Students use the Pythagorean Theorem to explore sailboat design. In this Pythagorean Theorem lesson, two sides of a triangular sail are measured, and the theorem is used to calculate the third side. A worksheet, bulletin board design,...

Students explore the concept of graphing stations.  In this graphing stations lesson, students head to various teacher set-up stations involving slope, point-slope, standard form, parallel lines, etc.  Students work problems at...

Students explore the concept of linear regression. In this linear regression lesson plan, students do a Barbie bungee activity where they collect linear data. Students plot their data using a scatter plot. Students determine a line of...

In this order of operations worksheet, students evaluate twelve expressions using the order of operations.  The solutions are provided.

In this algebra worksheet, students solve problems following the order of operation. They identify the properties of integers. There are 3 questions with an answer key.

Pupils multiply inequalities by negative. In this algebra lesson, students solve inequalities and graph their solutions on a number line. They pay close attention to the negative consequence, which causes the sign to flip.

Ninth graders create graphic calendars from printed sources.

Young scholars examine and discuss typical linear equations, and the difference between a linear and nonlinear equation. They observe examples of linear equations and complete a worksheet.

Learners define and discuss acceleration and how to compute acceleration. They observe examples of computing acceleration, and complete a worksheet using the correct formula.

Learners select a geometric figure and find an example of the figure in their surroundings. They photograph the figure and write a proof to accompany it. They match photos to proofs.

Students duplicate the method that Archimedes used to estimate the value of pi. They complete a data table and find the approximate values of pi for three sets of polygons.

Learners examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.

Students examine the concept of sequences. Students create a sequence using varied starting numbers, multipliers, and add on values. Students practice determining the starting values to use in order to produce a desired sequence.

High schoolers examine tesselllations and their geometric properties. They have a better knowledge of polygons, can identify types of symmetry in tessellations. Also students use visulization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling...

Students think about several of the concepts from fractals, including recursion and self similarity. They use mathematical concepts of line segments, perimeter, area and infinity are used, and skill at pattern recognition is practiced.

Students use the mapping skills to explore New York's Central Park. They examine a map of Central Park to discover its features. After discussing the characteristics of the park, students design their own dream park and draw it to scale.

Learners use batting averages to provide a measure of a player's past success. They use Algebra to calculate required performance to improve the average. Students compare baseball batting statistics early in the season and late in the...

Ninth graders translate sentences into equations. They translate equations into sentences. They solve real life problems using verbal models to write equations. They create a problem solution graphic organizer in their journals.

Students compare and order fractions and decimals using a number line. They use rules of conversion to determine equivalencies competing problems accurately and plot points on the number line that represent the correct order of the...
