Geometry students will be ecstatic about these engaging and enlightening end-of-the-year projects! Types of project ideas include interviewing a geometer, an ABCs of geometry poster, an engineering lab report, and origami work. 

Sixth graders build a working motor. In this lesson on motors, 6th graders use an inquiry method of learning to discover how to create a working electric motor with the supplies given to them. The teacher will guide them as needed....

Young analysts use real (provided) data from a class's test scores to practice using statistical tools. Not only do learners calculate measures of center and spread (including mean, median, deviation, and IQ range), but...

Students conduct a lab experiment using the scientific method. In this interdisciplinary lesson plan, students will test the difference in popping white and yellow corn. Students will write their lab report in their science, math,...

Pupils play a dice game to complete probability exercises. In this probability lesson, students collect data using a dice game and organize it into a spreadsheet format. Pupils also write a lab report for an experiment on probability.

Students research African-American mathematicians.  In this middle school mathematics lesson, students celebrate Black History by conducting Internet research on an African-American, mathematicians or scientist.  Students...

How high can your pupils jump? Learners design an experiment to answer this question. After collecting the data, they create box plots and scatter plots to analyze the data. To finish the lesson, they use the data to draw conclusions.

Reaction rates vary between your dominant and nondominant hand ... or do they? Young scholars conduct an experiment collecting data to answer just that. After collecting data, they calculate the p-value to determine if the difference is...

Pupils investigate conservation laws using a potato launcher. In this physics lesson, students measure angles, time and distance of the potato. They discuss applications of experiments like this.

Students demonstrate proper scientific observation skills. In this investigative science activity, students make observations, record their findings and form conclusions in order to improve their scientific documentation and writing skills.

Students research inventions that have been created. In this historical technology lesson, students read the Harcourt Brace social studies textbook and discuss how inventors used graphs to display data. Students create a table to write...

Young scholars demonstrate a comprehension of the properties, position, and motion of objects and materials, and of light, heat, electricity, and magnetism. They use materials to assemble an electric circuit and test materials,...

Fourth graders explore their ancestral background while they experience genealogy.

In this weekly schedule instructional activity, students pair with a classmate and then ask and answer the questions about their routine for Monday and Saturday. Students complete the chart with the answers.

Pupils explore the relationship between caloric expenditure and exercise, and see a real world use for fractions as they relate to daily life.

Students develop a pictorial portfolio of important assignments, projects and activities through their high school years. They use a camera and decide what makes a good photograph. Students organize their photographs into a portfolio...

Pupils use the six step scientific method to experiment with the differences in adhesives. Students test for tack, shear, and peel in these activities.
