Learners create charts and graphs using a spreadsheet. They chart the number of each gift given day by day from the song, "The Twelve Days of Christmas." They create a bar graph and a circle graph from their data on the spreadsheet.

Young scholars analyze and integrate mathematical concepts within the context of social studies. They gather, present and analyze information on a bar graph, pie chart, etc. Students compute ratios. They demonstrate that ratios have...

Students demonstrate addition. In this simple computation instructional activity, students are introduced to the concept of addition through using manipulatives. Students solve simple addition problems on a worksheet.

Through a variety of physical and theoretical situations, learners are led through the development of some of the deepest concepts in high school mathematics. Complex numbers, the fundamental theorem of algebra and rational exponents...

Students determine the level of accuracy needed for computations involving measurements and irrational numbers. They use the correct number of digits in computation to achieve an appropriate unit or level of accuracy when solving...

Students discover and perfect methods of calculation based on rewriting, simplifying, and logarithmic L'Hopital when the traditional applications fail to produce a result.

Twelfth graders calculate interest on purchases bought with a credit card. They use the formula I=PRT to find the interest. In pairs, they use a flyer to calculate the interest for electronic items.

Eighth graders recognize or compute decimal equivalents of fractions. They recognize or compute the percent equivalent of decimal fractions. They relate fraction, decimal, and percent equivalents and recognize decimal equivalents.

Students jog for three minutes at the beginning of the class, increasing one minute per week for ten weeks. They count each lap as one mile on the Appalachian Trail, computing the class average and plotting their progress on a class map.

Learners identify basic skills needed to succeed in the world of work, including communication skills, computation skills, problem solving skills, and interpersonal skills.

students are the opportunity to enhance their computation skills using real life statistics associated with the Space Shuttle. Skills emphasized include working with fractions, decimals, percents, ratios and proportions, comparing units,...

In this analysis worksheet, students solve accounting problems when provided with variables to be used in computations. Using data provided, students must answer questions showing they understand key terms such as fixed and variable costs.

Students create an illustration of how to solve math problems. They use appropriate resources for solving the problems. Students have to demonstrate how drawing diagrams and using pictures can help them by using KidPix. On Slide One,...

Students practice performing various accounting functions. Given analysis records, they prepare cost and revenue analysis based on specific criteria. They complete handouts and review their answers as a class. They also discuss the...

Learners demonstrate basic construction skills by building a free standing structure, using predetermined materials. They compute cost of structure by using multiplication skills or calculator.

Students examine their home and calculates the amount of ventilation found. They also compute the surface area of different objects. They determine what is needed to reduce the amount of radon entering the home.

Students complete an experiment in which they measure the radon level in their home. They examine the different types of units of measurement and practice using them throughout the activity. They calculate surface area on objects as well.

Students complete a word problem to determine the cost of gasoline per mile of their virtual field trip. They determine the travel time and gasoline costs for two routes and record the information on a data sheet. They check their work...

Students estimate how many children in their class it would take to equal the mass of one adult bear. They then weigh and record their measurement on a chart to check their estimate.

Students estimate and compute with rational numbers. They compare, order and convert among fractions, decimals and percents. Students analyze problems to determine if there is sufficient or extraneous data to solve.

Students, in groups, choose three countries from which to investigate exchange rates versus the US dollar. Using Internet research they follow daily exchange rates and compute the percentage change. They compile data and prepare and...

High schoolers examine graphs of three statistics and use basic math to compute their own. They evaluate the implications of manipulating data and whether statistics are appropriate for creating policy.

Students demonstrate and describe the effect of multiplying or dividing by a fraction less than or greater than one. They create and explain a variety of equivalent ratios that represent a given situation. Students draw a picture of...

Eighth graders graph two inequalities with a single variable. They include drawing the intersection or union of inequalities on a number line. Students solve the linear equations using properties of equality and inequality. The...
