Students collect real data through listening, counting and timing jazz pieces.They use ratios, rates, and proportions to report collected data and demonstrate an understanding of the concepts of rhythm and tempo in music.

Students identify their feelings and learn constructive ways of handling conflict. In this feelings and conflict instructional activity, students read a story about conflict and identify ways to understand emotions and resolve conflict.

Students analyze the relationship between speed, time and distance. In this math lesson, students plan a school trip. Students determine the efficiency and cost effectiveness of a trip.

Students solve multiplication word problems by using base 10 blocks and drawing pictures. In this multiplication lesson plan, students also write a reflection of their work.

Eighth graders introduce themselves to the class by using a creative display of magazine cutouts, pictures, and drawings on a math symbol that represents who they are.

Fifth graders experience a lesson to investigate the methods for finding the area of a circle. They use the drawing of segments in order to visualize how a circle can be proposed of many parts. Then students brainstorm in order to derive...

Fourth graders participate in a demonstration lesson using bubbles in which they determine that air fills the bubbles. Next, they work in small groups as they they experiment with the properties of air at separate work stations. After...

In this math worksheet, students solve 4 riddles in which 3 out of 4 answers shown could be correct. Students mark the answer that would be impossible.

Learners investigate modular clock arithmetic and cryptography. They perform basic operations in modular (clock) arithmetic and encode and decode messages using simple shift and affine ciphers.

Pupils identify, extend and create patterns using various types of manipulatives and then work a pattern game in the computer lab to reinforce what was learned.

Students examine tesselllations and their geometric properties. They have a better knowledge of polygons, can identify types of symmetry in tessellations. Also students use visulization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to...

Second graders define the word pattern and other related vocabulary. They create a pattern independently. Students recognize and extend patterns. They explain how repeated patterns are made. Students explore several patterns on a...

In this math worksheet, students investigate the concepts of order of operations, domains, and inverse functions while using a calculator.

High schoolers design a cafeteria floor plan. In this area and perimeter lesson, groups create an efficient lunchroom layout on poster board by using geometric shapes and formulas as the basis for their designs. In the accompanying...

Fourth graders use a 100's chart, Unifix cubes, graph paper and colored pencils to experiment with patterns. They arrange their Unifix cubes on the 100's chart and then identify and record patterns on the graph paper.

Seventh graders investigate some concepts associated with geometric shapes. They study the bisector segment and the perpendicular line to a given line. Students conduct analysis with the goal of deepening observation and deduction...

Fourth graders complete a worksheet about approximate measurements. In this lesson on approximation, 4th graders compare the wingspan of a given bird to the wingspan of other birds and classroom objects.

Students identify patterns in equations. In this algebra lesson plan, students write equations of problems with recurring patterns. They relate and model real life situation using functions.

First graders listen to a read aloud of Stephanie Calmenson's, Dinner a the Panda Palace identifying words related to math and writing them on a chart paper.

Middle schoolers practice using the FOIL acronym as a procedure for multiplying two binomial expressions. FOIL occurs by multiplying the First terms, Outside terms, Inside terms and Last terms.

Pupils study the recurrence rules for patterns where the increase from one term to the next is not constant. They look for the recurrence rule on their own. They copy the pattern and create the next element, continue the pattern with...

Young scholars are introduced to some number patterns using buildings constructed with squares. They construct tables of patterns and finding the recurrence rule for a simple pattern where the increase from term to term is a constant.

Third graders perform a line dance in the study of math as a pattern. They create and discuss movement solutions derived from movement exploration. They observe that patterns exist in the areas of music and dance and follow the...

Students investigate water in its solid and liquid form. In this states of matter lesson, students experiment to see what happens as water goes from a solid, ice, to a liquid, water, and back again. They write about and illustrate the...
