Sixth graders determine appropriate scales when graphing data. In this graphing lesson, 6th graders use an the applet "Graph It" to determine what is an appropriate scale for their data.

Students create a scrapbook. In this geometry lesson, students use digital cameras to take pictures of geometrical concepts. Students use the pictures to create a "Geotown" scrapbook.

Learners are introduced to basic aerodynamics through a discussion of thrust and drag and a hands-on activity. They examine the forces of thrust, drag, air pressure, aerodynamic shapes and Newton's Third Law Of Motion.

Students examine buoyancy and fluid pressure. They conduct a series of fun experiments to discover the effects of pressure and explore how pressure differences can be used to float, lift, transport, or hold a material in place.

Students examine basic electrical components. They build a simple electrical circuit which rings a buzzer. They experiment with conducting and nonconducting materials.

Students listen to the song, The Wheels on the Bus. Instead of a bus, students attempt to sing the song using a different mode of transportation.

Students read the short poem for each number to help them with number formation. In this numbers lesson plan, students follow directions of the poems.

Students sort shoes. In this sorting lesson, students use shoes to explore attributes and practice sorting. This lesson encourages the use of a Venn Diagram to aide in student sorting.

Students practice grouping in different ways by putting numbers up to 1,000 in the correct place value. In this place value lesson plan, students estimate items in a jar and then count them out by grouping them by 10s.

Students construct a set of tangrams. In this geometry lesson, students read the book, Grandfather Tang's Story and retell the story using tangrams. Students construct their own set of tangrams using the included worksheets.

Students investigate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students estimate and measure the radius, diameter and circumference of a circle. This assignment has an online part that is interactive.

Fifth graders use their arm, toothpicks, and marshmallows to create lines, segments, and rays. In this lines, segments, and rays lesson plan, 5th graders learn how these appear on a plane.

Young scholars solve problems dealing with ratios and proportions. For this algebra lesson, students rewrite word problems using equations and symbols. They correctly convert between percents and decimals.

Students investigate shapes and patterns. In this algebra lesson, students move from concrete to abstract understanding of shapes and concepts. They use variable to identify the unknown.
