Students examine the poem and artistic masterpiece The Quadroon Girl and use this knowledge to practice mathematical concepts such as: more than, less than, counting, and majority.

Students make tiles using underglaze and majolica techniques. They incorporate art history, aesthetics with a hands on activity.

Here is a great art project to use at the onset of spring. Little ones use paper towels, tempera paint, and glue to create free-form flowers. Tip: Use this idea to make the front of a Mother's Day card.

Students examine mathematicians' notion of fairness in games of chance. They work in pairs to perform three different experiments using macaroni and paper bags. They record their results on charts and compare their data.

Third graders listen to Susan Hightower's, "Twelve Snails to One Lizard" and discuss the need for standard units of measurement. They make a body model on butcher paper which they use to measure their body parts and complete a worksheet....

Students discover the basic concept of measuring.  In this mathematics relationship lesson, students identify length, volume, weight, time and area in order to measure different units.  Students measure items using different...

First graders practice nonstandard measurement and estimating and measuring lengths of objects.

In this science observation scavenger hunt worksheet, students use 10 riddles to find items hidden in an outside area then map the locations of each item.

For this geometry worksheet, learners math the shape to it's name. The shapes are drawn out with a small example to trigger the memory of the students. There are 33 questions with an answer key.

Students compute the area of a rectangle.  In this area lesson, students measure the sides of rectangles and squares.  They cut figures, measure them, and determine the area of each given figure.  Students justify their...

Learners explore circuits.  In this electricity science lesson, students build a circuit board after viewing a related PowerPoint presentation. Detailed instructions are included.

Students experiment and discuss circuits and how they work. In this science lesson, students construct a telegraph machine using cardboard, wires, battery, electric tape and masking tape. They investigate what happens as the circuits...

In this Euler's Theorem worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 15 various types of problems. First, they find the distance and midpoint of a segment given its endpoints. Then, students identify the number of vertices, edges, and...

In this SAT worksheet, high schoolers solve 10 multiple choice questions.  Students find ratios, integer relationships, prime numbers, etc.

Eighth graders explore the scarcity of energy resources. They also explore the competition for natural resources and the inadequate distribution of natural wealth among the Earth's nations.

In this conversion worksheet, student use the factor-label method or unit analysis method to convert given measurements from one unit to another unit.

Students to the book, Life in a Pond, then discuss the food chain and create a food chain mobile. On one strip of paper students draw and label a pond plant, on another a tadpole, on another a fish and on the last a person.

Students construct a model giant kelp and kelp forest inhabitants based on field-guide photographs. Students also place animal cutouts in appropriate positions on or near the plant.

Fourth graders study the Civil War and discuss what soldiers ate during that time period. In groups, representing Union and Confederate soldiers, they follow recipes, prepare, eat, and share Union hardtack and Confederate Johnnie Cakes.

Fourth graders read and share chapters of The Boxcar Children. In this wants and needs lesson, 4th graders understand through their reading the differences between wants and needs. Students complete a worksheet about wants and needs...

Students explore classification. In this science lesson plan, students arrange a variety of foods into their proper food groups. This and other related activities will aid in the development of the students' critical thinking skills.

Learners conduct a variety of experiments related to solar energy, heating, cooling, gravity, physical insulation and wind. They consider how the experiments relate to energy and the consumption of energy and then participate in a class...

Study customary measurements with your sixth graders. They will investigate linear and capacity measurements to then measure and convert linear and capacity units. Finally they will work in small groups to conduct experiments. Resources...

Everyone wants to have the biggest snow cone possible, so would that be in cone-shaped cup or a more cylinder-style cup? Hungry geometry juniors compute the volume of each in this practical task.
