Fourth graders measure the height and arm span of various classmates. They use a spreadsheet to design a graph that shows the class measurements from tallest to shortest in metric and standard systems.

Seventh graders create a graph of their Christmas gifts. They develop categories, compute fractional and decimal parts for each category, identify the number of degrees to represent each fractional part, and create a circle graph to...

Eighth graders review their understanding about numbers and number systems through playing the Number Game. They create a list of numbers and based upon the characteristics and properties of the numbers they will earn points.

Third graders discover the main purpose for totem poles was to communicate with others. In groups, they compare and contrast the four types of totem poles and the various symbols used. They write their own stories based off of pictures...

Students discuss what enables us to read a face: features, expressions, standards of beauty, age and gender. They discuss what enables us to read motion: repetition, sequence, changes in form and scene.

Young scholars create and give oral proposals for the construction of a gazebo using a blueprint created with Geometer's Sketchpad. They then build a gazebo model using the blueprints created and provide evidence why it should be...

Students are introduced to the topic of area. In groups, they share various techniques to help them identify different shapes and work together to calculate the area. They use this same knowledge to determine the area of animal tracks...

Young scholars explore two LEED certified green buildings. They examine what is the LEED certification process and what constitutes a green building. They tour via the internet two LEED certified green buildings, while comparing and...

In this math activity, students find the interval convergence of the series. They also practice writing a series and the functions. Students find the Taylor series about zero.

In this function instructional activity, students map equations and identify three dominant characteristics. They evaluate functions of complex variables. This three-page instructional activity contains approximately ten problems.

For this complex variable worksheet, students explore the functions of a complex variable. They map complex variables and solve complex inequalities. This three-page worksheet contains fourteen problems.

Second graders count by 2's to get to 100. For this counting lesson plan, 2nd graders use the program Kid Pix to create stamps two at a time until they get to 100.

Students recognize similarities and generalize patterns. In this math and technology lesson plan, students develop an understanding of number patterning by grouping stamps and counting by 10s.

Students investigate the affect shape has on the ability of a solar panel to collect sunlight.  In this collecting sunlight using a solar panel lesson, students determine which solar panel shape collects the most sunlight. ...

Sixth graders create a non linear story with multiple possibilities and endings. In this non linear story lesson plan, 6th graders research non linear stories, create their own, and illustrate it.

Students practice creating art by imitating the camouflage of fish. In this animal characteristic lesson, students identify certain fish and their ability to change colors in order to survive in the wild. Students utilize coloring...

Students relate topology to polygons. In this geometry lesson, students make the connection between different shapes and topologically equivalent relationships. They use Mobius strips to create and move shapes around.

Students investigate the relationship between angles of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of right and non-right triangles. They differentiate between vertical and supplementary angles.

Students find missing angles and sides of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students create intersecting lines to measure angles. They use Cabri Software to create virtual angles.

In this rounding money activity, students identify the money amounts in each examples and round to the nearest dollar for the 10 examples.

Students learn the difference between perimeter and area by watching a video and a hands on activity.

Tenth graders recognize, perform and derive rules for basic transformations including translation, reflection and rotation. They also consider compositions, a combination of two or more basic transformations. Students explore both...

Second graders use a number line to practice subtraction.  In this subtraction lesson, 2nd graders use a number line to count backwards.  Students participate in mad math activities and solve problems.

Seventh graders examine congruence postulates and apply knowledge to triangles in the world around them.
