Practice evaluating polynomial expressions at the same time you find Pythagorean Triples. Look for patterns and find examples when the "formula" does and doesn't work. Finally, verify the formula by proving the identity true.

Students investigate how friction affects the movement of a block across surface areas. They test five different kinds of surfaces—smooth surface, wax paper, a paper towel, course, and fine sandpaper. They predict and record the results...

Seventh graders calculate the area of certain cages at the Miami Metrozoo after observing a teacher demonstration.

Ninth graders identify and describe the x-intercept as the place where the line crosses the x-axis as it applies to football. They create their own differentiations to reinforce the distinction between the x-intercept and the...

Students compute areas of squares, rectangles, and so on and summarize the formulas for computing areas and explain how the formulas are derived and understand the reasoning behind them.

Seventh graders explain how things moving relate to energy.

Students randomly select dimensions for three geometric shapes (square, right triangle and circle). From the graphs they compare and contrast the graphical results of each shape.

Third graders draw and interpret simple scale maps, use maps to move around efficiently or plans to propose actions. They use of a compass to specify and find directions. They display and discuss a map of the local region.

By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: Perform unit conversions in both SI and English units, Explain the most common prefixes of SI units, and be able to write them in scientific notation.

A guide to support parents as they work with their students in unit conversions and problem solving with metric measurement.

This site allows you to type in various lengths you want to covert. For example, if you want to find out how many feet there are in 10 meters, you can submit that information and get the answer.

Practice US customary length, volume, and mass problems that require expressing measurements given in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...

This worksheet is designed for Grade 7 students. The students are expected to: i. understand both metric and customary systems of measurement ii. understand relationships among units and convert from one unit to another within the same...

Find out all about measurement in this test prep lesson exploring English and metric measurement. Students can compare metric and customary measurements using the conversion charts, assess how much they have learned using the interactive...

Students convert between metric and customary units of length in a series of self-check exercises and timed learning games.

What kind of unit conversion would you like to do? This site will allow you to do a multitude of conversions. Just click on the specific measurement you are needing to convert. It also provides a history of measurements and a chart of...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart focuses on reading a customary ruler to the eighth of an inch (introduction to sixteenth of an inch). Conversion in the customary system is introduced using ratios and proportions.

Practice converting a US customary measure of length to a smaller unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

In this lesson plan site, students will compare SI unit (metric) measurements of common household items and their English equivalents.
