Sixth graders design two different solar ovens to learn about heat transfer. They investigate the movement of heat between objects by conduction, convection, and radiation. They become aware of things they can't control, like the...

Young scholars develop an appreciation of the use of geometry in our everyday world and structures. Students collect various picures and multimedia objcets that explain geometric principles and place them in a powerpoint presentation to...

Fifth graders participate in a class activity that helps them learn some geometric terms along with their definitions. They describe relationships between two and three-dimensional shapes and analyze attributes and properties of...

Students differentiate between corresponding sides ad angles of two triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify the differences as well as the similarities between two triangles. They differentiate between similar and...

Students identify and use the similarity theorem. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between congruent and similar triangles. They solve problems using the computer modifying shapes by dragging.

In this changing seasons activity, learners read about the geography concept of changing seasons and then respond to 9 short answer questions.

In this math worksheet, students collaborate with a "study buddy" or "coach" to learn whether an angle is acute, obtuse or right. Students follow the directions to go through the process of deciding what classification an angle has....

Young scholars examine a simple set up to measure the change in the apparent size of an object as it moves away from them.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the answer to a vocabulary questions and then follow the give rules to place the answer in the appropriate place on the crossword grid.   The one page worksheet contains 18...

Students observe a demonstration of light refraction. They experiment with disappearing crystals to further study light refraction.

Students investigate shapes. In this dimension and orientation of shapes instructional activity, students identify and color shapes, use shape stamps to form animals, glue shapes together to make other objects and describe how...

In this geometry worksheet, students match the geometry term with its definition. Students match 12 geometry terms with their definitions.

Students complete vocabulary building and word work exercises prior to reading an online article. They complete worksheets and an online quiz. They examine the use of homophones. They compare articles about famous people and write...

First graders create Aboriginal Dot Turtles using wax colors or crayons. The class discusses Aboriginal stories and art as a way to practice design. This lesson can be done in two 30-minute lesson segments.

Students explore geometry by participating in a shape rotation experiment. For this symmetry lesson, students identify the term symmetry and a list of other geometry vocabulary. Students analyze shapes as they are turned 90 degrees and...

Fifth graders work with polygons.

In this angle relationships worksheet, 10th graders solve 7 problems related to the different types of angles that occur in pairs. First, they identify each pair of angles as adjacent, vertical, complementary, supplementary, and/or as a...

In this measuring angles worksheet, students complete a set of 10 multiple choice questions, clicking on a link for answers or to print the page. Worksheet is labeled "pretest."

Students identify the unique parts of the body of skates and their egg cases.

Seventh graders identify a polygon and classify them using congruent sides and number of edges and vertices. Students transform two dimensional objects into three dimensional objects.

Students gain understanding of structure, characteristics, and basic needs of living things and their role in world, identify parts of skate, observe details of skate's body and skate egg case, and identify unique characteristics of skates.

Recognize rays, lines, and line segments in geometric figures. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Draw rays, lines, and line segments with given points. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

In this lesson, students will identify and draw lines, segments, rays, angles, and points.
