Students graph ordered pairs to model the relationship between numbers. After observing the patterns in ordered pairs, they describe the relationship, and create graphs from a data table. Students describe intervals in the graph, and...

Students review the principles of graphing linear functions. They discuss plotting points on a coordinate plane, solving using a table, and then graphing. Students solve problems and determine the slope of the line, y-intercept and if...

Students in a college algebra class use graphs to solve inequalities. Using the coordinate graphing system, they represent the relationship between x and y intercepts. They practice solving equations with complex numbers and locate...

Ninth graders identify numbers as rational or irrational. Using calculators estimation, and factoring methods, 9th graders compute the square root of numbers. They graph numbers in sequential order and round numbers integers to the...

Students solve 2 X 2 systems graphically and algebraically. They investigate parallel systems. They solve application problems using 2 X 2 systems.

Seventh graders create a graph of their Christmas gifts. They develop categories, compute fractional and decimal parts for each category, identify the number of degrees to represent each fractional part, and create a circle graph to...

First graders explore counting and classification. They sort leaves, create graphs, write sentences for the data in the graphs, develop graphs for shapes, favorite animals, birthdays, and participate in a die prediction game.

Students write verbal expressions into algebraic expressions and solve the expressions. They determine who wins a race by determining the algebraic expression.

Students conduct a survey. In this math lesson, students design and conduct a survey about Thanksgiving foods. Students display the collected data in a graph and use the graph to determine what food to serve for a Thanksgiving meal.

Students take a survey then use the information gained from the survey to help plan a typical Thanksgiving dinner for our last day of class. They create a graph which corresponds the the data gathered during interviews.

Students identify the slope of a line as negative, positive, zero or undefined. In this algebra lesson, students identify the distance versus the time using graphs of linear equation. They use the robot and the CEENBoT program to...
