GK-12 Lesson Plans and Classroom Activities
As a result of this five year program, graduate fellows and teachers created numerous innovative lesson plans and classroom activities for use learning about a wide range of topics and grade levels. These resources are organized below subject and topic in accordance with the Minnesota Academica Standards for Science and Mathematices. Please use these resources and adapt them for the students in your classroom or for different grade levels. We hope they help inspire both classroom teachers and students to become engaged in exploring mathematics and science!
