Student are assigned one of the sections on whole numbers. After reviewing the content, they teach their assigned sections to other class mates. They publish their findings on a PowerPoint slide show to use when they teach their section.

Fourth graders are introduced to the various types of measurements. Using a recipe, they practice measuring out the correct amount of ingredients while making the food. They also practice using a scale and following the directions on a...

Young scholars explore mathematics by participating in a group activity. For this number value lesson, students identify the uses for decimals and how to best estimate whole numbers based on decimals and fractions. Young scholars...

Students graph systems of equation. In this calculus lesson, students graph their lines on a TI calculator. They identify the point of intersection and the type of solution.

Student approximate the roots of E using Newtons Method. In this calculus instructional activity, young scholars calculate the equation of tangent a line. They use the TI to visualize the tangent line.

High schoolers graph Taylor polynomials. In this calculus lesson, students relate accuracy of a Taylor polynomial to the degree of the equation. They graph their polynomials using the TI calculator.

In this Mars radiation worksheet, students use data from the Mars Radiation Environment Experiment to solve 4 problems. They determine the total radiation dosage during a specific period of time, they determine the dosage during the...

In this algebra worksheet, students rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. They solve for the amount of population or money over a period of time. There are 10 questions with an answer key.

Eighth graders explore the term capacity and understand the word's meaning. They participate in several lab stations set up around the room in which they will estimate how many scoops it will take to fill the container. They then will...

Twelfth graders use Algebra and Geometry to solve a real life problem at the Zoo.

Fourth graders estimate the measurements of trees using unconventional techniques.

Students explore multiplication. In this multiplication problem solving lesson, students view a video clip which demonstrates loading a truck with packages.  Students fill in a blank array to represent 1"X 2" and the multiples when...

Tenth graders explore how to use basic geometry and calculation skills to design their dream house. They use calculation to design the home and estimate the price within a budget of $150,000.

Simulate a random sampling of data by tearing 20 sheets of paper into slips and place a number on 10 and a letter on 10. They place the slips in two separate containers and randomly draw a number and a letter. They record their...

Students explore wolves. In this ecology and wolves lesson, students research predator-prey relationships on the Internet and complete a related worksheet with a partner. Students interpret data on bar graphs to determine growth and...

Students discover scales for both the solar bodies' relative sizes and their distances from the sun. They find equatorial circumference and volumes of their solar bodies. Students apply estimation strategies and proportioanl reasoning to...

Learners examine the change in the diversity of animals living in an area before and after development. In order to do this, students need to have access to an area near their school which is undeveloped. A good, "real life" lesson plan.

Students take part in various activities ranging from creating a human clock, to small group problem solving to reinforce the concept of telling time accurately to five minutes on an analog clock.

Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this lesson. They trace their hand on a grid, determine the coordinates of each point, and create a scatter plot of their points. Pupils use this information to investigate aspect...

Third graders measure time and length. Through the use of video and technology, they explore key elements of measurement, such as units and conversion between units. They explore alternate units of measurement and apply measurement to...

Second graders work with liters and milliliters for measurement.

In this quadratic worksheet, learners read short stories, write quadratic equations and use their problem solving skills to solve the equation. Students use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of a diagonal, dimensions of a...

Pupils are introduced to a method for finding square roots used by the Babylonian people of Mesopotamia. The method involves dividing and averaging, over and over, to find a more accurate solution with each repeat of the process.

Seventh graders discuss water issues and its affect on salmon population. They recreate a sampling river with fish (cheddar) and scoop them to tag them (which means they exchange them for pretzel fish.) They complete a spreadsheet to...
