Curated OER
Polynomials Functions
High schoolers factor polynomials and linear functions and apply concepts of the fundamental theorem of algebra to solve problems. They graph their solutions and analyze the graph.
Curated OER
Protein Synthesis Activities
Students participate in a teacher-guided activity to teach about protein synthesis. Student roles include one person as the DNA molecule, another is a single stranded sequence of complementary mRNA.
Curated OER
Investing
Students collect data on investments and draw conclusions. In this algebra lesson, students analyze exponential graphs as they relate to money. They discuss the cause of an account balance being high or low.
Curated OER
Protein Synthesis Activities
Pupils compare the process of protein synthesis in an analogy. They simulate the process of protein synthesis kinesthetically using index cards and write a paragraph to explain the process.
Curated OER
Mathematics in Robotics
Learners build and create using math. In this geometry lesson plan, students differentiate between congruent and similarity as they observe polygons. They create robots with different functions using properties of geometry.
Curated OER
Animating Motion
Students apply what they recall about objects in motion by animati ng sequences of pictures that model a set of physical conditions. They animate the orbital motions of the Earth, the space shuttle, and the Moon based on calculations of...
Curated OER
Sink or Swim
Students define density and explain how to determine the density of an object. Students participate in a demonstration that shows the differences in the densities of different liquids and how they affect the liquid's physical properties.
Curated OER
The Probability that God Exists
In this probability activity, students are presented with how a scientist calculated the chance that God exists. References to scientists, mathematicians, and books are made.
