Walking in the park can be good for the body and for mathematics skills. Young scholars use an interactive app to investigate the relationship between squares and square roots using a square with adjustable length. The program also...

Square away any doubts about using a new resource. Pupils learn about squares and square roots in the mini-lesson. They complete a worksheet identifying roots of perfect squares up to 400.

Class members explore the estimation of irrational numbers in association with the Pythagorean Theorem. The first lesson of this module challenges pupils to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find unknown side lengths. When the length is not...

Show your class that not all equations are linear. The lesson asks learners to solve simple quadratic and cubic equations using square and cube roots. Problems include equations with no solutions. 

Build on your classes' understanding of irrational numbers by comparing their values. The 13th lesson in the 25-part module has individuals estimate values of both perfect and non-perfect roots. They finish by graphing these numbers on a...

Loaded with concepts ranging from multiplying decimals to converting units to solving problems using the order of operations, a thorough practice packet is perfect for a fifth or sixth grade math classroom.

Where did that formula come from? Lead pupils on a journey through completing the square to discover the creation of the quadratic formula. Individuals use the quadratic formula to solve quadratic equations and compare the method to...

Investigate the meaning of the Pythagorean Theorem through modeling. After comparing the area of the square of each side, individuals cut triangles and squares to facilitate the comparison.

A neat and organized formula handout makes the circle go round, doesn't it? Full of higher algebra topics, formulas and rules, graphs and definitions—there is a way to support everyone in Algebra II or Pre-Calculus. 

Patterns in math emerge from seemingly random places. Learners explore the patterns for factoring the sum and differences of perfect roots. Analyzing these patterns helps young mathematicians develop the polynomial identities.

It's time for them to show you what they've learned! The review provides a sampling of the different concepts learned throughout the eight-part series. Learners solve equations by combining like terms, applying the distributive property,...

So many rules and so little time. Make it easy and provide all the exponent and radical rules in one place as an easy reference guide. All of the properties come with several examples to show how the rules apply to different problems. 

Enjoy these straightforward and simple worksheet pages that practice with different denominators. The practice starts simple with adding fractions together and then works on a recipe that needs to be tripled. 

Now that the practice is over, see if young mathematicians can utilize their new skills on finding common denominators and adding fractions. The assessment contains one map challenge and follows with skills practice. 

This task develops students' number sense of squares and square roots. They are to find an approximation of a less obvious square root of a number to see where it would fall on a number line. To do this, they must examine perfect squares...

This task asks students to estimate the square root of 800 without using a calculator. To do it, they must examine perfect squares that are higher and lower than 800. Aligns with 8.NS.A.

Practice finding the approximate value of square roots by thinking about perfect squares.

Practice finding the approximate value of square roots by thinking about perfect squares. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video, or receive hints.
