See How FREE Gizmos WorkBeam to Moon (Ratios and Proportions)
Apply ratios and proportions to find the weight of a person on the moon (or on another planet). Weigh an object on Earth and on the moon and weigh the person on Earth. Then set up and solve...
Lesson Info Launch GizmoMultiplying with Decimals
Multiply two decimals using a dynamic area model. On a grid, shade the region with width equal to one of the decimals and height equal to the other decimal and find the area of the region.
Lesson Info Launch GizmoPercents, Fractions, and Decimals
Compare a quantity represented by an area with its percent, fraction, and decimal forms.
Lesson Info Launch GizmoEstimating Population Size
Adjust the number of fish in a lake to be tagged and the number of fish to be recaptured. Use the number of tagged fish in the catch to estimate the number of fish in the lake.
Lesson Info Launch GizmoPart-to-part and Part-to-whole Ratios
Compare a ratio represented by an area with its percent, fraction, and decimal forms.
Lesson Info Launch GizmoPercent of Change
Apply markups and discounts using interactive "percent rulers." Improve number sense for percents with this dynamic, visual tool. Reinforce the original cost (or original price) as the...
Lesson Info Launch GizmoPercents and Proportions
FREE with no time limit!
Find a part from the percent and whole, a percent from the part and whole, or a whole from the part and percent using a graphic model.
Lesson Info Launch GizmoProportions and Common Multipliers

About STEM Cases
Students assume the role of a scientist trying to solve a real world problem. They use scientific practices to collect and analyze data, and form and test a hypothesis as they solve the problems.
Each STEM Case uses realtime reporting to show live student results.
Introduction to the Heatmap
STEM Cases take between 30-90 minutes for students to complete, depending on the case.
Student progress is automatically saved so that STEM Cases can be completed over multiple sessions.
Multiple grade-appropriate versions, or levels, exist for each STEM Case.
Each STEM Case level has an associated Handbook. These are interactive guides that focus on the science concepts underlying the case.
