Most people claim they can tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi. Scholars conduct a fun experiment to test that claim! Once learners collect their data, they analyze the results and determine if the statistics are significant.

A discussion begins a lesson on comparing numbers. Pupils explain how they can show a number, then visit math centers to explore number-making tools. A story read-aloud of More or Less by Stuart Murphy identifies language for...

Discover the nutritional wonders of apples and get to know Johnny Appleseed with a plethora of learning experiences that cover subjects math, history, English language arts, health, and arts and crafts. Activities include an apple...

Future statisticians and potential psychics first conduct an experiment to collect data on whether a person can tell if someone is staring at them. Statistical methods, such as hypothesis testing, chi-square tests, binomial tests, and...

Fourth graders complete a taste test of different sandwiches, rate them, and then put them in a ratio graph. In this ratio lesson plan, 4th graders write what they learned about ratios after this activity.

"Statistics are no substitute for judgment" - Henry Clay. Young mathematicians use provided statistics from a soda taste test to explain why conclusions are faulty. They devise a new test that would be more appropriate than the one given.

Do you like apples? Create a taste test for your first and second grade learners. Cut red, green, and yellow apples, and have learners select their favorite. After tasting all of the apples, they collect data and graph the results with...

Clay itself sinks, but clay boats float. Why? Young engineers build clay boats to learn about buoyancy. They test the weight the boats can hold using washers and then tweak their designs to make improvements, following the engineering...

Students solve problems using graphs to list and interpret data. Each student construct his or her own graph using art paper and markers. They be given a set of information to apply to their graphs and interpret their findings.

Students identify and name different geometrical shapes. In this math lesson plan, students distinguish odd from even numbers. They describe the properties of 2 and 3 dimensional objects.

In this algebra lesson, students sample food and identify acceptance sampling. They create specific plans to meet specific situations as they sample the food. There are 6 questions.

Students explore the concept of models. In this model instructional activity, students examine 3-dimensional models of various objects and body parts to better understand the natural world.
