Students solve for the area and perimeter of polygons. For this geometry lesson, students identify repeated patterns and create formula to solve problems. They make conjectures and prove hypotheses.

Students identify the properties of a dragon curve. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify sequences and patterns as they solve fractals. They investigate patterns found in nature.

Students identify the formula to find the nth term. For this algebra lesson, students finish a pattern and identify missing parts in a sequence. They write an equation given a partial sequence.

The 13th activity in a unit of 22 introduces the concept of the interquartile range (IQR). Class members learn to determine the interquartile range, interpret within the context of the data, and finish by finding the IQR using an...

Don't table the resource on writing expressions for relationships in tables. Scholars investigate relationships between variables and write algebraic expressions involving multiplication and division. These expressions help solve...

Fourth graders, in groups, explore place value for whole numbers. They explore how to use base-ten materials to make sense of place value in the tens and ones column. They also explore whole-number patterns by using base-ten materials.

Young scholars calculate the length, width, height, perimeter, area, volume, surface area, angle measures or sums of angle measures of common geometric figures. They create an equation of a line of best fit from a set of ordered...

Students identify the equation to represent a circle. In this algebra lesson, students review properties of conics and how they are related. they use a robot to create a visual of circles and their application to the real world.

Students explore Fractal designs. In this geometry lesson, students observe the different polygons created in nature and relate it to math. They define polygons on planes and rotate polygons about a point.

Third graders read the story Grandfather Tang's Story and then make their own tangrams based on the story. For this tangrams lesson plan, 3rd graders make patterns with their tangrams and follow directions their teacher...

Students creating chords intersection using circles. In this geometry lesson, students create visuals of chords ad their properties using Cabri technology. They measure the chords and explore the relationship among chords.

Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

For this triangular numbers worksheet, students create a table of triangular numbers, write a formula for the nth number, and determine the sum of any two consecutive triangular numbers. This two-page worksheet contains five problems.

Students identify the measure of missing exterior angles. In this geometry lesson,students define and apply the exterior angle theorem to solve problems. They use Cabri software to create different angles and make investigations.

Learners identify the secant segment of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students investigate secant lines formed outside the circle. They use Cabri software to create drawings and explore circles and secants.

Students explore secants and circles. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They create arguments to prove the theorems are true.

Students investigate and discuss why data is important. In this statistics instructional activity, students collect, graph and analyze data. They apply the concept of data and lines to finding the rate of change of the line created by...

Let's paint the town equal parts yellow and violet, or simply brown. Pupils calculate the amount of blue and red paint needed to make six quarts of brown paint. Individuals then explain how they determined the percentage of the brown...

Harness young scientists' knowledge of genetics with an engaging science activity. Students start by flipping a coin to determine the genotypes and phenotypes of two parent monsters, before using Punnett squares to...

Be shore to use this drifter resource. The third installment of a five-part series has learners using the NOAA's Adopt-a-Drifter website to track to movement of a drifter (buoy) in the ocean. Graphing the collected data on a map allows...

Second graders explore ways to use computers. They practice spelling words using Kid Pix software, write Bible verses and illustrate them. They read stories and illustrate and write about their favorite characters. They create pattern...

Students draw a model of the bunny problem which generates the Fibonacci Sequence, spirals generated from golden rectangles and golden triangles; identify the golden ratio in the human body, and find the Fibonacci numbers in nature.

New skills are developed as young scholars use graphing calculators and ranger technology to capture and graph the sequence of bounces a ball makes when dropped. After recording the height of four or more bounces, they use the collected...

Fe, phi, fo, fum. This activity leads pairs to find the ratio of consecutive terms of the Fibonacci sequence. The pairs find that the Fibonacci sequence can be found in many places. A discussion with the class shows that the ratios...
