It's time to get crafty with shapes! Your future farmers demonstrate their geometric ability by building a farm using triangles, circles, rectangles, and squares. But first, scholars take part in a brainstorm session inspired by their...

Learn to find the slope through a single point. The interactive provides a visualization of how to find the slope of a tangent line. With the aid of the visualization, pupils see the definition of the derivative in action. Class members...

Using the provided worksheets, students solve equations involving factoring and finding square roots. At the conclusion of the activity, they discuss the answers and any difficulty experienced in solving the equations.

Scholars learn to order rational numbers in the seventh lesson in a series of 21. Reasoning about numbers on a number line allows for this ordering.

Learning about tangents doesn't have to be a slippery slope. Pupils drag a point around a unit circle to see how angle affects the slope of a line. They individually answer a set of challenge questions to come to the conclusion that...

What do yo-yos and pennies have to do with linear equations? Learn about writing and solving linear equations while considering the Yo-Yo Problem and Penny Pattern Exploration from the High School Math Project. Learners utilize algebra...

Bring the concept of conditional probability alive by allowing your classes to explore different probability scenarios. Many tasks have multiple solutions that encourage students to continue exploring their problems even after a solution...

The hunt is on! Young mathematicians follow clues and complete a series of ten math puzzles as they try to crack Dr. Integer's code and find the location of his hidden treasure.

Make sure the measurement is right. The interactive provides right triangles with a missing side measurement. Pupils use the given sides and the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of the missing side. After entering the length,...

First graders, after listening to the story I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today! think of a word problem of their own. They do this at their desks in their pre-assigned learning groups.

First graders use simple vegetable cut out and colored paper flower peddles to make simple patterns. They start out with a simple 2-element patterns around the theme of a daisy and increase in difficulty.

Fifth graders discover a method to solve word problems. In this 5thgrade math lesson, 5th graders learn the steps of SQRQCQ (survey, question, reread, question, compute, question. Students practice using the method to solve word problems.

Students develop locomotor movements. In this dance movement instructional activity, students identify lines and develop creativity while performing to "Cha Cha Slide". Students discuss how to create dances and difficulty of...

Students complete measurement activities. In this measurement lesson, students watch online clips about measurements. Students view items and discuss taking measurements of them. Students discuss what units of measurement and equipment...

Learners complete online activities to identify coins and their given values. In this coin values lesson, students identify pictures of various coins and write their values. Learners may then complete other activities based on a varying...

Ask learners about their personal writing habits, such as whether they keep a journal or a blog, or if they'd ever want to. Though this is not a fully developed lesson, you can use this article and question to provoke discussion and...

How can an object as heavy as an airplane fly? Turns out the answer is quadratic! Your classes explore the Bernoulli Effect through an interactive graph representation. As a plane increases in speed, the lift force also increases. Young...
