Students collect, organize, and display data using a bar graph, line graph, pie graph, or picture graph. They write a summary describing the data represented and compare the graph to another graph in the class.

Students observe and report that the moon can be seen sometimes at night and sometimes during the day. They describe how changes to a model can help predict how the real thing can be altered. Students explain the essential fact of the...

Students design and conduct an experiment to discover the role of direct sunlight on plants during germination and after germination. They plant corn and lima beans in small containers which they place in direct sunlight from a window...

Fourth graders measure cups, quarts, and liters.

Fifth graders use the Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers to compare temperature readings. They use the Internet to find the temperatures of selected cities. After data is collected for five days, 5th graders graph the temperatures.

Seventh graders experiment with measurement as it relates to the algorithm for dividing fractions. In this fractions activity, 7th graders work in groups to establish how many post-it notes it takes to fill an 8 X 11 piece of paper....

In this online, interactive worksheet, 6th graders complete a pre-test regarding volume.  Students complete 10 multiple choice questions and click at the bottom of the page to check their answers.    

Learners add or subtract fraction parts of mixed numbers before adding or subtracting the whole number parts. In this fractions lesson plan, students learn to use a ruler to help them add and subtract fractions with like denominators.

Second graders determine when estimates and exact totals are appropriate in dealing with money. They simulate keeping a checking account over a period of time and keep a checkbook ledger to record deposits and expenses.

Students apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve real-world problems. They draw diagrams based on written descriptions to calculate the examples.

Young scholars complete a lab in order to discover if the length of a viewing tube, its diameter, or the distance from an object affect the type of data collected and the resulting graph.

Students create a scrapbook about Nebraska history focusing on Post Office murals. They choose their favorite murals and write a story to go along with the mural. In groups, students present their murals to the class and visit the...
