Learners explore evolution. After watching a video on evolution, students perform a variety of experiments using beans which illustrate the concept of evolution.

Young scholars measure and correlate their foot lengths and body heights, then use this data to estimate height of Laetoli hominids. They use metric measurement and graphing to determine these heights.

Students research six different mathematicians using Internet resources. They examine the contributions of different cultures, women, and one that made a significant to geometry. They present their research to the class.

In an interdisciplinary exploration, trace the development of West Nile fever and Lyme diseases. Pupils discover how these diseases are contracted. They collect statistical data and analyze trends.

Students explore visual perception and how objects change as distance changes. In this distance and vision lesson, students practice their scientific inquiry skills. Students practice drawing objects from different points of view in...

Students explore study different mathematicians. In this mathematician lesson, students research twelve mathematicians. Students question one another to guess who their mathematician is. Students create a timeline of big events in math.

Pupils explore animals that are endangered. They choose an endangered animal that they would like to keep from becoming extinct. Students create a persuasive presentation to persuade someone to understand why they feel keeping their...

Pupils sequence events in their own lives and assign each a numerical time, students use the same process to sequence actual events in the evolution of life on Earth.

Learners estimate the size of a sea turtle nest, or clutch, that contains about 120 eggs. They decide what type of container that they are familiar with that could hold a complete nest or clutch. Finally, students calculate the volume...

For this activity, students explore nine scatter plots to develop their understanding of how two quantitative variables are related. Through an exploration of the properties of this association, they come to understand the standard...

Learners will use technology to research and explore mathematicians.
