Young scholars perform translations on different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students create figures that will be used as an assessment to represent transformation. They perform hands on creation and relate it to the real world.

In this combining sentences worksheet, students read information about how to use conjunctions or semicolons to avoid run on sentences. Students write four sentences according to directions.

Students use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems. In this geometry lesson, students solve for the distances by calculating the different parts of the shape of a two and three dimensional shape. They reason by analogy.

Students apply the Unit Circle to solve ratios of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students derive the different ratios of a triangle using the Pythagorean Theorem. They find the angles of a unit circle using a right triangle.

Students calculate the different ratios using a right triangle. In this trigonometry lesson, students identify the sine, cosine and tangent of each side. They find the missing angles using the different ratios.

Young scholars examine how some transformations, such as reflections and rotations, do not change the figure itself, only its position or orientation.

Students thread a piece of spaghetti through the holes in the cup. One person suspend the cup by placing each index finger approximately one inch in from the ends of the spaghetti.

Students review graphing terminology and how to plot data points, how to input data into a spreadsheet, and how to make a chart using a computer.

Students identify the basic transformations of parent functions. They use their graphing calculator to create a transformation booklet by folding a sheet of computer paper in half and stapling along the folded edge.

students research blood's components, and use their math skills to recreate a model of whole blood using commonly found food items.

Fourth graders investigate five different reference sources in the Media Center: Atlas, Dictionary, Encyclopedia, Card Catalog (Look Up Station), and the Internet. They decide which is the BEST source to use to answer specific questions.

Third graders develop an understanding of the Caldecott Award and are exposed to an interesting biography through the picture book, Snowflake Bentley.

Pupils distinguish between the centripetal and centrifugal forces.

Students examine a communist regime and what it means to live within a communist societyl.

Young scholars study Incan artifacts found at an online database and create samples using clay pottery and paint.

Learners gain an introduction to gestural line drawing along with art history correlations. They are encouraged to focus on the energy, mass, and expression of the subject rather than on illustrated replication.

Students use organizational skills and involve youth in the planning of their school and home recycling project. They brainstorm to find the most efficient way to set up a recycling collection system

Students explore their community recycling program and observe how aluminum cans are processed for recycling.

Students examine igneous and sedimentary rocks. They observe and identify geological formations in their community, analyze igneous and sedimentary geological layers using a geological map, and use GPS to locate geological formations.

Students use the CBC Archives Web site to explore the relationship between television and print news and create television news reports based on print news.

Students demonstrate the knowledge of proper scientific investigation and reporting skills. They decide how to make a positive difference in the world using these skills.

Students perform various activities to demonstrate knowledge of time zones. They connect with an interactive map to discover what time zone they are in. They create clocks out of paper plates and simulate different time zones.

Students have cups of different colored water. They add a new color by using a medicine dropper and see how new colors are formed.

Students do various activities and research on the history of Colorado water rights and local ditches and evaluate current situations in terms of water rights, water sources, ditches,as well as how different groups have been affected by...
