Pupils enhance fitness through the use of stations, working with another, and technology (e.g., digiwalkers).

Students participate in mapping an actual waterway. They include reach lengths, transects, compass reading, and scale determinations. They include windfalls, plant cover, types of streambed composition, and landmarks such as trees and...

Students reinforce and review dribbling skills taught in previous class lessons and compare their ability to dribble with different types of balls.

Students explore the making of circles and concepts related to them in geometry. The project is inquiry based will focus upon students making their own nametags. The construction is ideal for hands on students.

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...

Pupils study rectangles. In this math instructional activity, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.

Students play a math game to reinforce math skills. They calculate a problem, if they have the card with the correct answer, they hold that card up. All incorrect cards go to the student holding the correct answer or the teacher.

Learners participate in a math game. In the game, any math problem is allowed as long as the answer is between 1 to 100.

Students, in groups, estimate measurments and then select the tools needed and measure various items at Black Bayou Lake refuge.

Fifth graders determine which container made from a single sheet of paper has the greatest volume. They look the solutions made by three different students before working on their own examples.

Students work together to convert scale dimensions to determine the true size of the International Space Station. They create a full-scale outline of the station. They share their layout with the class.

Young scholars observe geometric shapes in their everyday lives.  In this middle school/high school mathematics lesson plan, students use their cell phone to record and publish their observations about the geometric shapes they...

Middle schoolers review the number of servings of each section of the food pyramid appropriate to eat per day.They work in small groups to place food in the correct locations on the food pyramid. They complete the process to music.

Students study the techniques of building a bridge. They explore different type of bridges and then plan and build a bridge to specified instructions. Students draw plans, keep a budget, and prepare balance sheets during their bridge...

Students dribble and trap a ball with their feet using control and different directions and pathways.

Students read and discuss the story The Corn Dolly by Terry Jones. The teacher shows the class a corn dolly and they need to design and construct furniture that is appropriately scaled for that specific dolly.

Fourth graders investigate a range of circles, each with a different radius, diameter and circumference and assemble this information in their search for relationships.The measurement of circles and the relationships to be found within...

Students expand their knowledge of quadrilaterals and identify basic symmetrical forms. Over three weeks, they explore the math, application, and discussion of symmetry. After conducting Internet research, students create symmetrical...

A classic problem looking at maximizing the area of rectangles given fixed perimeters. Uses graphing calculators to analyze data collected and to model a parabolic equation. Compiling class data provides a preliminary glance at families...

In this activity, students create geometric figures, and use analytic and coordinate geometry to investigate their attributes. They go through the process of proving that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

This multimedia Learn Alberta math resource looks at area and perimeter and how math is involved in the operations of a ranch. The accompanying interactive component lets students investigate a variety of rectangles to get a target...

Measurement, perimeter, and area skills are exhibited while students participate in these hands-on lessons. Each lesson plan includes objectives, methods, strategies, a description, and assessment techniques.
