Students practice reading for comprehension and understanding. In groups, students read, out loud, using a conversation voice. They predict and discuss the story as it unfolds.

Students rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. In this algebra lesson, students write linear equations using the slope and y intercept. They write equations given two points that are on the line.

Students explore the physical aspect of a slope. In this algebra lesson, students graph a slope and write an equation for a slope. They identify slopes of zero, negative lines and positive lines.

Students demonstrate how to add positive integers. For this computation instructional activity, students read the book Less Than Zero and use a number line and counters to play an addition game using positive integers.

Students use an interactive website that chronicles the occupation of the Korean peninsula by each year and complete a worksheet. This helps them to research the causes of the Korean War.

Students graph linear equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students perform transformation on linear equations. They identify the slope and y-intercept of each line.

Fifth graders discover lines of symmetry for shapes and everyday objects. In this lines of symmetry lesson, 5th graders use a butterfly outline to find lines of symmetry. Students analyze everyday objects for symmetry and use...

Students solve systems of equations.  In this solving systems of equations lesson, students look for the intersection of the two lines in the system.  Students solve systems that have one solution, no solution, and infinite...

Eighth graders review immigration vocabulary. In this immigration lesson, 8th graders review vocabulary words using a SMART Board file and then take a quiz on the vocabulary words related to 19th century American immigration.

Students find and define the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson,students differentiate between positive and negative slopes. They define the properties and slopes of vertical and horizontal lines.

Students multiply inequalities by negative. In this algebra activity, students solve inequalities and graph their solutions on a number line. They pay close attention to the negative consequence, which causes the sign to flip.

Students construct tangent lines. In this geometry lesson, students identify the point of tangency, secant and tangent lines. They graph the lines on the Ti and make observations.

Students graph linear equations using a table. In this algebra lesson, students create a table of values using the linear equation to find the y-values. They plot their point on a coordinate plane and graph the line.

Learners investigate methods of estimating through cooperative group activities, hands-on activities, the use of tables and graphs and an interactive video.

Students participate in an instant activity as they enter the gym. They work with a parachute, moving it using different motions. They use their wrists, to move the parachute while moving in a circle, and play a game of Cat and Mouse...

Young scholars explore alphabetical and chronological organization through geography. In this lesson on ancient India, students use computers to create and publish autobiographical time lines to illustrate important events in their...

Students solve problems using the distributive property. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve equations by multiplication and combining like terms. They graph their lines on the calculator.

Students use "Kid Pix" to explore plants. In this science and technology lesson plan, students become familiar with plant parts and label them on a plant. Students tell the functions of each of the plant parts.

Students investigate the importance of ocean resources and what humans need to do to maintain a healthy ocean.  In this oceans activity students participate in an activity after viewing a PowerPoint presentation on the Earth's...

Students identify the properties of different polygons. In this geometry activity, students find the slope of a line and calculate the distance between two lines. They differentiate between similar and congruent polygons.

Students solve problems involving motion and distance. In this calculus instructional activity, students use to derivative to calculate the velocity-of a function. They observe objects moving along a straight line.

Students analyze the motion of a particle along a straight line. In this precalculus lesson, students use the TI to analyze the position of a function as they graph and visualise the function. They calculate the distance and...

Students investigate and study logarithmic equations. In this precalculus lesson, students analyze the data behind the function. They define each graph as positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit.

Fifth graders complete a variety of activities surrounding European exploration of the New World. They research one explorer and write and present an essay or script in which they portray that explorer as he makes his final report to his...
