In this multi-day lesson plan, students use manipulatives to learn about composite and prime numbers. Students investigate that a whole number is a multiple of each of its factors and determine whether a given whole number is a multiple of a given one-digit number.
In this lesson, students identify the attributes of quadrilaterals, measure perimeter and area, and use formulas to calculate the area of quadrilaterals.
In this lesson, students will be able to represent fractions, decimals and percents using physical models, pictures, words and mathematical symbols.
In this lesson, students will create and extend patterns, write algebraic expressions to model rules or patterns, and evaluate algebraic expressions for a given value.
In this lesson, students will use the scientific process to explore the effects of force on an object in motion.
In this inquiry based lesson, students identify rocks by examining rock characteristics and processes. Students observe rocks, create their own rock field guide, and discover how rocks are formed. All charts and students handouts are included in a printable format.
This lesson integrates literature with science by reading "Sylvester and the Magic Pebble." Students will also learn to describe rocks by using different physical properties.
In this lesson, students will study various properties of a rock and record their data in a Rock Star Journal.
In this lesson, students will sort rocks. Students will sort based on hardness, texture, layering, and particle size. Students will read the book, 'Sylvester and the Magic Pebble' and make a class rock collection.
This resource describes the various minerals that make up rocks.
In this activity, students will model the rock cycle.
With this resource, students will complete a chart to show the rock cycle.
With this resource, students will create a model earthquake.
This activity is designed to help students see ways that Earth's changes can alter the order that rocks are found in.
With this resource,students will make models of faults and landslides.
In this activity, students will take on the role of a geologist by dating rock formation.
This resource describes in detail, the various types of rocks.
This resourcs is an article that discusses earthquakes and volcanos with analysis questions at the conclusion.
This is an interactive resource in which students can test their knowledge of rock types.
This resources is an article that discusses volcano eruptions and the heat energy that is transferred from the lava to the surface of the earth.
