STEM Unit: Up, Up and Away
My rationale for conducting this IB unit project is to connect math and science. I wanted my students to understand that math is the universal language and basis of scientific communication. Students will communicate and reason as they solve real-life problems. This project introduces positive and negative integer relationships and proportional reasoning through scientific inquiry. It also includes a rubric as well.
Graphing Activity - That Mu You Do - With Key
I do this activity with my freshman pre-algebra class to have them get experience with graphing "real data" points, then finding the slope of the "best fit line" and making meaning of what they did. A regular question in math class is "when am I ever going to use this?" This activity gives them something tactile to do with their hands that then makes the data points and the graph itself have real meaning for them and not just be numbers / dots on the page. I follow this activity up with "Graphin

Properties of Matter: Brainstorm Identifying Matter (PRELAB)
Interested in PrBL/PBL? Want to get students engaged in learning about matter while still holding them accountable?This Prelab introduces students to the story of Archimedes and the Golden Crown of Hiero. Students brainstorm how they might figure out if a crown was made of solid gold - without destroying it!This prelab is designed to get students ready to learn about the properties of matter. It is the first activity in a 5 part lab.This prelab can also work as a stand alone assignment to introd
