Students analyze, create, and record repeating patterns. In this geometry lesson, students create shapes using patterns and keep track of the different shapes. They incorporate transformation and reflections into their patterns.

Students estimate how far they can run, jump, or hop in five seconds, then check their prediction.  For this estimation lesson, student predict how far they can run, hop, or jump in five seconds and then try it.

Students explore waves and wind. In this physical and earth science wave instructional activity, students participate in a wave making activity with an aquarium and a hair dryer. Students complete a data chart recording wave height and...

Students investigate and solve linear equations using slopes. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines using the slope and y intercept. They also find the slope by rewriting their equation in to slope-intercept form from standard form.

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

Here is a lesson plan that rocks! Young scientists choose a rock and list words that describe it. They estimate the mass of their rocks and rank them within a group. They measure their rocks for volume and write a story that somehow...

Students work in a cooperative group of three to solve algebraic equations with roles assigned for manipulator, recorder, and checker. They utilize hands-on learning materials imbedded in the lesson plan.

Fifth graders solve equations. In this algebraic equations lesson plan, 5th graders use the inverse operation to solve an equation. The teacher reminds students to perform the operation on both sides of the equation. This lesson plan...

First graders practice modeling addition. For this hands-on addition lesson plan, 1st graders are introduced to the Commutative Property of Addition and the Zero Property of Addition through modeling and the use of manipulatives. This...

Eighth graders examine linear equations by creating graphs from them.  In this graphing lesson, 8th graders read several linear equations and plot them on a graph with the help of their classmates.  Students find the slope of...

Pupils make chocolate chip cookies. In this cooking lesson, students follow a recipe by doing each step in sequence.

Fifth graders use arrays to show the meaning of multipication in selected situations. They practice using large and small arrays. The lesson has numerous activities, which gives students more opportunities to display academic growth.

Eighth graders investigate the concepts and combining them into polynomials. The teacher uses direct instruction for delivery. They can use Algebra to make this lesson hands-on for the benefit of kinesthetic learners.

Students solve quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students factor and graph linear and quadratic functions. They identify the standard and linear form of each equation.

Sixth graders investigate the concept of ratios and how they can be used to represent the comparison of quantities. The lesson is taught using a table or graph to compare two categories of data.

Students study taxes and the role that they place in our lives. In this economic lesson, students explore the reality of taxes, how they work, why we pay them, where the money goes and how to make the most of the money you pay into taxes...

Students study money and its value and usage in the world today. In this economic lesson plan, students research money as they learn what it stands for, why it is important, how it is valued and what it represents in the United States.

High schoolers explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals lesson, students play the "Chaos Game" via an applet. High schoolers place dots on the screen to recognize that they have created Sierpinski's Triangle.

Ninth graders investigate the concept of an inequality. They begin the lesson by covering relevant vocabulary. They write an inequality for each word problem given. Then they translate problems from words to algebraic inequalities.

Third graders investigate physics by conducting an experiment.  In this gravity activity, 3rd graders create a ramp using books and paper which they roll a marble down.  Students utilize the scientific method to predict and...
