Fifth graders investigate possible solutions to a word problem. They explore properties of polygons and right angles. Students demonstrate proper angle measurement. Students discover patterns.

Students examine Triangle Congruency. In this measurement comparison instructional activity, students use inductive, deductive and analytical thinking skills to prove triangle congruency. Students analyze and record their findings on...

Fourth graders investigate congruent shapes. In this congruency activity, 4th graders explore examples of congruent shapes. Students determine how to check for congruency by sliding or flipping the shape.

Learners discover and practice how to calculate the circumference of the Earth. They measure the length of their shadows and use the distance they are away from the equator to complete the calculations. They discuss winter or summer...

Fourth graders work in co-operative teams of four to complete a puzzle. Each student initially works independently, and then the team jointly puts together the four shapes they have individually made, to complete the puzzle.

Students design a program to make an automated vehicle perform a specific task. In this robotics lesson, students play the role of scientists competing to win a factory's contract. They present their algorithm to class.

Students use simple machines that demonstrate force, friction, work and power. They investigate and explain simple machines.

In this exploring pendulums activity, students experiment with pendulums they make in the lab. They vary the length of the strings and the weights to observe the changes in the pendulum's amplitude and frequency. They answer 3 analysis...

Tenth graders investigate the theorems of ASA, AAS, AAA and ASA. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders discuss the theorems of triangles and how it is used to solve for missing sides or angles. They review how two angles are formed by...

In this math worksheet, students review for the high school exit exam of New York. They solve problems using algebra, geometry, and precalculus. There are 30 questions.

Students construct a sketch of the planets in our solar system using concentric circles and angles. In this solar system lesson plan, students plot the position of each planet on concentric circles using graph paper. The sun is included...

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

Students address common misconceptions concerning reflection, light and mirrors. They investigate light reflection in mirrors and determine how light is transferred to the eye. In addition, they make predictions and then test them...

Young scholars construct two dimensional models to illustrate squared numbers. For this geometry lesson, students use graph paper and an x/y axis to build squares exponentially. Young scholars identify powers and relationships between...

In  this standardized test preparation worksheet, 8th graders solve several varying problems.  This twelve page test preparation worksheet asks students to show their work and explain how they arrived at their answers. 

Tenth graders investigate parallel lines and the angles formed when cut by a transversal. In this geometry lesson plan, 10th graders construct perpendicular lines and discuss midpoint, segments and perpendicular bisectors. They relate...

Students maximizethe comfort-conditioning of a home.

Students observe and gather data from a model simulated home.  In this efficiency activity students examine the factors that influence energy efficiency, complete a lab activity then draw conclusions from their data.

Students create a piece of monochromatic art. In this monochromatic art instructional activity, students design a piece of art and analyze their painting objectively. Students connect color and emotions.

The interactive lesson featured here calls for the use of a Smartboard for sorting and classifying shapes. Then, pupils discuss the rules they followed for sorting their shapes, particularly focusing on the properties of angles. While...

Fifth graders determine how to calculate the perimeter and area of given geometric shapes. They use specific shapes to create a picture using a software program. They determine the area and perimeter of the shapes used in the picture.

Life science learners discover the range of peripheral vision. They compare the angles at which they can detect motion, colors, and detailed shapes. 

Students study what makes Earth warm and explore how different locations on the planetreceive different amounts of solar energy based on the intensity of the sun's rays. They calculate light intensities and compare the amounts of light...
