- By Wicky Porch.
- Float, sink, flink!
- In this lesson, students will learn to make things flink, meaning they neither float to the top nor sink to the bottom of a fluid. They will discover that whether an object floats or sinks depends not only on the properties of the object itself, but also on the properties of the fluid (either gas or liquid) in which it is situated.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 2–4 Science)
- By Erin Denniston.
- Floatless boats
- In Design technology: Children's engineering, page 4.2
- In this lesson, students will test a variety of objects to determine if they float or sink in water. They will then create an object that neither floats nor sinks but “flinks.” Vocabulary terms and concepts covered in the lesson include buoyancy, gravity, density, and equilibrium.
- Format: /lesson plan (grade 1–3 Science)
- By Erin Denniston.
- Fraction fun
- Introduce fractions and mixed numbers using paper plates.

- By Laurie Perry.
- Geometry and art: Art museum post-visit
- This is the third lesson in a three-part unit integrating math, writing and visual arts. In this integrated lesson, students apply their knowledge of geometry by organizing and displaying information in graphs with correct labeling. Students then compare and analyze graphs. Finally, with this information students create a geometric design.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 1–2 Visual Arts Education and Mathematics)
- By Loretta Hopper.
- Geometry and art: Art museum pre-visit
- This lesson is the first of a three-part unit integrating math, writing and visual arts. In this discovery learning activity, students look at and compare two works of art. The paintings are quite different, but they contain many examples of geometric shapes. Students then complete a comment sheet, explaining what is similar and different about the works of art. This lesson can be used alone or used to prepare students for an art museum visit.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 1–2 Visual Arts Education)
- By Loretta Hopper.
- Geometry and art: Art museum visit
- This lesson is the second in a three-part unit integrating math, writing and visual arts. In this lesson students apply their knowledge of geometry by sorting, classifying and counting plane geometric figures during a visit to the art museum to look at and compare twentieth- century paintings. Students then collect data and share what they observe.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K–2 Visual Arts Education and Mathematics)
- By Loretta Hopper.
- Getting along with others

- By Pat Nystrom.
- Graphing and measurement go hand-in-hand
- Students learn how to use customary measurement using inches or centimeters and data collection and graphing simultaneously. Students will measure the length of their foot, arm span, hand span, or head circumference to the nearest centimeter or inch. Next they will collect and represent their data by constructing a graph.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 2–3 Mathematics)
- By Fran Toledano.
