Students, in groups, determine the volume of a box large enough to hold a million dollars. They calculate the dimensions of a bill and the volume of the money.

Fourth graders practice making patterns using Unifix cubes and identify, analyze, and determine rules for describing numerical patterns involving operations and nonnumerical growing patterns. They also find an example of a pattern in...

Students work with patterns to develop formulas that will help them determine total cost. In this patterning lesson, students watch a video about an NBA trainer. (not included) They work in groups to access the assigned Internet websites...

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

Young scholars investigate how to create a free standing structure. In this mathematics lesson, small groups of students demonstate how to build the tallest structure while spending the least amount of money on materials.

Students determine the cost of a t-shirt using a variety of mathematical operations to solve problems. Then they use a spreadsheet to calculate the cost of lettering a t-shirt and display this information in a graph.

Students, in groups, measure and record each other's height. They identify measurement conversion methods and use online resources to convert measured heights to multiple systems.

Middle schoolers examine fractions in this lesson. They practice with how to reduce and perform operations on fractions.

Students analyze the Order of Operations. They play a game to explore Order of Operations and observe a PowerPoint presentation slide sow. They generate patterns and functions to represent and solve problems. Students model and solve...

Students make fudge after reading fractional values in recipes and finding equivalent fractions to those presented in the recipes. They study measurement abbreviations.

Students explore the ways Geometry can help solve probability problems. Students describe platonic solids and practice calculating probability using an online resource. They construct dice with various numbers of sides to demonstrate...

In this number sentence worksheet, 3rd graders look at 2 game boards and find as many number sentences as they can that are hidden in each one. Students put their answers on the lines provided.

Young scholars convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit. In this converting lesson, students explore temperature conversions. They use a thermometer to determine the temperature of given items.

Second graders become familiar with need strategies for computation of money problems and estimating sums. In this computation lesson, 2nd graders solve real life problems to understand estimation and money problems.

For this exponent rules worksheet, students solve and complete 6 various types of problems. First, they complete the chart shown by first giving the question. Then, students expand the question and find the answer using the rules for...

In this online math problems worksheet, students complete a variety of assignments including the concepts number sequences, shapes and grids, number calculations and substituting whole numbers for letters in equations. Students complete...

Fifth graders practice solving problems.  In this fraction and decimal lesson, 5th graders recognize the relationship between fraction and decimals.  Students estimate problem results and write expressions to use for problem...

In this sedimentation worksheet, students use the current rate of sediment deposit by the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon to answer questions about the changes taking place in the canyon. They graph the amount of deposit over 75 years...

In this distances in space worksheet, students learn about astronomical units and light years as measurements for great distances. Students use both of these units of measurements to solve five problems.

Upper graders identify the major characteristics of a wetland. They explore the human factors that change a wetland and write a descriptive paragraph about wetlands. This comprehensive lesson also has an interactive "Watershed Game"...

Students evaluate snack foods based on calories and fat. In small groups, they use this information to make informed and wise food choices. Students graphically represent the fat in a food by measuring the equivalent of the food fat with...

Students build a scaled model of the solar system. In this space science lesson plan, students arrange them according to their distances from the sun. They analyze each planet's unique features such as density and relative gravity.

Learners explore the relationship between mass, volume and density. They use model boats to discover how changing mass and volume affect density. This is a very engaging lesson which provides great demonstrations and hands-on activities.
