In this asymptote worksheet, students compute limits, graph vertical asymptotes, and find the slope of the secant line. This one-page worksheet contains six multi-step worksheets.

The article for this activity no longer accessible through the links in the lesson plan, but can be found in the National Center for Biotechnology Information website. After reading it, environmental science high schoolers answer...

Elementary schoolers play a math game using a Tic-Tac-Toe Board. This simple idea can be used with virtually any grade level. A team of learners are the "O's," and the other is the team of "X's." Each time a team gets a problem correct,...

The first activity in this resource has learners computing the mean and standard deviation of two different data sets and drawing conclusions based on their results. The second activity has them using a dice-rolling simulation to...

Twelfth graders practice filling out IRS 1040 EZ forms. They discuss various ways people pay taxes. They assess the importance of W-2 forms and apply skills using the IRS tax table to compute how much money is owed or returned.

With this interactive lesson, learners compute the surface area of rectangular prisms. They visit an online investigation applet and record data on the provided handout. Pair this lesson with the volume lesson by the same publisher as an...

Analyze data on a graph to answer three questions after a robot race. Learners practice comparing ratios and reading points on a graph. Answers may vary on the last question based on accuracy of graphing. Use the lesson along with...

Sixth graders measure circumference and diameter to the nearest eighth of an inch, record measurements on a spreadsheet, and use the internet to complete a "scavenger hunt" of facts concerning pi.

Third graders will be able to cut and paste from Internet into a word document with 100 percent accuracy. They use their research to write a 1-2 paragraph paper about their animal with 90 percent accuracy.

In this least squares instructional activity, students solve 6 different problems that include the least squares of numbers. First, they plot 3 points on the axes shown and draw in their best approximating line. Then, students estimate...

Hydrologists create a concept map about how water is used and a sentence strip defining water and describing its unique properties. Small groups work together to fill a small milk carton and compute the mass of water inside. The next...

Seventh graders use highest and lowest points of land elevation around the world to find the differences. Sea level is zero, so students be operating with positive and negative numbers. After students find the information on the...

Your soon-to-be statisticians play a game to understand the difference between independent and dependent experiments and probability. They draw colored cubes from a bag and then, by either replacing the cube in the bag, or not, for each...

Young scholars examine their classroom to find examples of various types of shapes. After identifying and describing the various shapes, they draw as many as they can on a piece of paper. They organize them into an image based on their...

Learners find the mean, median, and mode for each of four data sets. They are given two line plots, and compute the median and mode of the shown data. They find the median and mode for three stem and leaf plots. They solve two word...

In this integral worksheet, students compute definite integrals, sketch line segments and shade regions for the integrals. This one-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

For this antiderivative worksheet, students compute antiderivatives, as well as definite and indefinite integrals. This one-page worksheet contains approximately six multi-step problems.

In this Pi handout, 10th graders are provided with a brief history of Pi as well as mnemonics they can use to remember the digits of Pi. There are additional links on this page that provide access to more interesting facts about Pi

All 20 of the problems on the worksheet involve the computation of cubic volume or density. As long as your young scientists can apply the appropriate mathematical formulas, they will succeed in solving these problems. They are not...

You are what you eat! Your statisticians keep a log of what they eat from anywhere between a day to more than a week, keeping track of a variety of nutritional information using a spreadsheet. After analyzing their own data, individuals...

What are the chances of getting your favorite flavor in your fruit snack package? Have your class use the given information to compute their own experimental data using the multiplication rule of independent events and compare it to the...

A question to ask your class is, How fast is your Internet? That depends on the data transfer rate (DTR), which is the unit rate used in this activity. Math students will calculate how long it takes to download a music file and a video...

Students examine mathematicians' notion of fairness in games of chance. They work in pairs to perform three different experiments using macaroni and paper bags. They record their results on charts and compare their data.

Children use the length, width, and height of an object to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism. They observe how to multiply three numbers at a time, and define volume. Pupils observe as the teacher demonstrates how to determine...
