TEN lesson plans, NGSS aligned. Engaging activities. Minimal materials (mostly items you already have, a few lessons require items that are easily obtained). Topics include natural selection, fossil records, balanced/unbalanced forces, genetic variation, magnetic and electric forces, and life cycles of organisms. Lessons cover the following NGSS standards: 3-PS2-1, 3-PS2-2, 3-PS2-3, 3-PS2-4, 3-LS1-1, 3-LS2-1, 3-LS3-1, 3-LS3-2, 3-LS4-1, and 3-LS4-2 Your time is your most valuable resource! Save a

This project based learning lesson plan/activity gives students a chance to apply the concept of systems of linear equations. Students will create a Slide presentation complete with graphical and algebraic solutions to their chosen system of equations. Teacher and student instructions are included, as well as an example project and rubric.

Students play the game from the famous Monty Hall problem. Choose the right door, win a prize! The simple, yet counterintuitive solution created a controversy, even among world famous mathematicians! Students will use basic probability and data collection to predict, analyze, and reflect. Great activity for the first days of any math class!

Interactive Google Slides introduces the basic geometric transformations: translations, rotations, reflections and dilations. This activity is engaging and easy to follow, and requires very little teacher preparation. Just grab and go! Note: the activity introduces each transformation and its properties, but does not get into transformations on the coordinate plane (that is a separate activity/lesson). It does not go into detail on each type (for example, for dilations, it does not get into find

It's the most, wonderful tiiiiiime, of the yeeeeeear! Nope, not Christmas. MARCH MADNESS! For basketball fans and non-fans alike, the NCAA basketball tournament is a time to gather, compete, and cheer. And apparently, to learn! This activity/lesson uses the popular bracket contests to teach probability, linear and non-linear equations, and making sense of large quantities. Includes teacher and student instructions, answer guides and explanations.

Great for Virtual Learning! Students see examples of identifying the Pythagorean Theorem given different triangles. This activity is focused on identifying and writing the relationship between sides of a right triangle, NOT on solving the equations.

How many geometric relationships are there in one simple picture? Students will practice finding congruent line segments and angles, relationships between angles in parallel lines, linear pairs, properties of polygons, right triangle relationships, and more! This can be used after learning just a few basic geometry concepts of after learning nearly all geometry concepts. The skill of identifying and recording geometric relationships is at the heart of success in geometry. This activity makes it

Students find examples of geometry vocabulary in the neighborhood or within the school (or at home if you are doing virtual learning). Can be used for any topic: points/lines/planes/angles, parallel lines, circles, etc.

A great way to start the school year. Questions can be edited to suit your class and age group. Works well for remote/virtual learning, too! Results displayed anonymously, so you can show the class how they answered as a whole.

Students write and put on a play set in a courtroom to prove the defendant GUILTY. Guilty of what? Being congruent! Or supplementary! Or of having a value less than that of another figure! This engaging activity takes from 3 to 5 class days, and helps students focus on being thorough and accurate, as well as having fun! You can cover any geometry topic using this activity. Enjoy!

Students practice drawing various cross sections of 3D objects. Use for instruction, practice, or quick assessment.

Overview of basic geometric figures and how they relate to dimensions gives students the foundation for the rest of geometry.

Students practice identifying the sine, cosine and tangent ratios in a given right triangle. They then apply the ratios in solving for sides and angles in right triangles. Includes answer key.

Students move around the room to solve a series of problems involving our good friend, Pi. Topics include area and circumference of circles as well as surface area and volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres.

This activity guides students through the process of developing and using a formula for area of a sector of a circle. Includes application problems and answer guide.

Killing Aunt Sally explores the challenges to grade school math education. Specifically, the challenges that are our fault. But they can be fixed. From reteaching specific topics to proposing broad pedagogical strategies, and the occasional tangential rant, Jon A.S. offers an opportunity for a cultural shift, not only in how we teach math, but in how we think about math, and about education as a whole.

This 60 day packet includes: an in-depth and thought provoking question each day on a range of algebra and basic statistics topics; an answer guide with thorough explanations and examples for each question, suggested discussion questions, and follow up activities; a table connecting questions to common core math standards; a chart showing questions by topic; a 10 page student guide (6 questions per page) with a workspace designated for each question; teacher instruction page on using the packet.

Students will complete a chart showing the angle properties of polygons with three through ten sides. They will use these properties to derive formulas for each value (sum of interior angles, each interior angle of regular polygons, etc). Comes with answer key and teacher notes/instructions.

Half page quiz, covers angle relationships (names and mathematical relationships): corresponding, alternate interior, alternate exterior, consecutive interior, consecutive exterior, vertical angles, and linear pairs. Includes modified version of the quiz and answer key.

Short quiz on proving triangles congruent (SSS, SAS, AAS, etc). 4 proofs with answer key provided. Includes modified version of the quiz as well! Focused on identifying congruent parts and determining if those parts prove the triangles congruent. NOT focused on "formal" proof or a specifically formatted proof.
