Composting "The Right Mix"

What should go in the trash, and what can be composted? Guide your young conservationists through the process of composing their trash with a lesson about the different ways we can dispose of garbage. Using a trash bag with clean...

No, you can't actually smell these 13 scratch-n-sniff stickers. But you can group them into equal groups of four, with one sticker remaining. Using that information, learners create a mixed number based on the improper fraction, 13/4.

An interactive challenges mathematicians to add mixed fractions with unlike denominators. Five questions—fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice—build from one to the next leading the way to an open discussion about denominators and...

Five questions—multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion—make up an interactive that focuses on decimals as mixed numbers. Moveable blocks assist scholars in finding solutions. 

Does your blood type matter? The video explains the four main blood types and the importance of knowing blood types when performing transfusions. The interactive reviews the information with a quick graphic organizer and questions.

The first STEM lesson in a group of 10 explores composting. After discussing how to make a better tomorrow, classes are challenged to track garbage in their communities, visit a local waste management facility, and conduct a survey...

Here is a fascinating video that explores the genetic implications of our blood types as humans, how we can determine an individual's blood type based on cell alleles, the RH factor, and how blood types can mean life or death for those...

Five questions challenge scholars to add mixed numbers. A tool creates a visual model that separates whole numbers from fractions parts. Problem types include fill in the blank, true or false, and discussion.  

Practice adding and subtracting improper fractions with pineapple slices. Young mathematicians move whole pineapple slices to visualize the addition of the 2/5s that is on Sally's plate. Pupils also use a combination of mixed numbers and...

Compare fraction models to fractions on a number line in an interactive that uses pumpkin pies as the model. Pupils look at pumpkin pie models to determine their improper fraction value. They use their knowledge to answer five questions...
