Ninth graders investigate the functional relationship of different environmental phenomena. In this math lesson, 9th graders create models of various natural disasters. They use logarithmic and exponential functions to interpret...

Young scholars study exponential functions. In this exponential growth lesson, students conduct a simulation in which a population grows at random but predictable rate. Young scholars compare and contrast linear and exponential...

Fourth graders explore patterns by participating in a class math activity. In this early algebra lesson, 4th graders utilize a die and chart to keep record of a snake game in which students must utilize a math function to solve a problem...

Students participate in an activity to simulate direct variation. In this oil spills on land lesson, students participate in a simulation using toilet paper and vegetable oil to explore the characteristics of direct variation. They...

Pupils in a teacher education program enhance their awareness of patterns. They discover how to support their students in developing this skill in mathematical terms. They role play the role of a K-2 student and collect images from...

Students relate what they know about boundaries on sports courts to explore range of space. In this domain and range lesson, students identify numbers needed to calculate ranges and use the problem solving strategy of making a table.

Sixth graders apply the division and multiplication of decimals to convert dollars to various international currencies. In a travel simulation activity, they convert money, distance, and temperatures. During their "trip," students...

Students take part in various activities ranging from creating a human clock, to small group problem solving to reinforce the concept of telling time accurately to five minutes on an analog clock.

Help your class look for patterns as they create their own arithmetic and geometric sequences. Engage learners with an introductory discussion on sequences and use the applet to let them explore how sequences are formed. Teachers might...
