The legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's life and message is just as important today as it was in his lifetime. Introduce elementary learners to the movement for civil rights with a timeline of Dr. King's life, as well as...

Be shore to use this drifter resource. The third installment of a five-part series has learners using the NOAA's Adopt-a-Drifter website to track to movement of a drifter (buoy) in the ocean. Graphing the collected data on a map allows...

Precise measurements make the job easier! One of the challenges when using an inclined plane for testing comes from pupils not using exact measurements. They often rely on books that slide or different ramp lengths when experimenting. By...

Did you know scientists can tell the age of an asteroid by looking closely at its craters? This final activity of a six-part series focuses on two asteroids, Gaspra and Ida, in order to demonstrate the concept of dating asteroids....

Students derive the six trigonometric identities. For this trigonometry lesson, students review the parts of a right triangle and use the Pythagorean theorem as a guide to find the trig identities. They find sine, cosine and tangent ratios.

In this division worksheet, 5th graders divide with two digit divisors to find the quotients in 6 word problems. They work with three and four digit dividends.

In this comparing numbers worksheet, students use the table for 'How Many Miles to Chicago' from the cities of Atlanta, Buffalo, Boston, Lexington, and Baltimore. Students use the table to compare 3-digit numbers and solve the six word...

Students calculate the inverse variation, and speed given the formulas. In this algebra lesson, students investigate properties of conics, focusing on the hyperbola. They identify the distance between the directrix and other parts...

Students use the point slope formula to calculate the slope and equation of a line. In this algebra lesson, students identify point on a coordinate plane using a robot. They differentiate between the different quadrants a they follow the...

In this Euler's method worksheet, students use Euler's method to determine one-second time intervals in a rate problem. They explore functions to estimate rate changes in small time intervals. This two-page worksheet contains...

In this computation and estimation worksheet, students take turns with a partner, read the first problem, and determine if the problem requires estimation or computation and circle the matching letter. Students then solve the word...

In this word problems instructional activity, students solve twenty-eight motion/rate word problems.  The formula used in solving rate problems is provided at the top of the instructional activity.  Answers are provided at the...

Learners perform unit conversion. In this algebra lesson, students calculate the distance and speed of a solar car. They graph their result as speed versus distance and analyze it.

For this measurement worksheet, students solve measurement word problems using a map in kilometers. Students complete 14 word problems.

Students identify integers as rational and irrational numbers. For this algebra lesson, students measure and construct number lines using positive and negative integers. They convert between decimals and fractions.

In this accumulation function worksheet, students find the graphical relationship between two functions. They describe the relationships between the graphs of a function when accumulation begins at 0 and at 2.

In this addition word problems worksheet, learners line up the two digit numbers to add the numbers and solve the six word problems.

In this dividend worksheet, students divide to solve 6 word problems. All problems have 4 or 5 digit dividends. Problems 1 and 2 have been started for students.

In this algebra worksheet, 5th graders solve 6 word problems by finding the value of variable in function tables. They use the information to solve the problems.

For this measurement worksheet, learners solve word problems based on line segments on a map. Students complete 22 problems total.

Students calculate the speed, rate and distance. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the area and perimeter of polygons. They perform an activity with a CEENBoT and calculate the distance and speed.

Students differentiate between exponential and logarithmic functions. In this algebra lesson, students use logarithmic properties to solve equations. They identify growth and decay of graphs.

In this solving equations in one variable worksheet, students solve 38 simple and complex equations. Students then write and solve equations for 6 word problems.

In this distance worksheet, students determine total distance and time. They identify an equation as convergent or divergent. This two-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.
