Students analyze, create, and record repeating patterns. In this geometry lesson, students create shapes using patterns and keep track of the different shapes. They incorporate transformation and reflections into their patterns.

Learners calculate ratio and proportion. In this unit rates activity, students estimate using proportions and find their errors in doing so. They calculate unit rates and define the concept of unit rates.

Hands-on investigation of Riemann sums becomes possible without intensive arithmetic gymnastics with this interactive lesson plan. Learners manipulate online graphing tools to develop and test theories about right, left, and...

Students participate in activities the connect measurement to geometry, statistics, estimation, and the real world. They collect measurements from their elbow to the tip of their middle finger and make a box plot of the data as well as...

High schoolers define accuracy and precision, and differentiate between the two terms, apply the concepts of accuracy and precision to a given situation and correctly apply the concept of significant figures to measurement and...

Students examine collections. In these real-world collections lessons, students examine and describe buttons and shells. Students will then sort, classify, and graph items according to various indicated descriptors.

Students compare and contrast the various types of rocks on each continent. In groups, the calculate the rock ages and types to determine if the continents, in their opinion, were joined at one time. They develop two imaginary...

Students manipulate negative and positive numbers. In this integers lesson plan, students move through three activities exploring negative and positive whole numbers. A number line, cardboard function representation, and solving...

Students build a Lego design and then work with a partner to reproduce that design. They guide the building of the reproduction by description only and then check their work.

Students sort objects based on one characteristic. They define the term "attribute" and give examples of attributes of objects. Students explain their reasoning for sorting objects into groups.

Students explore the concept of big and small. They collect objects from the classroom, sort them by size, and create a graph using Duplo stacking blocks.

Pupils utilize LEGO's to replace cards for a game that replicates "Go Fish".

Students sort Lego Duplo pieces after determining the attributes to classify them by. They work in pairs to sort a group of Duplo pieces and explain their process to others.

Students are introduced to the function and design of the following Lego pieces: beams, bricks, plates, axles, tires, hubs and bushings. They then work with a partner to build something using only these pieces.
