Pupils investigate image and pre-image. In this geometry lesson, students identify the reflection and rotation of different shape on a coordinate plane. They identify similarities and differences of image and pre-image of a reflection.

Students explore the different types of multicultural holidays.

Students create a jack-o-lantern glyph that accurately represents his or her answers to a series of questions. The completed jack-o-lanterns are displayed in the classroom and the class interprets the data.

Third graders investigate three dimensional shapes. They examine a variety of shapes and the relationship between the number of faces, edges, and vertices. Students determine Euler's formula and they create a variety of three dimensional...

Seventh graders listen to a set of instructions and complete a drawing. In this listening skills instructional activity, 7th graders listen to a set of oral directions and follow a command. Students then listen to a second set of...

Students study bridges and design and build their own. They explore different types of bridges and build a basic beam bridge in pairs. After creating their beam bridge, they design a truss bridge and then build a suspension bridge and...

Young scholars use geometric formulas to divide a pumpkin pie. In this geometric formulas lesson, students review equations for area and circumference of a circle and divide a pumpkin pie to practice the formulas. Young scholars use the...

Students perform transformations and translation on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students move shapes around on a graph identifying translation, image, and transformation. This lesson has an interactive part online that...

Students 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 geometry learning exercise, 6th graders find the measurement of the angles in many different shapes. Students complete 15 problems.

Young scholars cover a picture with the correct pattern blocks and then sort the blocks into groups of the same shape. They make statements about the patterns blocks using comparison words.

Students practice agility moves timing various locomotor skills (slide shuffle, sprinting, backwards jogging, fast walking), over a star pattern in pairs.

Third graders explore pattern blocks noticing their similarities and differences and share their observations with others. They classify shapes by discussing sides and angles and combine pieces to make new shapes.

Students create their own sundial and explore how to read it.

Learners examine Holocaust memorials to discover expressive power of shapes, practice creating simple geometric shapes or forms, and practice calculating ratios, area, and/or volume.

Students explore how some tilings can display rotational and/or reflection symmetry in addition to translational symmetry. Students demonstrate how these tilings can be generated using either one of the symmetry concepts and Zome System...

Students imitate rhythmic patterns created by the teacher or taken from the drum performance of "Oshossi." They study and perform some of the layered and interlocking rhythms of the drum ensembles of Brazil, Haiti, Cuba, Suriname, and...

Students use movement and dance in order to strengthen mathematical understanding of different geometric shapes. The movements are imitating the drawing of shapes and they pick one to make into a dance. Upon beginning the dance music can...

Students are given the background information to open the lesson: Suppose a penalty kicker in soccer could choose where he could kick from, as long as he stayed on the back line of the penalty area. Would he have a better chance of...

Students are able to define the following terms: compiler, source code, object code, syntax code, and debugging. They are able to define a computational problem. Students are able to formulate a simple mathematical model. They are able...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of median, mode, and range using a simple model for display purposes. They examine different shaped crackers out of a box and identify the ones that occur the most. Then the calculations for the...

Seventh graders develop strategies for finding the perimeter and area of large geometric figures. Through lecture and guided practice, 7th graders practice the strategy of dividing a geometric shape into smaller more manageable shapes...

Students, after describing and identifying a variety of major consequences and sequences of major historical events and developments in American History, create a mobile on a specific event in history. They follow specific instructions...

In this anatomy worksheet, students identify auscultation and palpation through a lab exercise. They identify various features on the face, neck and cranium and describe their significance. Students also identify points for injection,...
