Modeling Population Growth
Students collect data on population growth. In this statistics lesson, students graph their data and make predictions. They find the linear regression and the best fit line.

One Good Turn Deserves Another
Students make observations about shapes and 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional objects. They conduct observations and make predictions regarding transformations of simple geometric shapes. They identify shapes that occur in household items.

Irregular Fractals
High schoolers explore the concept of irregular fractals. In this irregular fractals activity, students discuss how to find fractal dimensions through teacher led discussion. High schoolers calculate fractal dimensions of various fractals.
Curated OER
Patterns In Fractals
Students find number patterns in the generation of several different types of fractals.

Patterns in Fractals
Learners explore the concept of fractal patterns. For this fractal pattern lesson, students use an applet about the Hilbert Curve to answer questions about rectangles and other polygons. Learners derive the fractal pattern when dividing...

Mathematicians of the Month
Seventh graders become familiar with the history and times which influenced a featured mathematician each month. Through Internet research, they gather information about a different mathematician each month. Students solve mathematical...
Curated OER
Pattern Matching
First graders examine how to determine the lines of symmetry in pictures, shapes, and patterns by completing the lessons in this unit. They make patterns that show a line of symmetry and describe it using their own language.
Curated OER
Houses
Third graders use a number of problem solving strategies in this unit of lessons. They determine how to draw and model three-dimensional objects, use co-ordinate systems, determine probability of events, and identify paths of simple...
