Learners develop and create a production company and produce a fall event that demonstrates what they have learned in various subject areas. STudents create stories, complete a venn diagram comparing fall and summer, graph and measure...

Students explore botany by researching plants in class. In this tree identification activity, students examine a group of leaves and list the different characteristics before guessing what types of trees they came from. Students read...

In this similarity learning exercise, students use the characteristics of similar figures to determine the length of one side of a polygon, the height of a tree, or the shortest side of a triangle. They also identify similar figures. ...

Fifth graders diagram and label the parts of a tree. For this lesson on how trees obtain food, 5th graders diagram and label the parts of a tree, and determine the diameter, height, and age of a tree.

Third graders adopt a deciduous tree in September, and begin regular observations of their tree. They create a timeline to show how leaves change color and conduct a science experiment to illustrate color change.

Students discover math measurements by creating a skit with classmates.  In this geometry lesson, students utilize objects in a paper bag and index cards to create a short skit focusing on debate over the size of the objects....

Learners construct a weather vane using their knowledge of some geometric shapes. In this weather lesson, students work in pairs to create a weather vane in order to measure wind direction. Learners follow precise...

In this bluebirds project worksheet, students are given directions on completing a project about bluebirds including measurements, scientific method questions, data entry, and more. Students complete 15 exercises.

Pupils investigate the growth of seedlings planted in egg cartons in the classroom. Measurements are taken as the plants grow and charts created to organize the data.

In this measurements worksheet, students read the park requirements and draw a park in the grid provided. They then write down the square unit area of 5 park features.

In this exponents and prime factorization practice worksheet, learners sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve six story problems.

Word problems are a wonderful way to connect math and the real world. However, I've never seen a 12 centimeter-long apple tree. Aside from some odd word choices, this instructional activity provides children with ten problems to solve by...

In this math word problems worksheet, students complete math word problems dealing with maple trees, syrup, and a sugar bush. Students complete 6 problems where they click on links and that contain growth rate, percentages, measurement,...

Young scholars examine how trees are measured and the different methods used.  In this density lesson students divide into groups and practice the different methods.

Students use formulas to design and create a table.  For this calculations lesson students create basal measuring tapes that will be used to measure woodlot stocking levels. 

Students utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula to...

Students pick a tree they see everyday. They measure the tree's circumference and estimate its height using similar triangles. Students are introduced to Computational Science. They use computers and calculators to compute values...

In this geometry worksheet, students differentiate between direct and indirect measurements. They create a table with their findings. There are 9 questions.

Students review their prior knowledge on biomes and ecosystems. At a local Christmas tree farm, they work together in groups to identify the changes occuring in the area. They participate in solving a mystery in which they determine the...

In this addition activity, students add amount of liquid measures in 40 problems. They add liters and convert the sums to milliliters. They add gallons without making a conversion. They enter the sums on-line and print the pages as needed.

Students study tree leaves to complete the activity, In this tree leaf experiment instructional activity, students observe, measure, and sort tree leaves individually, in groups, and in relationship to the entire tree.

In this recycling learning exercise, students conduct a brief investigation regarding the recycling of paper in their classroom and respond to 5 questions that enable them to see the number of trees they are saving.

In this math worksheet, learners will work in small groups to measure the height of objects, such as trees, using their shadows. Students will be able to determine heights of objects that cannot be directly measured.

Students estimate the height of trees on the school campus, and measure their circumferences. They develop a map of trees on the school site, conduct their measurements, and record the results on a data table.
