Learners identify the stages of the water cycle. They listen to the book "Magic School Bus: Wet All Over," examine the Build Your Own Water Cycle website, predict and measure the amount of water in a jar for a week, and read a short play...

Students measure various dimensions of a male and a female dolls body and scale them proportionally to average human measurements. They calculate the appropriate scale factor (magnitude) to enlarge their doll and apply that scale factor...

Students review solving equations. They solve an inequality and discuss how to graph it. Students work together on one inequality and then graph two on their own. This lesson contains links to a PowerPoint and a worksheet.

Middle schoolers review the definition and rules for equivalent fractions. Additionally, they are introduced to equivalent ratios. They write examples of ratios from the board, and they come to the board to write the correct equivalent...

Pairs of pupils get together in order to measure the heights and lengths of their shadows. They use these measurements in order to predict the height of other friends in class. A good activity to practice measuring things that cannot be...

Learners are introduced to the concept of imaginary unit and complex numbers. They are taught how to add and subtract complex numbers. Students define a complex number. They comprehend at least two applications of complex numbers....

In this measurement worksheet, students convert centimetres to millimetres and millimetres to centimetres. Normal objects are used for examples of measurement.

The first 12 problems on this practice page require prealgebra participants to convert units of length. In the next eight problems, they compare lengths using inequality symbols. There are two functions tables to complete and then two...

On this measurement hanodout, individuals review how to make conversions with customary units of length. They make conversions, compare lengths, and reason which unit of measure they would use for given items. To conclude the assignment,...
