Students conduct a lab (with water, guar gum and sodium borate) and carefully record physical and chemical properties and changes throughout the session, and experiment with weighing by difference.

In this moon worksheet, students calculate information about the crater that was created by a massive impact. This worksheet has 3 problems to solve.

Young scholars explore what happens to water as it goes from solid to liquid and back. In this state of matter lesson, students observe, measure, and describe water as it changes state.

Student describe porosity and permeability in sand, gravel, clay and potting soil. They experiment using different materials to discover the different porous substances and the permeability of the same substances. Students place data on...

Students define density and observe that things that are less dense than water will float. Students find the density of copper, iron and aluminum

Second graders write in journals, recording personal thoughts about what they learned and/or something they are wondering about.

Ninth graders solve linear equations.  In this Algebra I lesson, 9th graders investigate the properties of equations (Reflexive, Symmetric, Transitive, Substitution, and Transformation Properties) and use these properties to solve...

Middle schoolers realize that density exists. They develop a mental model of density-to realize that something is going on that they cannot see to account for differences between materials.

Learners relate the concept of density in relation to the rocks that make up the Earth. They determine the density of various rock specimens and answer assessment questions.

Students see a demonstration of the concept of factors through modeling. They do an activity that help them explain further the concept of common factors and greatest common factor.

Students measure water and make predictions about efficiency.

Students, in groups, use song lyrics and math to descrie two and three dimensional shapes.

Second graders read poetry and build their vocabulary through use of the puppet Geo George.

Second graders explore how musical instruments h ave varying geometric shape, and how those geometric shapes correspond to three-dimenaional shapes that students have studied.

Students indentify and differentiate between transit and surface food systems. Students measure energy that is released by various foods. Students compare and contrast cooking with solar energy on earth and what they might have learned...

Tenth graders study the metric system.  In this metric lesson students complete a lab activity and several metric worksheets. 

In this Algebra II/Pre-Calculus activity, students determine the points of inflections for various functions and use the answers to complete a riddle.  The one page activity contains seven problems.  Answers are included. 

Students complete measurement activities. In this measurement lesson, students watch online clips about measurements. Students view items and discuss taking measurements of them. Students discuss what units of measurement and equipment...

Students calculate evaporation rate using differential equations. In this calculus lesson plan, students explain how pan evaporation works. They complete a worksheet to sum up the lesson plan.

Use Glencoe's Math Course 2 randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your knowledge of how to find the volume of a cylinder. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of the...

Mini-lesson takes a look at the definition and shape of a cylinder, cylinder formula, cylinder volume, and cylinder surface area. Try your hand at the cylinder surface area calculator and interactive questions for better understanding.

Use these calculator tools to find the volume, in your choice of units, of a sphere, cone, cube, cylinder, rectangular prism, capsule, ball cap, conical frustum, ellipsoid, or square pyramid. Includes a reference section listing formulas...

Given a problem involving cones or cylinders, the student will find the volume using appropriate units of measure.

Pick up some valuable pointers on how to figure out the volume of various shapes. When you finish working your way through the pages you can take an online "Test Bite" and check your understanding.
