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...

Young scholars determine where to buy the heaviest earthworms as they study invertebrates. They create a double bar graph of the results of the weight data.

In this math worksheet, learners measure 10 vertical pictures of toys using a paper clip. Students then measure the pictures using inches.

Second graders distinguish between and use nonstandard and standard units of measurement, use appropriate tools and techniques to measure length and width, and record and interpret data using graphs.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders use right triangle trigonometry to find the missing angle measure or side length.  The three page worksheet contains a combination of twelve multiple choice and free response problems. ...

Students make origami frogs to race. After the race they measure the distance raced, collect the data, enter it into a chart. They then find the mean, median, and mode of the data. Next, students enter this data into Excel at which time...

Fifth graders study environmental changes by examining the annual rings of a cross-section of a tree trunk. They access websites to complete a worksheet on the parts of a tree. They count the annual rings on a tree slice while observing...

Young scholars create a spreadsheet to record information about circular objects. They measure and record information from a variety of objects. Students calculate the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of each object. They find...
