Whether you wrap it or fill it, you're using geometric concepts. Classmates use an interactive approach to learn how to find volume and surface area of cylinders and prisms in the second lesson in a five-part series. The online lesson...

Time to find out what they've learned! The final lesson of a five-part series has learners complete a 39-question multiple choice review. They use what they've learned in the previous lessons to complete questions that include concepts...

Young scholars listen to a song that teaches the elements of the periodic table and write their own song to be used as an aid in remembering scientific information.

Students consider the elements that make computer games compelling, then use these elements to develop game 'narratives' based on historic events.

Students discuss how color construct meaning in art. They will demonstrate a technical knowledge and creative use of formal elements and principals of design. Students then discuss the way their selection of color contributed to their work.

Learners determine the average mass of a new element using masses from three isotopes. In this chemistry lesson, students explain what an isotope is. They discuss their importance and uses.

Students prepare an ad for an element, including properties and uses, in an attention getting format such as that used in the advertising business.

Students review atomic structure and then participate in a activity in which they categorize several "elements" into some form of order based on their properties. They discuss the trends they see. They also practice several electron...

Students are introduced to the periodic table. They find the common trends among the electron configurations and the names of certain groups of the table. Students explore the atomic mass, atomic number, mass number, mass and charge...

Young scholars gain a perspective in the development of chemistry. They understand some of the topics in their text and the ongoing nature of research. They then will be able to see the trends of the periodic table first hand through...

Eleventh graders examine the history and development of the periodic table and properties of elements. They complete worksheets, take notes during a teacher-led discussion, and produce their own periodic table.

How do you get a theorem named after you? Euler knows what it takes! The third lesson of five asks pupils to use an interactive activity to compare the faces, vertices, and edges of seven different three-dimensional solids. They use...

Explore vocabulary related to three-dimensional shapes. An instructional website describes the characteristics of different geometric solids. Learners can use an interactive component to view nets, faces, vertices, and edges of common...

Words, words, words! This presentation uses plenty of them to define the atom, outline the history of what we know about atoms, and explain atomic and mass numbers. That's all! Informative, but not interesting, this slide show would be...

Students research the history and uses of the different elements in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson, students explain the significance of an element's valence electrons. They create a multimedia presentation of an element...

Students use reference skills to locate information about the periodic table. They identify elements by name, atomic number, atomic mass, symbol and properties. Students use mathematical processes to find the number of protons,electrons...

Young scholars describe the relationship between animals and humans. In this biology lesson plan, students research about the history of horses in America. They present a mock news broadcast about their research.

Students perform varied activities as part of a layered curriculum unit: They write and perform a skit that outlines the evolution of the model of the atom. The script is submitted to the teacher for review before performance.

Study corrosion on bronze statues with a hands-on instructional activity. As pupils place a penny in water with salt, they observe the changes in the penny throughout a period of a week. They then analyze the pre-conservation and...

From polyhedrons to platonic solids, here is a lesson that will have your classes talking! As an introduction to platonic solids, scholars cut and fold nets to create the three-dimensional solids. They use an interactive component to...

Ninth graders review and discuss the Periodic table and its 53 elements. They choose one element to become an expert on and then create a written Report in the form of a poster about their choosen element to be presented to the class.

In this physics worksheet, students develop an understanding of the atomic model and how atoms relate to one another through answering the seven questions.

Students explore natural disasters and the devastation caused by them. Using specified websites, learners examine how people rebuild after a disaster. In groups, they design and rebuild a community and conclude by writing an essay...

Students perform an experiment to show the chemical reactions that occur when metal corrodes. They apply the results of the experiment to the conservation efforts of art curators trying to restore an ancient Greek bronze. This...
