In this integers worksheet, students solve 16 addition problems by adding two integers together. There is no answer...

Whether their objective is independent living, going to college, or buying a car, pupils will participate in discussions and complete worksheets to gain an understanding of how short- and long-term goals play a large role in helping...

We all drink milk as babies, so why can't we all drink it as adults? Examine the trend in lactase production on the world-wide scale as science scholars analyze and interpret data. Groups create pie charts from the data, place them on a...

Why do shadows look different in the summer than in the winter? What causes day and night? How can a sundial be used to tell time? Answer these questions and more through two engaging lessons about light and shadows. Fourth and fifth...

It's a jungle out there! Young biologists journey to Darien, Panama to examine the intricate relationships between the organisms that inhabit the jungle. Groups begin by demonstrating an understanding of energy flow in ecosystems, then...

Learners create a dichotomous key. In this categorizing activity, students create a dichotomous key for different types of cereal. Learners classify the cereal into groups such as flakes and cereal with holes. Students discuss their...

Sixth graders investigate the nutritional value of different types of cereal. They take a survey of students that ate breakfast and create a circle graph with the results. Students examine the nutritional information on the sides of the...

Simple, single-digit addition problems fill this assignment. With a St. Patrick's Day theme, individuals write the correct answers in the shamrocks below each problem. With a little luck o' the Irish and the practice that this provides,...

Solve problems using the fundamental theorem. In this calculus lesson, students solve problems using theorems and proving theorems. They derive the fundamental theorem as they study it.

Students investigate the fundamental theorem of calculus. In this calculus lesson, students derive the fundamental theorem of calculus. They differentiate between the first and second theorem.

Learners use sliders to change the parameters of functions and examine how shifting parameters affects a graph. They identify the parameters of functions, find vertical and horizontal stretches, then calculate the scale factor and other...

Statisticians analyze different samples to find independent and dependent events. In this probability lesson, pupils predict the outcome and then calculate the real outcome. They create a tree diagram to help predict the probability of...

Rows of Nautilus shells, beach balls, sand pails, and sea gulls array this handout. Kindergartners compare the relative sizes in each row and simply color any that are the same size. This page would make terrific take-home practice for...

Students compute surface area and volume of prisms. In this surface area lesson, students find the surface area and volume of rectangular and triangular prisms. Independently, students use their computers to determine the volume,...

Third graders investigate shapes in our world. For this geometry lesson, 3rd graders describe plane and solid shapes and identify angles, solid objects and lines of symmetry. Students use online resources, graphic organizers and conduct...

Students explore the concept of quadrilaterals. In this quadrilateral lesson plan, students play with a floor tile applet to see that there are many types and characteristics of quadrilaterals including parallelograms, trapezoids,...

Fifth graders determine how to convert fractions, decimals, and percents. In this conversion lesson plan, 5th graders use an on-line applet to practice making these conversions. They review how to make the conversions in a whole class...
