Combine algebraic and geometric strategies to find solutions. The task asks learners to find the coordinates of a third vertex of a triangle to create a triangle with a specific area. The project is a set of seven problems that...

Your learners explore growing patterns by describing, extending, creating, and evaluating practical pattern problems in this three-day collaborative unit. Beginning with concrete patterns and function tables to extend and...

Math is all about finding patterns. In this ask, scholars first investigate a sequence formed by squaring the sum of the digits in the previous term. They go on to investigate a second sequence and write an algebraic expression for this...

Find patterns in the process instead of the result. Learners convert series of decimals and fractions identifying patterns along the way. The lesson includes nine problem tasks with progressively more involved patterns.

Seventh graders identify and find missing patterns. In this algebra instructional activity, 7th graders investigate numbers and sequences and complete the pattern. They make a chart and discuss similarities and differences.

Students write the algebraic equation to determine the number of weeks money must be saved to purchase a yo-yo. In this algebra lesson, students create a pattern of one penny surrounded by six pennies. They continue the pattern and...

Learners analyze, create, and record repeating patterns. In this geometry activity, students create shapes using patterns and keep track of the different shapes. They incorporate transformation and reflections into their patterns.

Students solve problems using patterns. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the relation, domain and range of a function. They graph functions using coordinate pairs.

Students identify patterns and compute formulas to solve the problems. In this algebra lesson, students come up with a rule given a pattern, and analyze the relationship between data and graphs.

Thank goodness we have calculators to compute logarithms. Pupils use calculators to create logarithmic tables to estimate values and use these tables to discover patterns (properties). The second half of the lesson has scholars use given...

Play a game of capture the points. Young scholars receive a number line with specific points graphed and must write an inequality that captures all the points. The second task of the algebra project is to write an inequality with...

Young scholars model quadratic and linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve word problems using equations. They create scatter plots and make predictions using correlations.

Students factor trinomials and quadratics. In this algebra lesson, students solve quadratics when the leading coefficient is one. They use a special factoring pattern to solve the trinomial.

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,...

Do you know how the population has grown of your community? Can you predict the population over the next half century? Can we find an algebraic model that matches our data? These along with many more questions can be researched by...

Students collect and analyze data using a graph. In this algebra lesson, students explain their findings orally and with a graph. They use their knowledge to solve real life scenarios.

Sixth graders determine appropriate scales when graphing data. In this graphing lesson plan, 6th graders use an the applet "Graph It" to determine what is an appropriate scale for their data.

Students solve problems by identifying exponential growth and decay and differentiating between patterns, relation and functions. In this algebra lesson, students apply concepts of exponential growth to solve problems.

Young scholars define patterns, relation and function. In this algebra lesson, students find the slope of a line and write equations of line. They model the slope using real life scenarios.

Students identify the location of coordinate pairs of an image. For this geometry lesson, students perform transformation and identify the image and pre-image point of location. They apply the concept of fractals to...

Introduce starting space scientists to the electromagnetic spectrum, expecially the portion of visible light. Teach them about wavelength and frequesncy. Then give them a roll of adding machine tape and a manila folder to make a...

Graph inequalities and discuss the difference in their slopes. Learners observe rate of change as they compare linear, quadratic, and cubic functions.

Students explain why a transiting planet causes a periodic dimming in the light from its parent star. They determine the radius of a planet, and its orbital distance, by analyzing data and manipulating equations. Students compare the...

Put out by Texas Instruments, this lesson involves learners in an activity focused on adding polynomials, solving equations, factoring trinomials, and expanding binomials. A TI-89 calculator is needed to complete this lesson.
