this counting skills lesson, 1st graders use manipulatives to demonstrate one-to-one correspondence and to represent numbers. This lesson includes a teacher script to guide the lesson.

First graders practice identifying number patterns. In this basic patterns lesson, 1st graders use a large number line and jump to certain numbers to create, identify or extend a pattern. This lesson includes a script to guide the teacher.

Second graders examine several coins to determine their values. Pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters are counted. Music is added to the instructional activity to enhance the experience.

Students review adding without regrouping the numbers. They are divided into groups and have to write the answer to the problem given on their papers.

Students are introduced to the concepts of perimter, diameter, circumference and measurements. In groups, they complete two worksheets in which they determine if the ice dimensions make a difference in the way it floats. They discuss...

Students are split up into groups of 3-4 kids, they write one story problem for each catagory: Santa's workshop, Reindeer Barn, Mrs. Claus' Kitchen. They read their story probems to the class and award points to the other teams for their...
