Your learners combine their knowledge of real and imaginary numbers and matrices in an activity containing thirty lessons, two assessments (mid-module and end module), and their corresponding rubrics. Centered on complex numbers and...

Fifth graders identify a set of data from a real world problem. In this statistics lesson, 5th graders identify the range, mode, median and mean using some manipulatives. They write words randomizing the letters.

Investigate exponential growth and decay. A set of six activities has pupils collecting and researching data in a variety of situations involving exponential relationships. They model these situations with exponential functions and solve...

Challenge young mathematicians to buy classroom supplies by staying within the means of a $1,000 budget. The mathematical activity provides learners with the opportunity to decide what items from the supply list would benefit a class of...

Assist your class with each angle of geometry as they use exterior angles to form linear pairs with adjacent interior angles. They cover multiple vocabulary terms and work practice problems, complete with justifications, before...

Students practice using visuals to solve math problems. In this math manipulative lesson, students utilize pattern blocks to participate in a class game in which geometric shapes touch other player's pieces. Students gain points based on...

Learners collect data by playing a game that illustrates the delicate ecological balance between fishing, fishing regulations and fish populations. They graph and analyze the data and explain how economic decisions can affect the...

Wow! Put on that thinking cap and solve multi-step equations. To solve equations, learners review the use of the distributive property and combining like terms. This three-day lesson comes with about 20 pages of worksheets, warm-ups,...

Learners investigate the Legend of the Tower of Hanoi and complete mathematical problems related to the legend. They play the Tower of Hanoi game online in order to discover the number pattern involved. They solve problems using the...

Your learners will examine probability through experiments and dice games. Using a computer, your class will perform simple experiments to collect and analyze data to determine the probability of different experimental results. Learners...

Students differentiate between theoretical and experimental probability. In this probability lesson, students create a puzzle and calculate the probability of an event occurring. They use problems dealing real life scenarios.

Learners collect data and make predictions. In this probability instructional activity, students perform experiments calculating the chance of an event occurring. They draw conclusion based on their data.

Students play a memory game as they explore reasoning. In this algebra lesson, students identify concepts using pictures and words. They model real life scenarios using hands on manipulatives.

Learners rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. In this algebra lesson, students write linear equations using the slope and y intercept. They write equations given two points that are on the line.

Students see that there are mathematical rules that can affect our use of the English language. Calculate the probability of picking any letter at random from a piece of English literature.

Tenth graders explore parallel and perpendicular lines.  In this geometry lesson, 10th graders investigate the relationships associated with parallel lines and transversals, perpendicular lines, and the angles formed by these...
