Middle and high schoolers perform transformations. In this web based lesson, students explore dihedral figures. They use the web tools to translate, rotate, and reflect figures. Pupils identify lines of symmetry.

Students calculate the altitude of triangles.  In the web based lesson plan, students explore the interior distance from a given point in a polygon to its side.  They compute the sum of these lengths. Students read life...

Students draw perpendicular bisectors.  In this perpendicular bisectors lesson, students identify the perpendicular bisector in a polygon.  They use web tools to create and measure perpendicular bisectors.  Students...

Seeing is believing. Given several bivariate data sets, learners make scatter plots using the online SeeIt program to visualize the correlation. To get a more complete picture of the topic, they research their own data set and perform an...

Young scholars use the macro mode of the OLYMPUS FE-140 CAMERAS as virtual microscopes to explore different habitats, observe plants, soil, and insects and other creatures. They download those images on electronic files and build web...

Fourth graders discuss characteristics of polygons and organize and visualize those characteristics using Kidspiration. Students import pictures that demonstrate the characteristics and save their projects to be reviewed and graded by...

Students add numbers to ten.  For this addition to ten lesson, students play the Ten frame interactive game to learn about addition and facts to number ten.

Young scholars use an Internet tool to explore shapes and how they combine.  In this patterns lesson, students create quilting patterns using various shapes.  Young scholars recognize how the shapes fit together.

Learners use the on-line affine recurrence plotter to graph equations. They work on-line to create graphs of trout in a trout pond and savings account balances when interest is compounded over time. Links to the four one-day lessons are...

The more you text, the less you study. Have classes test this hypothesis or another question related to text messages. Using real data, learners use technology to create a scatter plot and calculate a regression line. They create a dot...

Students sort through pictures of food to create patterns as they pertain to geometry. In this geometric patterns lesson, students relate to food as concrete objects that represent geometric patterns. Students recognize and...

Read aloud your choice of books about counting on and counting back (a list is provided, or tell stories of your own). Your learners will write horizontal equations to portray what happens in the story. They build a paper chain and...

Third graders recognize that the larger the denominator of a fraction, the smaller the piece you have.  In this fraction lesson, 3rd graders compare fractions and order them from largest to smallest. Students complete an exercise...

Eighth graders research Civil War events occurring during one month of the year, recording specific events and the dates on which they occurred. They list each event by month, day, and year on a one-month calendar of their own creation.

learners identify and research robots in various roles in society, and create robotic arms and multimedia presentation based on their findings.

Students participate in an adding game. In this adding numbers lesson, students calculate the sum of the dice and remove a number from their activity sheet.  Students who first removes the numbers is the winner.

Students view objects sorted by one characteristic and name that characteristic.  In this sorting rule lesson, students explore to find a new characteristic and write a description of that rule.  In early grades the rule might...

Students explore various polygons and examine how shapes can be manipulated in a variety of ways. In this shape tool lesson, students identify geometric shapes in two dimensions. Students identify and draw one line of symmetry in a...

Students examine how many different outfits can be made out of a given set of different colored shirts and pants. In this word problem lesson, students list or graph the possible results of an experiment. Students make a list of all...

Students show their knowledge of properties of objects as it pertains to sorting and creating patterns. In this food pyramid power lesson, students show their ability to use whole numbers in different representations by appling...

Students demonstrate fraction symbols. For this fractions lesson, students use paper strips to represent various fractions. Students then use fraction circles to compare various given fractions.

Learners read different scenarios and discuss how to add fractions. in this addition of fractions lesson plan, students learn how to add unlike fractions and practice 4 problems.

Students research the internet and use the information they find to plot straight line graphs. They use graphs to make comparisons of the various packages offered. Students interpret graphs and solve problems based on varying parameters.

Students describe shapes to their classmates using specific properties and practice making triangles on geoboards. In this geoboards lesson plan, students use string on the geoboards.
