Students learn about nanocomposites, compression and strain as they design and program robots that compress materials. Student groups conduct experiments to determine how many LEGO MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT motor rotations it takes to compress soft nanocomposites, including mini marshmallows, Play-Doh®, bread and foam. They measure the length and width of their nanocomposite objects before and after compression to determine the change in length and width as a function of motor rotation.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to give fourth graders an overview of length (english units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about using real maps (english lengths and distances).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach second graders about using real maps (english lengths and distances).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to give fourth graders an overview of capacity - word problems.
Through this lesson and its two associated activities, students are introduced to the use of geometry in engineering design, and conclude by making scale models of objects of their choice. The practice of developing scale models is often used in engineering design to analyze the effectiveness of proposed design solutions. In this lesson, students complete fencing (square) and fire pit (circle) word problems on two worksheets—which involves side and radius dimensions, perimeters, circumferences and areas—guiding them to discover the relationships between the side length of a square and its area, and the radius of a circle and its area. They also think of real-world engineering applications of the geometry concepts.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about distances between points on one route (metric units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about dividing lengths (english units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach second graders about dividing lengths (english units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about dividing weights (metric units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about estimating measure by image: centimeters or meters?.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about estimating measure by description - multiple choice.
In this activity students will learn the basic concept of Global Positioning Systems (GPS) using triangulation and measurement on a small scale in the classroom. Students discover how GPS and navigation integrate mathematic and scientific concepts to create a standard for locating people and objects. This activity helps students understand both the need for and methods of navigation.
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about finding the capacity of water with illustrations (metric units).
This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about using the four operations with weights (english units).
