Pupils identify the concepts of density, mass, and volume that define the property of a substance. They also determine that the properties of materials, such as, density and volume, can be compared and measured by using rulers, balances,...

In this math assessment worksheet, students answer 5 multiple choice geometry questions. The assessment is on the fourth grade level.

In this radiation worksheet, students calculate the total shielding along several specific directions defined by the angles. This worksheet has 3 problems to solve.

Students calculate the volumes of regularly shaped objects from measurements of their dimensions. They use several formulas and measure different objects to calculate the density, volume, and mass of the objects selected or assigned.

In this online, interactive instructional activity, 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.    

Seventh graders gather data to determine the relationships between the base and height of rectangles with fixed perimeters and express the relationships using words and symbols. Students build rectangles with pipe cleaners. They create...

In this math worksheet, students read an informative chart about how to find the area of quadrilaterals. Students then answer 6 questions in which the area of quadrilaterals is calculated.

Students calculate the ratio of the height of the body to the height of the navel. They discover that the ratios are all approximately equal.

students identify and explore the connection between math and the bones of the human body. Students collect data about bones from their classmates and from adults, apply formulas that relate this data to a person's height, and organize...

Fifth graders record measurements and calculate the volume. They select and use appropriate units and procedures to measure volume # use tools such as technology to solve problems

Students find the perimeter and area of circles, triangles, and rectangles. In this perimeter and area lesson plan, the teacher gives students formulas for each shape and measurement and works through examples on the board. While no...

Students measure the lengths of provided leafs to the nearest millimeter. Students identify trends in the data as well as sourced of inaccuracy and formulate additional questions that could be investigated to enhance their understanding.

Students using clay and a toothpick, shape the clay into a "mountain" upon which they make a road that is the shortest in distance. They measure the length of their road and then make a road that is the longest in distance without...

Students measure their own foot and place the outline on a graph. They make connections between the size of their foot and the bar graph that represents it.

Students work in groups that are engaged in different activities at different times. They watch the video "Madagascar" and collect data pertaining to the Fish Eagle's arm spam. They work together to perform mathematical computations...

Students make observations about mealworms using hand lenses, rulers, and cotton swabs. Students complete their own mealworm observation chart, then they share their observations with the class. This is one station out of five in an...

Sixth graders use number cubes to explore volume of two-dimensional shapes. They roll a die and construct a shape using the numbers rolled as measurements of the sides. They estimate the volume of a given object, and then use the...

Students discover the relationship between lens shape and the formation of images in an experiment. They use three different size converging lenses and a diverging lens to calculate and compare the focal length of each. They graph and...

Learners observe how an electrical current passes through a conductor and the relationship between voltage and resistance.  In this investigative lesson students participate in an activity that allows them to see the correlation...

Students determine the muzzle velocity of projectile launcher. In this physics lesson, students compare the pendulum method and kinematic method in calculating the initial velocity. They analyze data and discuss results in class.

Students investigate conservation laws using a potato launcher. In this physics lesson plan, students measure angles, time and distance of the potato. They discuss applications of experiments like this.

Sixth graders apply knowledge of how to calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They determine why it is inappropriate to measure the area of land by its perimeter which is done in certain areas of New Guinea. They complete a...

Fourth graders, in groups, experiment with density and the displacement of water by creating and designing their own boats and seeing which boat holds the most centimeter cubes without sinking..

Young scholars conduct an experiment to determine if water level is affected by a change in oxygen level or air pressure.
