In this root finding activity, students compare graphs and shade in regions corresponding to given convergence criteria. They compute the solution of equations of one variable. This two-page activity contains six problems.

Students explore lunar eclipses and discover how to predict an eclipse the same way that ancient people did. They examine dates of recorded eclipses and find a pattern. Students apply an algorithm to the pattern.

In this math worksheet, students examine the uses of false position, Newton’s and Secant methods of finding the root of an equation.

Sixth graders engage in problem solving, communicating, reasoning, and connecting to represent and solve problems, using geometric models.

Students make a cordage and use an activity sheet to experience a skill that ancient Native American in North Carolina neded for everyday life.

Students visit a website that takes them inside of a computer to see how it works. They investigate the people who contributed to computer technology.

Students learn about credit cards and scores and how to and not to use them. In this financial concept lesson, students are given hypothetical scenarios where they are able to apply learning's to given situations as they figure rates,...

Students research a historical legend. They participate in a discussion of the legend of Kissing Kate Barlow in the novel Holes. Students then chose one of three American legends and use internet research to complete a provided graphic...

Students explore the Smithsonian Institute. In this technology and history lesson, students work in pairs to complete a worksheet by researching questions using the Smithsonian Institute website.

Seventh graders explore basic geometric definitions involving angles, area, and circumference. To reinforce basic geometric concepts, they play a "lightning Flash" card game. Students discuss chores or jobs that require the use of...

In this sunspots worksheet, students read about the large sunspots observed for thousands of years and their indication of solar storms. Students use given images to find the scales and physical sizes of the 3 sunspots shown.

Students construct model rockets, measure and record the height of the launch.  In this creative activity students use different methods to calculate velocity and height data from their launched rockets.

Pupils view a PowerPoint presentation called, Archaeological Terms then discuss the job of an archaeologist and new vocabulary. They view the teacher made "artifact grid" and photograph the grid from different angles. They work in groups...

Students demonstrate probability distribution of non-random variables. Students collect data on the NBA Championships. They record the data and compute subsets and permutations.

Students test their knowledge of the Wright Brothers and their aircraft, and compute ratio of two numbers to determine the ratio between wing span and length of aircraft.

Young scholars construct hot air balloons. In this science lesson, students assemble their own balloon using tissue paper and glue. They time the duration of the flight, record data and calculate team averages.

Students create a scale model of the affected area of the Chernobyl disaster. Using this scale model, they simulate the explosion and the resulting uneven dispersal of fallout due particularly to wind direction and weather conditions.

Young scholars analyze and integrate mathematical concepts within the context of social studies. They gather, present and analyze information on a bar graph, pie chart, etc. Students compute ratios. They demonstrate that ratios have...

Students jog for three minutes at the beginning of the class, increasing one minute per week for ten weeks. They count each lap as one mile on the Appalachian Trail, computing the class average and plotting their progress on a class map.

High schoolers examine graphs of three statistics and use basic math to compute their own. They evaluate the implications of manipulating data and whether statistics are appropriate for creating policy.

Students learn how to use maps, compute mileage, and be physically active while exploring America's national parks, historical heritage, and nutritional information via key agricultural sites.

Students are introduced to representative works of various artists including Paul Klee, Piet Mondrian, Sonia Delauny, Henri Matisse, Joan Miro and Henri Rosseau. They read books, participate in discussion and create original works of art.

Sixth graders measure pot sherds and use their knowledge of Pi to infer possible uses of pottery. They also infer possible functions of ancient ceramics. After tracing rounded pottery pieces onto paper, 6th graders use compasses to...
