Pupils learn the concepts of momentum and its conservation, using the recoil of a cannon as an example. They examine how momentum is a vector, allowing its conservation to be applied to problems in 2 and 3 dimensions.

Twelfth graders identify the parts of an algebraic equation. They consider the many uses of algebra in daily life. They play a game, Algebra Match, where student pairs work to solve equations listed on index cards.

Young scholars work together to discover the relationship between the angle of catapults and the flight of different objects. They discover the heavier the object the more force is needed. They examine how engineers use this...

Students investigate the concept of curiosity. They use a story to create a context for the study. Students call upon the word illustrations for material to connect the concept of healthy curiosity that can be practiced. Then students...

Students explore the concept of ratios. In this ratios lesson, students use matchbox cars and models of spaceships to explore ratios. Students determine scale for the above mentioned objects in this lecture style lesson.

Young scholars relate the concept of gravity to math. For this algebra lesson, students define scientific terminology relative to gravity, weight and centripetal force. They measure the different dimensions of a cylinder as they...

Middle schoolers explore placing a satellite into orbit, then about forces needed to keep an object in orbit. They examine how satellites orbit in elliptical paths and about properties of ellipses. They learn Kepler's 3rd Law of...

Students identify the "sh"sound with the help of the Florida quarter. Students place the sounds placement within words with this kinesthetic activity. Students share various examples of consonant blends on the board.

Pupils examine gas production in "soil" samples through hands on activities and class discussions, to determine if the soil samples have contain living or non-living systems.

Students study the heart and the circulatory system. They practice taking their pulse. They create a model of blood cells and squeeze tennis balls to demonstrate just how hard the heart muscle works.

Pupils research how engineers and scientists generate linear and angular measurements with geometry to survey the Earth and Mars. They assess how geometric shapes affect navigation. A surveyor comes to the classroom and explains how he...

Young scholars practice locomotor patterns already introduced while reinforcing facts about each planet.

Students practice basic Palm skills. They play a game in which they start to write a story on their Palm and then pass it to the next student, who continues the story, and so on.

Students play the parts of robots and their controllers. In this robot lesson plan, students learn about robots, and use verbal commands to simulate how a robot would command to it's controller.

Students explore robots as it relates to artificial intelligence and mechanics. In this introduction to robotics lesson, students examine the technology related to design, research the concept of fabrication theory and the application of...

Young scholars create their own sundial and explore how to read it.

Third graders view a classroom simulation that demonstrates how the Earth's rotation creates day and night.

Third graders create a model of the moon and use a flashlight to illustrate the various stages of the moon.

Pupils explore planetary research and become familiar with the planets and their characteristics. They compare and contrasts planets and moons.

Young scholars define the word endeavor and then practice the art of self-discipline. They create character trait charts and discuss how strong character traits help students meet their future destinations.

Students, through a literature based assignment, explore basic modes of transportation and examine how different things move at different speeds.

Pupils listen to the song, The Wheels on the Bus. They are shown the book, This is the Way We Go to School. Afterward, they learn the phonetic principle of rhyming words.

Students listen to the song, The Wheels on the Bus. Instead of a bus, students attempt to sing the song using a different mode of transportation.

Students listen to the song, The Wheels on the Bus. They attempt to sing the song again, but change it for a tractor. They watch the book, A Visit With Grandma, through a projector, LCD panel, or big screen television and develop their...
