High schoolers explore the concept of translations. For this translations lesson, students discuss similarities and differences between images and pre-images. High schoolers apply translations to coordinates of figures. Students use...

Pupils construct a three-dimensional model of the Pantheon.

Students are introduced to the ecliptic, the zodiac and the apparent motions of the Sun, Moon and planets across the sky.

Students investigate the celestial sphere and the paths it takes in the solar system.

Students cut out the pattern of the Four-Wing Boomerang and trace it on to one half of the file folder. They practice throwing it.

Students explore Mount Shasta and various locations on Mars to examine ways geographical data can be represented. They study topographic maps and translating data from 2-Dimensions to 3-Dimensions.

Students test their knowledge of the Wright Brothers and their aircraft, and compute ratio of two numbers to determine the ratio between wing span and length of aircraft.

Students complete a worksheet and explore the parabola conic section during a web based activitiy. They answer questions based on their work as they make changes in the features of the parabola.

Students explore the different forms that water can take and conduct simple experiments to demonstrate some of its properties in each state. They watch a short video that illustrates some of these concepts.

Fourth graders read Mary's problem and make sure that they examine it. After some discussion, let the class work on the problem in their groups. They then take turns in putting a picture of their arrangement on the board.

Students interpret information and results in context while using words and symbols to generalize patterns. They use symmetry and angle properties of polygons to solve practical problems and identifying invariant properties under...

Seventh graders identify a polygon and classify them using congruent sides and number of edges and vertices. Students transform two dimensional objects into three dimensional objects.

Students practice graphing quadratic equations to find the vertex of quadratic functions. They determine if the graph opens upward or downward as well as convert quadratic equations to vertex form from polynomial form. A lab version is...

Students practice graphing quadratic equations. They work to solve and equation involving finding the vertex using given formulas. Once their points have been graphed, students determine the direction in which the angle opens. Worksheets...

Sixth graders draw parallel and intersecting lines to observe and examine the characteristics of alternate interior angles, vertical angles, corresponding angles, and supplementary angles. Through observation, they discover the...

In this phonics word search worksheet, students find the hidden 'a/magic e' words in the word search table. Students may use the word bank to assist them in their search.

For this airplane worksheet, students complete a crossword puzzle by figuring out the answers to 12 questions about the flying machines created by the Wright Brothers.

Students research inventors and inventions and their impacts. For this invention lesson, students research inventions and their affects in good and bad ways.

Students study the properties of fluids under different circumstances.  In this pressure fluids lesson students view a demonstration, complete an activity and describe what they learned. 

A comprehensive guide for learning all about plane shapes with definitions, properties, types, solved examples, and practice questions.

In this lesson on plane shapes, students will learn to identify 2D shapes by their attributes, and will apply these shapes to those in the world around them.

First graders begin to learn about plane shapes in Kindergarten. This lesson will serve as review of plane shapes' characteristics and extend into practice in categorizing shapes by defining attributes.

I love graphic organizers. My students will increase their vocabularies by learning more 2D shape terms through the use of a graphic organizer.

In this series of STEAM activities, students will discover the concepts of geometry through shape exploration and the creation of choreographic sequences. Another activity in this module will allow students to identify shapes by applying...
