Integrated / Applied Math

Grades 4-9; 29 activities—229 pages; A favorite toy becomes a scientific tool in this one-of-a-kind book developed in conjunction with LEGO®. Students explore concepts of mechanical and structural engineering as they use the colorful bricks to make levers, gears, inclined planes and more.

Grades 3-5; 29 activities—192 pages; Math and engineering are explored as students determine weight-bearing capabilities of paper tubes, make polyhedral shapes out of toothpicks and clay, and measure geometric shapes on the playground. Engaging activities improve measurement and geometry skills.

Grades 3-5; 20 activities – 150 pages; Can chewing gum in class really be learning? It can when students see the change in mass and realize the amount of sweeteners they ingest. Students will actively learn about their own bodies, including fingerprints, heartbeats, and toes.

Grades 5-9; 23 activities—184 pages; Students explore concepts of conservation of energy, forces, and power as they weigh each other using a seesaw, have tug-o-wars with pulleys, determine how bicycle gears work, and construct simple catapults. Hands-on activities show how machines transfer energy.

Grades 5-9; 27 activities—127 pages; Marbles, old shoes, rubber balls, bananas, and M&Ms® provide students with innovative experiences that strengthen their math and process skills. In this AIMS classic, engaging activities show the correlation of mathematics and science in a unique, exciting way.
