In this shapes and designs worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different types of problems. First, they fill in the first two columns of the table show with their shapes. Then, students measure the interior angles of each...

Students properly leap and measure their distance. In this leaping lesson plan, students practice leaping for accuracy and proper form. Students estimate their leaps and measure with rulers. Students determine distance covered by the...

Students make accurate measurements and calculations of measuring the area an perimeter of a section of the floor accordingly. They use appropriate measurement and calculation strategies to write a complete a clear explanation for how...

Students convert between the different metric units after reading the Fairy Tale of King Henry. They measure various candies in a baggy using the width of their index finger. They record results to the nearest index finger width on a...

Students participate in experiments at five stations to practice measurement. In this measuring lesson, students are presented different produce and objects and must measure with an appropriate tool. Students use metric and customary...

Eighth graders participate in an experiment that emulates a sonar signal bouncing off the ocean floor. They determine how the ocean floor is measured by the length of time it takes for the sonar signal to return. They work with a wooden...

Scholars explore the relationship between circumference and diameter. Groups of learners measure the diameter and circumference of round objects and record their data on a given worksheet. They then input the data into their graphing...

Students find examples of the Golden Ratio on the human body through measurement. Additionally, students learn about the use of the Golden Ratio and the Golden Rectangle in art and architecture. A very interesting lesson for the students!

Sixth graders identify benchmark angles as they are embedded into a circle grid. They observe the teacher using an angle ruler and complete a Star Spangled worksheet, play the game Tomb Robbers, and as a class discuss their game winning...

Fourth graders practice finding the perimeter of shapes.  In this measurement lesson, 4th graders review the meaning of perimeter and work in groups to draw polygons with differing perimeters.  Students share their polygons...

Give pupils a ruler and this instructional activity so that they can practice measuring down to the quarter inch! Drawings of six various objects are depicted for them to apply their measurement skills to. The assignment concludes with...

Students explore the historical sequence of cultures throughout history. They demonstrate the ability to organize events in chronological order and demonstrate how time is measured and annotated.

Eighth graders investigate the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas in a closed container. They measure the height of the water in their beaker/container, conduct their experiment, and create a graph to illustrate their data.

Students solve quadratic equations and identify functions. In this algebra lesson, students graph parabolas and identify properties describing the shape of the parabola. They find the vertex and rewrite the equation in standard form.

Sixth graders use newspapers to investigate fractions. They work in small groups to categorize articles, measure them with the grid transparency, and calculate the values represented. Afterward, they write a reflective essay on the role...

Learners identify different types of functions and units of measurements. In this statistics lesson, students will collect data, graph their data and make predictions about their data. They plot a linear regression graph.

Experiment with optical resolution using an inquiry-based lesson plan. Young researchers calculate fellow classmates' optical resolutions. They apply the information to understand the inner workings of optical instruments.

Part two in a series of four explores the effects of climate on succession or the changing of plant species in a forest. Groups review how to identify trees and then spend a day in the field collecting extensive data on trees to...

Young astronomers learn about the Big Bang Theory and redshift through a hands-on activity in the last installment of a three-part series. Participants draw dots on balloons and then inflate them to model how galaxies moved farther apart...

Students plan and build a ramp designed for maximum distance a car can travel. In this physics and data collection math instructional activity, students work in groups to design a ramp using various household materials. Students test...

Fourth graders experiment to determine how overpopulation effects ecosystems specifically plants. In this ecosystem lesson, 4th graders conduct an ecosystems experiment after listening to Claire Daniel's, Ecosystems. They watch a video,...

Students explore the idea of having Benchmarks to estimate the length of given objects. Students demonstrate acquired knowledge of the basic units of length by making reasonable estimates. Students create a personal benchmark.

In this fraction worksheet, students use twizzlers to demonstrate various equivalent fractions. Students complete ten greater than, equal to, and less than questions.

Students explore tessellations. In this shapes and geometry lesson, students describe the attributes of many of the shapes displayed on an Elmo. Students create examples of tessellations using pattern blocks.
