Math Worksheet: Graphs Worksheet
In this math graphs worksheet, students study 5 large boxes filled with different geometric shapes. Students make a graph, tallying how many of each shape they see.
Illustrative Mathematics
Complex number patterns
Start off with the definition of the imaginary number i, then have your class practice simplifying expressions involving powers of i and look for patterns. See how the cyclic nature of powers of i translate to sums of powers of i.
