In this math lesson, learners make wallets or purses and then participate in a variety of money-related activities. First, learners make their own paper money and paper wallets or purses.

In this math lesson, learners participate in several activities where they apply measurement skills.

In this online activity, learners use a realistic mass and spring laboratory. They hang masses from springs and adjust the spring stiffness and damping.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

In this activity, learners discover the importance of maps and scale as they work together to create a map of the classroom.

In this activity, learners make three different "seed" types and determine which design flies the farthest.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners use simple materials to investigate evaporation. How can the evaporation of water on a hot day be used to cool an object? Find out the experimental way!

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this math lesson, learners practice estimation and measurement skills as they move from station to station calculating length, volume, weight, and area.

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity, learners make cool boxes out of old (or new) greeting cards or postcards.

Put the math of measurement, numbers, and everyday life into improvisational skits.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most to learn about the different sizes of dinosaurs.

In this math lesson, learners apply mathematical modeling to solve a real-world storage problem, in which a manufacturing company is given two options for storing oil barrels.

In this activity, learners compare the ancient Egyptian system of measurement, which was based on body lengths, to the customary and metric systems used today.

How do scientists measure how clear or murky water in a lake is? How does water clarity (clearness) affect what lives in the lake?

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

This activity combines learning about nutrition, math of measurement and proportion, and healthy eating. Start by distributing food packages with Nutrition Facts labeled.
