For this assignment, math stars simplify ratios. The first half just displays numbers, whereas the second half describes real-world scenarios with ratios to be written and reduced. The publisher mentions CCSS.Math.Content.6.RP.3, but it...

Students use the Internet to learn about transformations and tessellations.  In this geometry lesson, students use the Internet to define the meaning of reflections, translations, rotations, glide reflection and symmetry. ...

Third graders investigate bar graphs.  In this third grade mathematics lesson, 3rd graders collect and analyze data and use the internet’s Graph challenge to create their own graphs.  Students write questions for the other...

Students identify real graphs and misleading graphs. In this algebra lesson, students surf the Internet for real life scenarios where graphs are used in a misleading way as well as in a correct way.

Students research the internet and use the information they find to plot straight line graphs. They use graphs to make comparisons of the various packages offered. Students interpret graphs and solve problems based on varying parameters.

Seventh graders publish a letter and spreadsheet using the computer. They build a three-dimesnsional object with construction paper and develop a Christmas object using coordinates on a graph. Students compose a response in their journals.

Fifth graders use captured portions of the Internet ("mininets") to perform research into climate. They create graphs of the data recorded using latitude as the independent variable and temperature as the dependent variable.

Students research African-American mathematicians.  In this middle school mathematics lesson, students celebrate Black History by conducting Internet research on an African-American, mathematicians or scientist.  Students...

Young scholars choose a polygon to define and describe, and use Power Point and the Internet to present their polygon.

Second graders research dangerous weather and how they can stay safe. In this environment lesson, 2nd graders view video clips and research the Internet to identify the different types of severe weather storms. Students complete a...
