Introduction to Conditional Probability
Here is a turnkey lesson that walks young statisticians through the development and uses of conditional probability. From dice games to surveys, Venn diagrams to frequency tables, the class learns how a given can effect the overall...
Curated OER
More Prisms/Nets
Students calculate the volume and surface are of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson, students use the nets to prove their calculations of shapes. They identify the different parts of a solid using the nets.
Curated OER
Math Games for Skills and Concepts
A 27-page packet full of math games and activities builds on algebra, measurement, geometry, fractional, and graphing skills. Young mathematicians participate in math games collaboratively, promoting teamwork and skills practice.
Curated OER
Mandalas, Polygons and Symmetry
Students create a geometric pattern using mandalas, polygons and symmetry. For this geometry lesson, students analyze the mathematics involved in making the mandalas, including the shapes and symmetry. Students create their own mandalas...
Curated OER
Cones, Cylinders, Spheres
Students classify polygons by name and shape. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the lateral surface of each conic. They differentiate between cones, cylinders and spheres.
Curated OER
Surface Area of Spheres
High schoolers identify the properties of a sphere. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the surface area of spheres using the formula derived by nets. They identify the radius and diameter of the sphere.
Curated OER
Special Right Triangles
Learners identify the different parts of a right triangle. In this geometry lesson plan, students use the Pythagorean Theorem to identify missing sides and angles of a right triangle. They work with irrational and rational roots.
Curated OER
Pythagorean Theorem Spreadsheet
Studetns use a spreadsheet to organize data on the sides of a triangle. They use the Pythagorean Theorem and the If then spreadsheet function to decide whether the three sides determine a right triangle. Young scholars work individual...
Curated OER
Adding Polynomials with Algebra Tiles
Students practice adding polynomials using algebra tiles. Students view a PowerPoint presentation in which they are introduced to the concept of modeling polynomials using a scaled down version of algebra tiles. Students walk through...
Curated OER
Using Excel to Draw a Best Fit Line
Students create line graphs for given data in Microsoft Excel. Students follow step by step instructions on how to create their graph, including how to create a trend line. Students print graphs without trend lines and manually draw...
