States of Matter: Liquid
Students work in a mini lab where they measure the temperature every 30 seconds for several minutes as water is heated. They are asked what makes liquid different from a solid. Students view a PowerPoint on the model of liquids,...
Curated OER
World Population
Students examine the world population data using MyWorld GIS software and compare and contrast the population characteristics of countries around the world. Students summarize their findings in a report.
Math Mammoth
Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
In this parallel and perpendicular line instructional activity, students find equations of a line, then determine an equation of a line that is parallel or perpendicular to the original one. They graph problems and plot points. There are...
Curated OER
Comparing Data
Eighth graders create a survey, gather data and describe the data using measures of central tendency (mean, median and mode) and spread (range, quartiles, and interquartile range). Students use these measures to interpret, compare and...
Curated OER
Ice Cream Toppings
Students explore the five senses. In this senses lesson, students use their senses to top their ice cream. Students compare and contrast the different toppings and write their observations, using descriptive words, in a notebook.
Curated OER
Spaghetti Bridges: Student Worksheet
Pairs of learners work together in order to simulate how engineers test materials for strength and safety in the real world. They use paper cups and pieces of spaghetti to run strength tests. This excellent worksheet should lead to...
Curated OER
I'm Inclined to See; Physics, Math, Science, Experiments, Graphs
Students discover the motion of a sphere on an inclined plane and discover basic relationships involving distance, time, speed(velocity), and acceleration.
Curated OER
Keeping Us in Stitches Activity: Hexagon Quilt Top Design
Students examine how the hexagon shape can be a building block for quilt patterns. They view images of quilts, discuss symmetry and design patterns, and create and name an original quilt design.
Curated OER
Chart the Stars
Seventh graders find constellation distances and plot the stars. In this star lesson, 7th graders plot the star points for Canis Major. Students use graphing calculators to graph the constellation. Students choose another constellation...
Curated OER
Slope Calculation
Students compute the slope of a line based on the coordinates of two points on the line. In addition, they examine the relationship between the numerical value of slope and its properties on a graph.
Curated OER
Writing Linear Equations
Students rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. For this algebra lesson, students write linear equations using the slope and y intercept. They write equations given two points that are on the line.
Curated OER
Chronic Conics
Fourth graders use two activities to draw four different conic sections. One activity is of a physical nature and one is traditional paper and pencil.
Curated OER
Hot Wheelin' Physics
In this physics worksheet, students complete a lab activity and record their results in the charts shown. They calculate the speed for each trial using the total time and total distance. Students also graph their results.
Curated OER
Systems of Equations
Students solve problems using systems of equations. In this algebra activity, students find the point of intersection of two lines. They use the TI Calculator to graph and see the point of intersection.
Curated OER
Homecoming Tickets
Students solve word problems using systems of equation. In this algebra lesson, students use computer and graphing to graph and analyze their solution. They solve system involving inequalities.
Curated OER
Earth on the Earth
Fourth graders plot points on a graph and transfer those coordinates onto a large scale model resulting in an outline of the Western Hemisphere. They identify the major geographical landforms of the Western Hemisphere.
Curated OER
Cartesian Coordinate System
Students explore the Cartesian coordinate plane and plot points on the graph. They interpret coordinates for a point from the graph and give the ratio of rise over run for slope.
Curated OER
It's a Drag!
Students create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra lesson plan, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.
Curated OER
How Much Will I Spend On Gas?
Students construct a linear graph. In this graphing lesson plan, students determine a monthly budget for gasoline. Students construct a t-chart and coordinate graph to display data. Resources are provided.
Curated OER
Where am I Located
Students calculate and find a certain location. In this geometry lesson, students examine a coordinate plane for pair of coordinates. They calculate the distance between point using the distance formula and estimation.
Curated OER
Using a Multi- Sensory Approach
Students identify the slope of a line given two points on the line. In this algebra activity, students solve linear equations by finding and comparing slopes of lines. They differentiate between the steepness of the slope and the line.
