This activity allows the user to explore different cross sections of various cones, cylinders, prisms, and pyramids. Cross sections can be difficult for students to understand, given that the concept requires that students switch between three-dimensional shapes and two-dimensional representations of those shapes.

This is a modification of the Illustrative Math lesson, "Crossing the Decade Concentration" https://www.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/1/NBT/A/1/tasks/405. This lesson was used with a tier 3 fourth grade intervention math group to help students count forward and backward by ones; specifically focusing on crossing the decades. I modified this lesson by extending the counting sequence to 200 instead of 100 and placed cards in 4 by 4 arrays instead of 3 by 3. My students were quite proficient counting forward across decades, but were not with counting backward across decades, so I also modified the game to practice this. Students picked from the "_0" number cards first and had to verbalize the number one back, the "_9" number. It was very important that they verbalize that number to show that they were truly thinking about crossing the decades versus just "guessing" for the card match. My students also needed additional practice crossing decades with numbers in the 100s so I extended the cards to 200 to practice this.

This write-pair-share activity for Calculus II students involves a hypothetical hemispherical loaf of bread with a 12-inch diameter that has been sliced into twelve one-inch-thick slices. The objective is to determine which slice contains the most upper crust (i.e., most area of its surface of revolution).

This interactive applet helps students develop spatial visualization skills and geometric understanding in both two and three dimensions. From an array of possible nets, students try to select the ones that actually fold to a cube. The applet supports the lesson Building a Box (cataloged separately). An animation that shows one net being folded is included.

In this lesson, students will use formulas they have explored for the volume of a cylinder and convert them into the same volume for rectangular prisms while trying to minimize the surface area. Various real world cylindrical objects will be measured and converted into a prism to hold the same volume. As an extension, students may design and create a rectangular prism container according to their dimensions to compare and contrast with the cylinder.

This math task involves concepts, procedure, and application of fraction division; devotes attention to a mathematically important case (dividend equal to 1); builds on fraction division work from fifth grade; and, engages students in constructing viable arguments and critiquing the arguments of others. Students use visual models to support understanding, work individually and collaboratively, and share their developing thinking in order to determine how many servings of rice they consumed if they ate 1 full cup and there are 2/3 cup to a serving.

According to Achieve the Core, (achievethecore.org), "The joint purpose of this task is to provide students an opportunity to practice two-digit subtraction with regrouping and to engage students in looking for and expressing regularity in repeated reasoning (MP.8). Throughout grade 2, students need many opportunities to practice subtraction in order to achieve fluency subtracting within 100 by the end of the grade. For students in grade 2, it is sufficient for them to recognize that differences of 9 will stem from numbers whose digits differ by 1, subtractions resulting in 18 will stem from numbers whose digits differ by 2, etc. "

With your mouse, drag data points and their error bars, and watch the best-fit polynomial curve update instantly. You choose the type of fit: linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic. The reduced chi-square statistic shows you when the fit is good. Or you can try to find the best fit by manually adjusting fit parameters.

Students conduct Internet research to investigate the purpose and current functioning status of some of the largest dams throughout the world. They investigate the success or failure of eight dams and complete a worksheet. While researching the dams, they also gain an understanding of the scale of these structures by recording and comparing their reservoir capacities. Students come to understand that dams, like all engineered structures, have a finite lifespan and require ongoing maintenance and evaluation for their usefulness.
