Students study about Caimans-large reptiles that live in Manu. They create a model of the bite of the caiman in a class activity. They calculate the length of the caiman from the size of the model bite.

In this forensic science worksheet, students read a guide to analyzing fingerprint evidence and answer 3 short answer questions about it.

Young scholars investigate the concept of line symmetry and how to recognize it in different contexts. They record the number of symmetries when given problems to work on in class. They review the concept of congruence and how it relates...

Young scholars develop an intuitive definition for symmetry after viewing a PBS video. They examine asymmetrical patterns and demonstrate their knowledge by changing them to symmytrical.

Fourth graders examine halves of a whole and discover through activities that they must be exactly equal in size. Working with Geoboards and Dot-Paper Squares, the class practices finding halves that are both congruent and incongruent.

For this polar molecules worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by writing in the bond type, electron dot diagram, and the type of compound for the chemical compounds given.

Young scholars define normal distribution as it relates to the bell curve. In this statistics activity, students use the central tendencies of mean, median and mode to solve problems. They plot their data and draw conclusion from the...

Students observe butterfly images and then draw and paint their own design. They use this activity to explain symmetry.

Fourth graders examine and discuss the purposes and traditions of African ceremonial masks. They design and create African ceremonial masks using various materials.

Learners explore tessellations that are found in nature and everyday objects. They observe the works of M.C. Escher. Students create their own tessellations using pencil and paper.

Students apply an applique after learning about the process. Students accurately baste the appliques to the background fabric and hold them securely during the needle turn process.

Students utilize elements and principles of design and develop strong composition. They explore colors, contrast and simplification of forms. They sketch in pencil, then trace in chalk before applying their paint.

Learners create paper masks linking the function and purpose of masks in the past, with modern life.

Students, with the use of the Internet among various other resources, research/locate Polish folktales and re-tell the Polish folktales in their own words. In addition, they examine the art of Wycinanki, Polish paper cutting.

In this body plans and adaptations learning exercise, high schoolers will review the different types of symmetry found in organisms. Students will identify body parts as found on either the ventral or dorsal part of an animal. Then high...

Students view a right triangle displayed by the teacher. Students measure legs and the interior angles of the triangle. They look for a pattern or relationship between the legs and angles. Students use pegboards and string to create more...

Students calculate the area and perimeter of a basketball court. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similarity and congruence of geometric objects. They test conjectures and use it to solve problems.

In this bonding worksheet, students fill in 8 blanks with the appropriate terms about theories of bonding, they determine if 6 statements are true or false, they match 5 terms with their meanings and they solve 1 problem related to...

Fourth graders, using a straight edge, determine whether a point is inside or outside of a given figure. With worksheets, 4th graders practice analyzing geometric relationships such as parallel to, perpendicular to, etc.

Students analyze optical illusions from the packets, both individually and as a class. They create an original optical illusion design using pattern and repetition. They determine which color needs to be in the pattern.

Students examine the concepts of symmetry, rotations, reflections, translation, dialations, and tessellations and apply them to indigenous art. They also do Internet research and create artwork (painting, pottery, computer graphic design).

Students collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students define and calculate the range, median and standard deviation. They identify reasons for a skewed distribution.

Students complete a variety of activities to learn about crystals. In this crystals lesson plan, students paint with a crystal solution, pan for crystals, grow crystals, and more.

Learners explore how geometry is used on the composition of artworks by artists from different cultures. This lesson is equally suited for a Math or Art classroom at the late-elementary or early-middle school level.
