Students take an imaginary hike in two opposite directions along a lake. They view and interpret satellite images and discuss the pros and cons of hydroelectric dams.

In this solar storm worksheet, students use images of a solar tsunami to determine the size and speed of the wave. This worksheet has 5 problems to solve.

High schoolers write and solve equations converting between metric and standard measurement as they travel southeast on the Al-Can Highway.

In this moon worksheet, students determine the angular size of the moon and draw a scaled model of the Earth, moon, and sun and given distances and positions. This worksheet has 4 problems to solve.

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

Students investigate the concept of velocity and apply it to the velocity of sound and measure the velocity of sound by measuring the echoes produced in a tube. They show their calculation of time and speed, and then conclude that sound...

Tenth graders study the metric system.  In this metric lesson students complete a lab activity and several metric worksheets. 

Fourth graders investigate measurement of linear and curved surfaces. In this math instructional activity, 4th graders discuss how to measure curved surfaces and work with a partner to measure various curved surfaces.

First graders use literature and hands-on activities with maps and globes to explain distance and tools used to measure distance. They select tools to measure various objects in the classroom, then apply those concepts to their map...

Students compare and contrast three different organisms that are considered gelatinous zooplankton. They describe how they fit into marine food webs.

Students identify organisms within the realms of pelagic, benthic and sea ice. They explain how these three interact with each other.

Young scholars examine the impact of climate warming on Arctic methane deposits. They identify natural methane processes and describe how this contributes to species extinction. They write reports on their findings.

Students identify taxa in Arctic benthic communities. They discover organisms that live in these Arctic areas. They analyze data compiled for the Canada Basin Benthic Samples, 2002.

Analyze data and make inferences about the trophic position of organisms in the Canada marine food web. After a review of the geography and formula, discuss results and write an essay to improve the understanding of Artic food webs.

Young scholars identify some of the attributes of China and Japan and compare and contrast the way Chinese, Japanese, and American artists represent nature in art. The lesson is for upper-elementary classrooms.

Young scholars practice converting units of measurement using the ladder method.  In this metric conversion lesson students practice converting metric measurements and filling out the worksheet. 

In this calculus worksheet, learners solve prolbem in which they estimate double integrals by using Riemann sums. The three page worksheet contains four questions. Answers are not included.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] For this learning module, students work with decimals as they convert kilometers into meters. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem [0:43] and a set of...

The learning activity reviews conversion from meters to kilometers. Students answer ten questions and can check their answers when finished.

This site allows you to type in various lengths you want to covert. For example, if you want to find out how many feet there are in 10 meters, you can submit that information and get the answer.

In this lesson students will explore the use of pictures and maps to represent physical spaces. We will explore the concepts of scale and conversions between pictures, maps and real-world units. Conversions between kilometers and miles,...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This metric measurement flipchart contains instructions and interactive activities on millimeters, centimeters, meters and kilometers.

Students teams determine the size of the caverns necessary to house the population of the state of Alabraska from the impending asteroid impact. They measure their classroom to determine area and volume, determine how many people the...

Metric units of length (millimeters, centimeters, meters, and kilometers) are reviewed and practice problems are provided.
