Written for an exploration of shoreline ecosystems on Sheffield Island, this gives ecology or marine biology buffs a hands-on experience. Using GPS or visual triangulation techniques, they lay transect lines on a high and a low energy...

Have your class predict whether objects will sink or float in water. Learners consider a data table of mass, volume and whether the object sank or floated. They develop an evidence-based explanation for the results.

Students create a Power Point scrapbook that compiles memorabilia representing the life of Jay Gatsby. They read the novel, "The Great Gatsby" and conduct internet research using the "American Twenties" website. In small groups, they...

After reading and discussing several personal narratives written by women in the 1920's, class members write a personal narrative of their own about a time in their lives they felt controlled. Sample narratives can be accessed through...

Pupils engage in a lesson that has them practice solving equations using multiplication and division. They practice solving problems using the properties needed and then students practice changing word problems into an equation.

In this math worksheet, students give examples of functions that will satisfy given conditions. Students tell the tabulations for a given function. Students use the definition of a derivative to compute the inverse of a function. they...

In this math worksheet, pupils determine if the definite integral of given functions exist. They use a Taylor polynomial to approximate given values. Students express the arc length of a graph on a polar coordinate system as an integral.

For this definite integral worksheet, students use substitution to simplify integrals. They find the values of the upper and lower points and interpret points found on a graph. Students solve this two-page worksheet.

In this points of discontinuity worksheet, students observe graphs and label them as points of discontinuity and non-differentiability. They identify the derivatives of functions. This one-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.
