Solving equations in two variables can't be that much harder than solving equations in one variable. Using a balance interactive, scholars solve equations in two variables. They apply inverse operations by adding -x, -y, or -1 as...

Find the right balance between concrete and abstract thinking. After using interactive balances to explore inverse operations, learners solve multi-step equations with variables on both sides. Of course, they can still use the...

Not all interactives are made equal. Scholars use an interactive balance to explore the concept of equality. They place different objects on balances to determine the number of each object needed to balance the scale.

Expand the pupils knowledge of using area models to algebra. The interactive allows learners to use the same procedure of getting partial products when multiplying multi-digit numbers to multiplying polynomials. Scholars see how the...

Develop a solid understanding of multiplication. The interactive provides opportunities for learners to continue building a deep understanding of multiplication. Pupils use the application to find the product of two numbers and find...

A cross-curricular resource teaches and reinforces mathematical concepts with several activities that use parts of a newspaper. Scholars use scavenger hunts to find the different ways math is used in the paper along with using data...

A five-question interactive challenges mathematicians to find a correct tip and total amount using percents five, 12, and 18. A tool with moveable pieces assists participants in locating answers. Types of questions include...

Weathering is not necessarily a result of the weather. Scholars conduct an experiment to explore the effect of surface area and volume on the weathering process. They create their own sugar cube rocks using the same number of cubes—but...

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. 

Pre-algebra—all wrapped up in one place. The eBook contains everything needed to teach a typical Pre-Algebra course. Concepts in the course build upon previously learned concepts, allowing mathematicians to see the connections between...

Apply pattern knowledge to bead patterns. The formative assessment lesson provides pupils the opportunity to show what they know about patterns and functions. Learners take a pre-assessment, then build upon their answers at the beginning...

Take a central look at data. The differentiated lesson plan provides activities for pupils to calculate central tendencies. Scholars begin choosing three central tendency activities from a Tic-Tac-Toe board. Learners then choose from...

Create a similar blueprint. The differentiated lesson has pupils work in teams to create a brochure, scale model, or blueprint of a selected house with some minor changes. Once finished, team members present their final projects to the...

Take a tiered approach to studying waste. The lesson uses Earth Day to present differentiated instruction around using circle and bar graphs. Each group gets a cube based on their tiers and works collaboratively as well as individually...

It all depends upon the independence. The differentiated instruction lesson introduces learners to independent and dependent variables. Using real-world situations, scholars gain a conceptual understanding of the difference between the...

Eight questions challenge mathematicians to multiply decimals. A color-coded tool with movable parts assist participants in answering word problems. Item response types include fill in the blank, multiple-choice, and a discussion. ...

Five word-problems challenge mathematicians to add fractions. Interactive fraction circles assist scholars in problem-solving. Question types include multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion.  

Five questions—multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion—make up an interactive that focuses on decimals as mixed numbers. Moveable blocks assist scholars in finding solutions. 

A five-question interactive focuses on integers and absolute value. A number line shows the distance to aide mathematicians in answering multiple-choice, true or false, and discussion questions.

Watch the money grow daily. Scholars tackle a problem to determine how much money they will have if a dollar grows at 10 percent compounded daily after a month. Using that knowledge, learners notice the difference between varying savings...

Bet classes didn't know playing checkers help with understanding percents. An interesting interactive has pupils consider a series of moves in checkers. It then requires them to answer a set of challenge questions on percentages...

In some cases, decimals are just easier to work with. An easy-to-use interactive shows how to convert percents to decimals. It then challenges learners to answer a set of questions, some of which include percents that are greater than...

Slide into a lesson on proportions. A slider interactive lets users adjust three of the four values in a proportion and automatically updates the fourth value. Scholars use the interactive to help answer a set of challenge questions on...

Don't get it crossed—the resource is a great one. Scholars read and watch a video that explains proportions and cross products. They then use an interactive to determine that cross products are equal and answer a set of challenge...
