A six-question interactive takes mathematicians to Lollipop Land where they manipulate lollipop trees to make equivalent ratios.  Question types include multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion. 

Historians have proven that as early as 1497 skilled navigators were using a kamal to sail across oceans. Scholars learn about navigation tools and astronomy before building their own kamals. They then learn how to use it to determine...

Students graph the height of others in centimeters and inches, find the slope of line in order to calculate the conversion factor between centimeters and inches.

Second graders, using one inch grid paper, create a foot long and a yard measuring tool.

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.

Students examine the importance of good quality safety gear. In this investigative lesson, students will tests various polymers, collect data, and analyze the data to determine which polymer is best for safety helmets. They will design a...

Fifth graders identify trees along a nature trail. Using a dichotomous key, 5th graders answer questions to aid in their identification of trees along a specified nature trail. Observations are recorded in their science journals. Sample...

Learners investigate measuring angles correctly through projectiles. In this geometry lesson, students launch a projectile to investigate the importance of how to measure an angle correctly and to explore trajectory. They collect...

Students measure the length, width and height of different materials.  In this design lesson students complete a lab to see what engineers need to consider when planning a structure.

Students roll a ball down a plank and measure the distance it travels. Students graph the distances the ball travels as they change the height of the incline (increase slope).

In this central tendency worksheet, students solve and complete 10 different problems that include measures of central tendency. First, they write down the names and heights of students in their class. Then, students explain how they can...

In this measuring lengths worksheet, students determine which units to use when measuring lengths, estimating lengths, and the errors made when measuring, Students estimate the lengths of each of the lines illustrate to the nearest unit....

Students investigate the growth rate of a man named Bob Wadlow.  In this growth rate of a man lesson, students determine if the growth rate of this particular man was normal or abnormal.  Students bring in data of their height...

In this volume and surface area worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the volume and total surface area of a given circle. Then, students find the height and radius of a cylinder...

Students experiment with varied balls to determine the bounce factor in centimeters. In this physics lesson, students experiment to find the height a ball must be dropped from the have the highest bounce rate. Students graph the results...

Learners construct three-dimensional models of the three pyramids at Giza. They research the building of the pyramids and record the height, base and angle measurements of each pyramid. They create a file of facts regarding the pyramids.

In this volume worksheet, students observe diagrams and extrapolate the correct items to plug into a formula for volume. They find the volume of triangular prisms, cylinders, cones, rectangular prisms, and rectangular pyramids. Four of...

In this statistics worksheet, learners solve and complete 13 different problems that include creating various box-and-whisker plots. First, they write a definition for mean, median, mode and range. Then students explain how to determine...

In this volume and surface area worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the volume of an isosceles trapezoid. Then, students find the volume and total surface area of a sphere. They...

In this perimeter and area worksheet, 9th graders solve 17 various types of problems, mostly word problems related to determining the area or perimeter of a geometric shape. They also determine the area and perimeter of shaded portions...

Young scholars drop water from different heights to demonstrate the conversion of water's potential energy to kinetic energy. They see how varying the height from which water is dropped affects the splash size. In seeing how falling...

Fifth graders investigate the formation and size of impact craters. In small groups, they conduct an experiment that involves dropping marbles into flour and measuring the impact from various heights and discussing their hypothesis and...

In this science worksheet, students identify and explain what each unit represents and how much each one equals. Then they use a metric ruler to locate each measurement and write it on the line. Students also locate the distance between...

Students find the circumference and diameter of several circles and calculate the surface area of cylinders. In this surface area of a cylinder lesson plan, students use rectangles and lids to make several cylinders. They calculate the...
