Beans and how they grow: The students will incorporate computer skills, math, and literature with books such as: Miss Rumphius and The Reason for a Flower.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 English Language Arts, Computer Technology Skills, and Science); By Betty Black.

Fractions on Kid Pix: Students will create illustrations of fractions as parts of a whole and parts of a set using Kid Pix computer program.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Computer Technology Skills and Mathematics); By Ann Keable.

A Geometric 'Field Trip': Students conduct a 'field trip' around the school (inside and out) looking for examples of geometric shapes. They record their findings using a digital camera and present their findings in a multimedia presentation.; Format: lesson plan (grade 2–3 Information Skills, English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Computer Technology Skills); By Mary Rizzo.

In full bloom: This mini-unit uses the wonderful story of Miss Rumphius by Barbara Clooney. Miss Rumphius travels to faraway places and makes the world more beautiful by planting her favorite seeds. The book sets the stage for activities relating to core curriculum objectives to be implemented into the learning environment, using technology tools and applications to create student products.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Computer Technology Skills); By Kay Ball.

"Kid-Created" Biographies: In this lesson plan, the students will create biographies on the people they know best-- their teachers! The students will use various skills to collect information, organize details, publish the biographies and present the information.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3–4 Information Skills, English Language Arts, and Computer Technology Skills); By Gregg Farr, Lynn Beatty, and Tricia Freeze.

Paint Tools & Geometric Figures: This lesson is meant to teach or review for third grade students the use of "Paint" tools. These tools are generic to many multimedia tools such as "HyperStudio" and "Kid Pics." For the student who is unfamilar with "Paint," it provides another tool of expression and illustration.

This lesson is also designed to reinforce geometry math skills. This ability to illustrate a three dimensional object on a flat one dimensional surface is important to enable the student to visualize geometry math problems.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Computer Technology Skills and Mathematics); By Barbara Waters.

Tour the United States via HyperStudio Stacks: Students will combine classroom, library and computer lab time to research and construct knowledge about the 49 states. Students do not do their home state which is why only 49 states are used. Students will use their new research knowledge and the resources provided to construct a HyperStudio stack on their assigned state.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Social Studies and Computer Technology Skills); By Karl Schaefer.
