Students explore and locate "The Stans" in Central Asia to create, write and illustrate maps, graphs and charts to organize geographic information. They analyze the historical and physical characteristics of Central Asia via graphic...

Two versions of this handout are provided, the second with more detailed information on the same topics. Chemistry aces survey chemical reactions, heat energy transferred, and the action of enzymes by reading this resource. You can...

Computer-interfaced motion detectors are required to carry out this inquiry. It is a new twist on exploring motion with plunger carts: they are set back-to-back and then propelled away from each other. Their velocities are measured, and...

Allow your class to figure out what they will be studying through an inquiry-based anticipatory set that involves analysis of mystery documents and practice with making inferences. The lesson plan document includes a detailed description...

Here is a game that will help your young mathematicians practice number recognition and writing numbers. Played with a spinner or dice, individual learners or a pair will play this fun number game. They will roll the die or spin the...

Calories are not tiny creatures that sew your clothes tighter every night, but what are they? A science lesson, presented at multiple levels, has learners experiment with heat, heat transfer, and graph the function over time....

First graders use a graph to answer questions about the frequency of words. Using rhymes, they fill in a chart about the data they collected. In groups, they use their word wall words to identify them in a book.

Learners practice graphing relationships between variables by studying topics such as exponential growth and decay. They conduct a series of numerical experiments using a computer model and a variety of physical experiments using mold,...

Students are introduced to the given problem and describe in their own words the situation represented in a bar chart and tally chart. They then use a bar chart and tally chart to make sensible predictions.

Students observe the axis of a graph on the board and add the title and axis labels. They plot two points on the graph and join the two with a line and work to describe the story in each of the graphs.

In this line graph worksheet, students read through the problems about graphing and line graphs. Students select the best answer to solve the 10 online questions.

Students use NASA satellite data of optical depth as a tool to determine volcanic activity on Reunion Island during 2000-2001. They access the data and utilize Excel to create a graph that has optical depth as a function of time for the...

First graders work with a piece of text to become more fluent in reading. This lesson helps children practice how to read faster. They work on reading fluency through repeated readings under pressure. In turn, more words read per...

Students read orally to increase their reading speed and fluency in this lesson. They listen to the teacher model expressive and fluent reading. They then practice reading orally with a partner. The partner times their reading with...

In this math review worksheet, 4th graders read a graph and identify the amount of money earned during a specific week. Then they solve a word problem using multiplication or addition. Finally, students identify which angle shown is best...

Student increase their reading fluency through the use of various strategies. After reviewing chunking, decoding, and rereading, students complete an initial read of a novel text. Working with a partner, they read complete a timed...

Pupils increase their reading fluence through repeated reading of a selected, leveled passage. Working in pairs, students read a grade level appropriate text in one-minute intervals. After reading they determine their fluency through a...

Second graders read a book as stated in the lesson and then reread the first two pages aloud modeling how not to read, without fluency and with no expression. Then they reread the same two pages again fluently and with expression and...

Students collect and graph data. In this algebra lesson, students describe, interpret and analyze data. They follow a 400 meters race and plot the coordinates of the course. They graph a line to represent the data of the course.

Students experiment with distance, speed, and motion by graphing the motion of a bowling ball. For this distance versus time graphing lesson, students observe the speed and distance of a rolling ball and graph their findings. They then...

Students graph linear equations on a Cartesian plane. After describing data tables and their use, students explore how the information from a table can be used to create a line graph. They discuss reasons for plotting a minimum of...

Students examine words and phrases associated with World War I as an introduction the era. They explore the legacy of World War I by reading and discussing "The War to End All Wars If Only." Students write obituries for fallen World...

Students explore the effects of a declining fossil fuel system would have on the world. They read the line graph and other information to answer questions about fossil fuels. Students use mathematics to analyze graphical data and...

Students research inventions that have been created. In this historical technology lesson, students read the Harcourt Brace social studies textbook and discuss how inventors used graphs to display data. Students create a table to write...
