This activity explores the main algorithms that are used as the basis for searching on computers, using different variations on the game of battleships.

In this activity, learners cut a shape into two equal sized pieces and use their knowledge of geometry and space to prove that the two parts are equal.

In this activity, learners will predict the size of a giant scale model of a comb or other rectangular object, then make one. If you tripled the size of a dollar bill, could you sit on it?

In this activity, learners will measure the length of a shadow and use the distance from the equator to calculate the circumference of the earth.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this activity, learners combine counting, area and perimeter concepts as they prepare the seating arrangement for a family reunion dinner.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

Learners make a counting/estimating jar to exchange with friends or bring home.

In this math lesson, learners compare pattern blocks to visually understand halves, thirds, and sixths.

Make snack time into measuring time and learn to read Nutrition Facts labels. Try this when you’re using “pourable” foods, such as cereal, yoghurt, or juice.

In this robotics activity, learners drive a remote-controlled car through a course to learn the challenges faced while trying to operate a planetary rover.

In this puzzle, learners investigate the decisions involved in linking a network between houses in a muddy city.

In this two-part math lesson, learners investigate problems that foster algebraic thinking across content strands. In the first part, learners explore even and odd numbers linked to quilts.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity about sleep rhythms (on page 21 of the PDF), learners will collect data about their own sleep cycles and use a fraction wheel to examine their data.

In this math activity, learners will create a scale diagram of their backyard or other outdoor area on graph paper.

In this math activity, learners make and explore patterns using the letters in their names, a grid, and some colors.

In this activity, learners will participate in a scavenger hunt involving sizes, shapes, and numbers. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this math activity related to volume, learners use problem solving skills to calculate and build a model house for Minus the dog.

In this activity, learners find as many combinations of a hundred as they can using various puzzle pieces from a hundred square grid paper.
