This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.

In this math activity, learners play a game and identify patterns with fun moves and sounds. Discover how dancing and signing involve patterns.

In this activity, learners practice matching and subitizing as they create the longest domino train possible.

In this activity, learners "go fishing," then practice ruler use and size/pattern comparison with the animals they catch.

Choose a recipe to double (or triple, quadruple, or halve). Show everyone the recipe and engage them in figuring out: How much will we need to increase the recipe to feed everyone?

Esta actividad enseña la proporción y razón por hacer que los aprendices hagan "ensaladas" que combinan tres tipos de frijoles en tres combinaciones diferentes.

In this math lesson, learners explore transformations and quadratic functions through toothpick patterns.

In this math lesson, learners explore linear patterns, write a pattern in symbolic form, and solve linear equations using algebra tiles, symbolic manipulation, and a graphing calculator.

In this activity, learners build and play three math games. In the first game, called "Switcheroo," learners place marbles in holes 1 through 4 and 7 through 10.

In this activity, learners arrange triangles together to make patterns to create paper quilts. Learners experiment with arranging the triangles in different ways to make various designs.

In this math lesson, learners model exponential decay and exponential growth using M&M's, paper folding, and African rhino population data.

In this two-part math lesson, learners investigate problems that foster algebraic thinking across content strands. In the first part, learners explore even and odd numbers linked to quilts.

In this math activity, learners observe and sketch cracking patterns in pavement.

In this activity, learners slide shapes to create unusual tiled patterns.

This activity lets learners participate in the process of reconstructing a phylogenetic tree and introduces them to several core bioinformatics concepts, particularly in relation to evolution.

In this activity, learners work in partners to create and exchange messages written in Braille. Learners use a Braille key and thumbtacks to write their messages in Braille.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, learners will ask yes-no questions to identify a secret number (similar to Twenty Questions). Combine logic and numbers in this game for all ages.

In this activity, learners use a fictitious map of "Tourist Town" and counters to problem solve how to place ice-cream vans on street intersections so that every other intersection is connected to one

In this activity, learners construct three math puzzles out of simple materials like wood, string, and Styrofoam.
