Be sure your young mathematicians can work with scientific notation. Scholars first watch a video to review scientific notation. They then complete a worksheet requiring conversions and operations with scientific notation.

Discover how to find the value of an interest-bearing account. Individuals watch a video to learn how to use exponential functions to model compound interest. After the video, they complete a learning exercise of problems on compound...

Explore theorems involving circles. Individuals watch a video that reviews the basic parts of a circle. They learn about circle theorems and compete a worksheet of problems that use these theorems — putting their skills to work right away!

The sixteen problems in this resource present opportunities for pupils to practice substituting into algebraic expressions. Scholars evaluate algebraic expressions for given values of the variables. In a few cases, class members need to...

Two videos show first how to perform a rotation, given the center, the angle, and the direction of rotations. Individuals then see how to find what the rotation is from one figure to another. Pupils practice doing both in seven problems...

Tracing paper is not just for art anymore — pupils can use it to find reflected images, too! Two videos show how to reflect images using tracing paper and find the reflection between the pre-image and image. Learners perform reflections...

Viewers learn how to identify and perform a variety of transformations with a video that provides seven items on transformations. Pupils demonstrate their understanding of dilations, reflections, rotations, and translations. The video...

Order the data within a stem-and-leaf display. Pupils take data and create and ordered stem-and-leaf diagrams, including the key. Participants take their data and determine answers about the information. Class members then find...

Discover a new application of the Pythagorean Theorem. Learners prove and apply the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem in the 17th lesson in a 25-part series. The examples ask learners to verify right triangles using the converse...

When the sun's rays can't reach the producers in a food web, where does all the energy come from? Extreme environments call for extreme food sources. Young scientists investigate creatures that appear to get their energy from methane...

High schoolers view examples of a ray, opposite rays, collinear rays, angles, and straight angles. They discuss and demonstrate how to use a protractor and complete worksheet problems on rays and angles.

A six-page packet walks, or bends learners through angles that combine to create triangles. Definitions are given for right triangles, obtuse and acute triangles. They draw angles according to directions, using a protractor to meet the...

In this vertical angles explorations activity, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different types of problems. First, they use a ruler and a protractor to measure the angles illustrated. Then, students complete the tables next to each...

Sixth graders interpret, create, and display data in a circle graph. In this circle graph lesson plan, 6th graders use a compass, protractors, pizza boxes, and more to create a circle graph and analyze the data they put into it.

Students conduct an experiment in order to observe the typical downward growth of a maize root. They become familiar with the root's growth patterns to use as a control for comparison in other experiments.

Young scholars use a cardboard cutout with movable handles to create a homemade protractor. They move the handles to create different angles. They identify the angles and discuss their differences.

Your class examines a series of shapes and discusses how we know that they are not circles. For this way, you begin to acquaint them with the properties and parts of this geometric figure. Then, teach them how to use a protractor to...

Students investigate why the North Star was important for navigation, how stars move across the night sky, how to locate the North Star, how to make a crude sextant, and how to determine latitude using a sextant and the North Star. They...

Students identify names of angles. They use a large clock to demonstrate angles using certain times of day. Given a geoboard, students create figures with acute, right, and obtuse angles.

In this math learning exercise, learners use protractors to measure each of a set of angles. This is a learning exercise generator, the teacher controls the minimum and maximum angles students are presented with as well as whether or not...

For this refraction through a circular disk worksheet, students are given a diagram of a circular disk of leaded glass with light striking it. Students use the diagram to find the angle of incidence of the light, the angle of refraction,...

In this geometry worksheet, students use a ruler and a protractor to measure the lengths of the line segments and size of the angles that make up a drawing of a Christmas tree.  The one page worksheet has one problem.  Answers...

In this designing a periscope worksheet, students follow the directions to collect materials and make a periscope. Students answer 5 questions.

Young scientists study light reflection and refraction as they determine the critical angle, the rainbow angle, and color separation in rainbows. Teams record the data they collect in a shared spreadsheet and discuss results with the class.
