Students create a list of products with estimated prices. In this algebra instructional activity, students learn to write equations using variables. They match their created list with that of actual products and compare their...

In this linear regression worksheet, students solve linear regression problems using the TI-86 calculator. Detailed instructions on how to use the calculator are provided. This one-page worksheet contains seven problems.

Students work with given formulas to solve for specific variables. The calculation of the volume of a cylinder and the change in volume when there is a constant surface area is analyzed in this instructional activity.

Students examine how driving a hybrid car can save money and cut down on pollution.  In this hybrid vehicles lesson students complete an exercise that shows them how to work with proportions, percents, dimensional analysis and...

Students model projectile motion algebraically and graphically; and make predictions based on the quadratic algebraic model.

Fourth graders control variables to determine the effect on plant growth. They collect information by observing and measuring and construct simple graphs, tables, maps and charts to organize, examine and evaluate information.

Students participate in a challenge to construct a rotation sensor with the highest degree of accuracy and repeatability. They conduct computer analysis of their sensor using repeated trial.

Students are introduced to the concepts involved in technological designs. In groups, they design and build a technology related item using research to backup why they have chosen that specific design. They experiment by varying...

If you need a way to assess the concepts in your physical science class, use an extended set of worksheets as a midterm or final exam. It includes questions about density, physical and chemical matter, speed and velocity, weight and...

In this physics worksheet, students model the position, velocity and acceleration using mathematical formulas and a computer program. Then they interpret the parameters in each of the models. Students also complete the experiment and...

Working with real world applications of quadratic models, students solve four practical problems requiring the use of the quadratic equation. They are guided through the process by a series of questions following each problem.

Twelfth graders solve first order differential equations using the separation of variables technique. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders explain the connection between math and engineering. They brainstorm what engineers do in real life.

Students gain knowledge by measuring time and distance for solving unknowns in an equation. They also will design an airplane and chance to communicate mathematically by writing essays.

Coordinate planes and Cartesian graphing systems are the focus of this math lesson. Learners use video, internet activities, and engage in hands-on activities in order to explore coordinate planes. The materials needed for this lesson...

Formalize the notion of a function. Scholars continue their exploration of functions in the second lesson of the module. They consider functions as input-output machines and develop function rules for selected functions.

Eighth graders research box plots on the Internet. They gather real life statistics and analyze the collected statistics by making multiple box plots on the TI-83 calculator.

Students find the area and perimeter of rectangular figures. They use this information to find patterns and discover relationships between area and perimeter. Students apply and explain formulas relating to perimeter, area, and volume.

Eighth graders use a meter stick that is placed on a horizontal surface and an object is moved along it so that the shadow length can be measured at different distances from the light source. They solve real-world problems involving...

Searching for a relatively interesting way to demonstrate Charles' Law? Here is a activity in which pupils heat air inside a flask and then cool the flask to quickly cool the air. They make observations about what occurs during the...

If your pupils think a catalyst is a list of their cats, then this might be the lesson for you! Young chemists study the effect of temperature, catalysts, concentration, and particle size on reaction rates during four different...

Young chemists grow ionic crystals, metallic crystals, and supersaturated crystals in three different lab experiments. Observing these under a microscope allows pupils to compare the various structures. 

In this airplane worksheet, students compare the mass of an airplane to the mass of a paper clip airplane to see if the mass determines the best flight. Students complete 5 trials for each.

Seventh graders investigate how changes in the mass or height of a ramp can affect the change in potential energy. They discuss the concepts of work and energy, then using the four question strategy, they design an experiment that...

Eighth graders construct various machines and compare the work done by them.
