Curated OER
Our Solar System and Seasons
Sixth graders investigate the relative diameters of planets and distances between them and the cause for seasons on Earth using the 5-E Learning Model. They appreciate the size and distances involved with objects in the real universe....

Circumferences, Diameters, and Radii
Students explore circumferences, diameters, and radii. In this math lesson plan, students measure circumferences in inches and compute radii and diameters, given different circumferences.
Curated OER
Math: Arcs and Chords
Students draw diagrams demonstrating how it is possible to two central angles to be congruent and their minor arcs are not congruent. In groups, they illustrate theorems with their constructed circles, create diameters of circles that...
