First graders practice identifying plants by singing a song.  In this plant life activity, 1st graders sing the song "Parts of a Plant" which is based on the anatomy of sunflowers.  Students discover agriculture techniques...

Students analyze and interpret graphs. In this graphing instructional activity, students view a video and construct their own graphs (line, circle, bar) from given sets of data. 

Learners study fungi and its characteristics.  In this fungi lesson students collect and observe fungi then answer questions on what they saw. 

In this history worksheet, students read about dress in the 11th century. Students answer questions related to the reading. They are also asked to describe making an outfit for a visit to a palace.

Students explore the garden environment. In this garden environment lesson, students investigate the needs and parts of a plant. Students discover the differences between fruits and vegetables while creating their own garden.

Students create a flower, poem, and mailbox for someone to open on Valentine's Day. In this Valentine's Day lesson plan, students also write Valentine letters.

Students convert measurements from one unit to another. In this technology lesson plan, students create their own test tubes using a computer program. They calculate mass based on density information.

Young scholars solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson, students identify the sides and angles of a right triangle. They find the different trigonometric ratios and solve using sine, cosine and tangent.

Learners build an abstract meaningless object. In this technology lesson plan, learners draw the plans of the object. They exchange drafts among their classmates and build them.

Learners calculate the surface area and volume of shapes. In this geometry lesson, students create different scales and calculate the volume and area for each shape. They compare and contrast between the different scales and shapes.

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.

In this plants learning exercise, students compare and contrast vascular and non-vascular plants. Students learn the structure and function of the 3 types of plant tissues: dermal, ground, and vascular tissue. This learning exercise has...

Third graders review the placement and role of the sun in the solar system. Using beads, they create a necklace which they can use to identify the amount of sunlight is being illuminated. In groups, they record observations on the...

Second graders begin the lesson by planting their own bean seed. Individually, they make predictions about how many leaves and roots their plant might grow and each day record their observations. They graph the results of the length of...

Students write numbers on apple shapes, and then show their understanding of the number's value by putting the corresponding number of seeds on each apple.

Pupils practice using a GPS receiver. They walk in different directions and monitor their progress on maps. They enter specific locations and use information given to them to get them back to their original locations.

Students observe different demonstrations on the greenhouse effect. They build their own models to show the phenomenon. They discus the role of greenhouse gases on global warming.

Students observe falling objects. They discover the rate of falling is based on air resistance and not the weight of the objects. They discuss how engineers use this type of information to design aerodynamic shapes.

Students work together to create a survery about environmental issues in their community. They calculate and graph the results. They discuss the importance of surveys to engineers.

Students examine the effects of bycatching on water environments. They discover how echolocation works. They participate in a simulation of the process to use it while walking blindfolded.

Students work together to build their own simple circuits. They discover how electricity is conducted through light bulbs. They compare and contrast the differences beween a parallel and series circuit.

Sixth graders how primary research is carried out. They design a simple survey questionnaire to interview people about their week average television watching time. They analyze the results and write a report based on the information.

Students observe a visual representation of a volcano erupting. They measure and sketch the volcano and discuss how engineers use this information. They discover the type of equipment used to indicate an eruption.

Middle schoolers use satellite tracking software to monitor different satellites. They predict and graph the motion of the space station. They create a 3-D display of its path and share it with the class.
