If members of your class wonder where they can use the math they learn in middle school, let them discover the answer. Learners apply geometry concepts of scale and measure to calculate the costs of framing a house addition.

A thorough math test divides the content into two 40-minutes sections, covering material through algebra and geometry. Problems incorporate analysis and applied problem solving.

Using a calendar, basketballs, and tennis balls, young mathematicians determine the common multiples of four and six. Individuals drag and drop the balls onto the correct dates each sport will be played, allowing them to see which days...

How much does it cost to add more mangos? An interactive allows users to see how the price of frozen yogurt changes based on the number of scoops and the number of slices of mango. Learners then answer a set of challenge questions...

A resource fit for a queen. Scholars recognize and continue a pattern in towers people are building for a queen. They write and use an algebraic expression for the number of tiles in the towers.

Antarctica is a big place, large enough to provide ample opportunities to learn about math. A two-week unit teaches middle school mathematics concepts using project-based learning. The resource covers functions, geometry (area,...

Fill your mind as you fill virtual water bottles. Pupils use an interactive to find the amount of water that can fit in given containers. Writing and evaluating an algebraic expression helps with this task.

Shopping for a resource on writing algebraic expressions? Look no further. Pupils use an interactive to drag shirts and pants out of a shopping bag. They create and evaluate an expression to represent the cost of the clothes.

After a full day of selling lemonade, three friends split the cost of the profit money. If the total profit was $34.20, how much will each friend get?

A football-themed interactive focuses on integers. Seven questions challenge scholars to show what they know by way of short answers, multiple-choice, and true or false. An open-ended question followed by a discussion concludes the...

Ten questions make up an interactive all about integers. Scholars answer multiple choice, short answer, and discussion questions using a 4x4 chessboard and dominoes.

A six-question interactive takes mathematicians to Lollipop Land where they manipulate lollipop trees to make equivalent ratios.  Question types include multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion. 

Nine questions make up an interactive that challenges scholars to identify new prices after discounts. Question types include fill in the blank and multiple choice. A fully-functional tool assists participants in solving word problems....

Nine questions—multiple choice and fill in the blank—challenge mathematicians to solve money word problems. Looking closely at prices, scholars use a formula to identify percent increases and decreases based on an original and new price....

Mathematicians go on a virtual shopping trip in an interactive designed to boost the concept of estimation. Scholars read and answer five questions—multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion—with help from a drag-and-drop shopping...

Mathematicians manipulate a mountain of money to solve six questions about simple interest. Question types include several multiple-choice and one discussion. 

Students gather information about the Melbourne Cup horse race in Australia. Then they study the geometry and physics behind the design of a racetrack. Students also work in small groups to problem solve and design their own board games...

Young scholars read The Greedy Triangle and discuss geometric solids. In this geometry lesson plan, students list the geo-solids in the world and create a graphic organizer to show where geo-solids exist.

Just like a painting or the symbols on a flag, quilts can express ideas that reflect a cultural context, space, and time. The class discusses the history of quilt making throughout US history and what different types of quilts mean. They...

Your geometry learners will appreciate this net for a square pyramid. Copy, cut, and manipulate to explore the surface area or volume of a square pyramid.
