- By Vicki Rivenbark.
- Calculating slope of a ramp
- In On track learning: Safety through technology and design, page 9
- In this lesson, students build a ramp and calculate its slope at different heights. They will also test cars to see how the height of the ramp affects speed.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 7–10 English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Roxanne Moses.
- Critical thinking in science
- This unit of inquiry-based lessons teaches eighth-grade students to utilize and develop critical thinking skills. Students will create testable questions; design and perform experiments; collect, organize, and analyze data; and use these results to decide on the next step in the scientific process.
- Format: lesson plan (multiple pages)
- Density
- In Integrating Chemistry and Algebra II, page 3
- Students will determine the density of two unknown liquids by collecting mass and volume data. Each group of students will be given a different volume of the liquids to measure, they will combine their data to create a graph. Using the graph students will determine the density of the two liquids by calculating the slope of the two lines. Students will also use a graphing calculator to determine the slope of the two lines.

- By Jennifer Elmo.
- Design technology: Children's engineering
- This unit includes design technology projects linked to major themes in engineering. All the lessons and activities support national and state standards. They include materials lists, procedures, student data sheets, and assessment strategies. The lessons vary in grade level and can be modified up or down.
- Format: lesson plan (multiple pages)
- Determining the atomic mass of elements in a compound using matrices
- In Integrating Chemistry and Algebra II, page 4
- This lesson is designed to show students a practical application for matrices within the context of chemistry.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 9–12 Mathematics and Science)
- By Jennifer Elmo.
- Eco-packaging
- In Design technology: Children's engineering, page 1.5
- Environmental issues are often at odds with commerce. In this lesson, students balance the need for secure packaging with environmental and economic concerns. They will work together to create mailing packages for a fragile substance and evaluate their results once the package travels through the postal system.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 5 Mathematics and Science)
- By Erin Denniston.
- Ecuador: A study of population
- In this lesson, students will create population pyramid graphs and analyze photographs to investigate population in Ecuador. Students will draw on this analysis to make predictions about how population issues will affect Ecuador's future. The lesson plan is designed to be adapted to the study of various countries.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 6–7 English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies)
- By Eric Eaton.
- Exploring pumpkins
- This lesson will allow students to use a variety of methods to explore pumpkins.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K Mathematics and Science)
- By Angelia Braswell.
- Fluid Properties and scale models: Applying the Reynolds Number
- In A mathematical model to describe fluid behavior, page 3
- During this lesson, students will gain a more realistic understanding of the use of scale models and understand that conditions beyond similarity of the objects are necessary for a scale model to function in the same manner as the actual object. The students will gain knowledge of how the properties of fluids, specifically density and viscosity, affect the movement of fluid around objects.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 6–8 English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Jenny Rucker.
- Fun with fruits and vegetables
- The activities will help the student identify, describe, and classify fruits and vegetables and learn how each grows.
- Format: lesson plan (grade K Healthful Living, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Suzie Overholt.
- Geography centers
- A geography unit in which students investigate and compare their hometowns and other cities. The unit incorporates nine centers: math, science, social studies, reading, writing, computers, puzzles and games, art, and listening. They all have activities that are integrated with the geography unit.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 1–2 Visual Arts Education and Social Studies)
- By Laurie Perry.
- Good medicine
- Students will examine changes in technology, medicine, and health that took place in North Carolina between 1870 and 1930 and construct products and ideas which demonstrate understanding of how these changes impacted people living in North Carolina at that time. To achieve these goals, students will employ the eight intelligences of Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Theory.
