Learners study the parts and functions of the human eye. They create dodecagons which are twelve-sided figures with twelve equal angles and share these with the class so that each student can begin to see how many different illusions can...

Students explore human senses. In this applied Science activity, students utilize their senses to distinguish various objects. Students explain their descriptions.

Students explore the senses. In this Applied Science lesson, students investigate the items in "feely" boxes with their hands, both touching the items and shaking the boxes to hear the sound the items make. Students also smell and taste...

Natural human interest in patterns and algebraic study of function notation are linked in this introductory unit on the properties of sequences. Once presented with a pattern or situation, the class works through how to justify...

In this calculating the horizon worksheet, students solve 6 problems using algebra, derivatives and calculus to find the formula for the line-of-sight horizon, the distance along a planet, the horizon distance and the rates of change for...

Learners examine population density in Jewish ghettos. In this Holocaust lesson plan, students calculate population density of cities around the world using the provided information. Learners then discuss the implications of high...

Pupils are taught that they can gather information about objects using the five senses of vision, touch, smell, taste, and hearing. They are told that some sensing, like sight, is done remotely. Students observe how a camera can capture...

Get a little batty with life science! This fun simulation game replicates how bats use echolocation to hunt moths in their native Hawaiian habitat. After creating blind folds and discussing some basic principles of echolocation, students...

Groups explore illumination with NASA's Lighting Environment Test Facility (LETF) as a context. Using the TI-Nspire app, groups determine the lux equation that models their simulation. They then use the lux equation to...

Emergine space engineers discover the area of complex geometric shapes. They find that, just as a spacecraft is composed of many smaller parts, so can polygons be broken into smaller shapes.

In this star count learning exercise, students solve three problems using a given polynomial and its logarithm to determine the number of stars in a given area.

In this science quiz on dogs worksheet, students answer ten questions about dogs before scrolling down to see the correct answers.

Students create news articles that help them build their knowledge, skills, and academic confidence. In this special education lesson, students use previous knowledge to write a newsletter and demonstrate their understanding of various...
