If two is company and three's a crowd, then what's e? Scholars observe how changes in the base affect the graph of a logarithmic function. They then graph the natural logarithm function and learn that all logarithmic functions can be...

Examine how immigrants have changed the environment of the United States. Individually, middle schoolers will take a pre- and post-test to assess their reading comprehension. In groups, they compare and contrast the religions of...

Learn how to represent functions in multiple ways. Learners analyze functions as equations, graphs, and verbal descriptions. The analysis includes intercepts, behavior, domain, and range. The module of seven lessons makes up the third...

Discover an important property of linear functions. Learners use the slope formula to calculate the rates of change of linear functions. They find that linear functions have constant rates of change and use this property to determine if...

Students solve quadratic equations using graphs. In this algebra instructional activity, students factor quadratic equations and graph their answer. They discuss the shape of their graph based on the function.

Middle-schoolers explore the concept linear equations. They use the internet to navigate through videos and problems. Pupils problem solve to determine rates of change, slope, and x and y-intercepts.

Are you rooting for your high schoolers to learn about rational exponents? In the third installment of a 35-part module, pupils first learn the meaning of 2^(1/n) by estimating values on the graph of y = 2^x and by using algebraic...

Students solve systems of equations with fluency. In this algebra lesson, students graph, use elimination and substitution to solve systems of equations. They identify the point of intersection using algebra.

Perform operations to add, subtract, multiply and divide matrices. Then solve problems with vectors using matrices. A three day lesson: Matrix Madness, Mystical Matrices, and Decode the Encode. The last lesson has prizes that the class...

Students graph lines using the slope and y-intercept. In this algebra instructional activity, students create data using tables and equations. They use their data to make predictions and draw conclusion.

Looking for a fun and interactive way to explore bovine biology? Learners read a brief informational text (included for printing) before participating in several cross-curricular activities. First, grab their attention with a hilarious...

I bet the kids in your class will love to eat their vegetables after an engaging instructional activity about edible plants. They read information about vegetables and edible plants, sort vocabulary words, identify plant parts, measure...

Students master the gathering, averaging and graphing of data. They practice conversion to metric measures. They gain fluency in the use of technology tools for math operations.

Fifth graders define words. They create a dichotomous key. After carefully examining pill bugs, 5th graders record observations. They compare and contrast habitats of pillbugs.

A piece of this and a piece of that, add domain restrictions and create a piecewise function. Young scholars explore piecewise functions with and without context. Functions include both linear and quadratic parts. The module is the...

Pupils explore Egyptian mummification and burial practices. They conduct research on gods, goddesses, afterlife, and mummification. Students dissect and mummify a frog "pharaoh and create a tomb wall for their frog "pharaoh."

Learners multiply decimals and/or mixed numbers. They explore the effects of multiplying decimals and mixed numbers. They practice estimating answers when a number is multiplied by a decimal or mixed number.

Students compare and contrast a human body to a cow. Using a diagram, they label and identify the functions of the cow's numerous parts. In groups, they create a Venn Diagram to compare the various types of cows with one another. They...
