An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the properties of a 45-45-90 isosceles right triangle. The applet shows a right triangle that can be resized by dragging any vertex. As it is dragged, the remaining vertices change so that the triangle's angles remain 45 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees The text on the page points out that the sides of a 45-45-90 triangle are always in the ratio of 1 : 2 : root 2 Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

This two-part lesson on 'The Amazing Adaptations of Earth’s Organisms' that aligns with Texas Essential Knowledge & Skills Standards for 4-5th Grade Science and Art. It includes a first lesson where students read a scientific article from Frontiers for Young Minds, then work in expert teams to summarize the article using the jigsaw strategy. Then, in a second lesson, students learn about earth's biomes and a broader range of adaptations of organisms to various environmental challenges, then draw and describe their own organism with "superpower adaptations".
