Elapsed Time with Start Times

This worksheet provides students with three problems to practice finding start time by labeling and using a number line. The directions instruct students to label each number line and then to draw a dot on where they believe the start time is on their number line. Questions are based on actual students and things that they enjoy to do in real life! This worksheet includes a clock that fast-finishers can color.

Equivalent and Comparing Fractions 3rd Grade Review Worksheet

This 3rd Grade comparing and equivalent math worksheet was designed as an end of unit review.  It contains 6 normal comparing fractions problems using <,>, and =.  The worksheet has 2 fraction problems using number lines. It also has pie charts and bar charts divided into fractions.  Finally, students will shade in the equivalent fractions on 4 rectangles that are divided into fractions.

Erosion: Angle of Repose Lab

In this lab, students will take piles of sand and determine what the sand's angle of repose is. Students will compare 4 trials and see at how many degrees slope will the sand be able to handle before it has a landslide. There is math involved in this process. Students will then answer some questions based on their observations.

Exploring River Formation Earth Science Lab

In this observation lab, students will use stream tables to observe how rivers form. When students are done they will understand how natural landslides can cause river course changes, how meanders are formed, how heavier sediment gets deposited quicker than lighter sediment like silt and clay, why rivers take the path they do, and how deltas are formed. Teacher notes, observations, suggestions, an answer key, and reflections are included.
