In this Algebra II instructional activity, 11th graders solve problems involving the laws of exponents, including fractional exponents, solve radical equations, and graph radical functions.  The ten page instructional activity...

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders shift the absolute value function horizontally and vertically, stretch and shrink, and reflect parent function. The two page worksheet contains three problems. Answers are not provided. 

What can we find out about the data from the way it is shaped? Looking at displays that are familiar from previous grades, the class forms meaningful conjectures based upon the context of the data. The introductory lesson plan...

What linear equation will fit this data, and how close is it? Through discussion and partner work, young mathematicians learn the procedure to determine a regression line in order to make predictions from the data. 

Can your class write linear equations three different ways? Here is a study guide that includes slope-intercept, standard, and point-slope forms. Learners are given the slope and a point on the line, or two points and are asked to write...

Learn about patterns in residual plots with an informative math instructional activity. Two examples make connections between the appearance of a residual plot and whether a linear model is the best model apparent. The problem set...

What function will describe the insect population growth? Pairs or small groups work together to determine which type of function and specific function will model given scenarios. The scenarios differentiate between linear,...

The Function That Shall Not Be Named? The eighth installment of a 35-part module uses a WhatPower function to introduce scholars to the concept of a logarithmic function without actually naming the function. Once pupils are...

Won't the other properties be sad to learn that they're not the most important? The 11th installment of a 35-part module is essentially a continuation of the previous lesson, using logarithm tables to develop properties. Scholars...

Explore logarithms and logarithmic regression. Young mathematicians first learn about inverse functions and about the logarithm function family. They take their newfound knowledge to use logarithmic functions to model situations and...

Extend the concept of exponents to irrational numbers. In the fifth installment of a 35-part module, individuals use calculators and rational exponents to estimate the values of 2^(sqrt(2)) and 2^(pi). The final goal is to show that the...

Through discussions and journaling, classmates determine methods to associate types of functions with data presented in a table. Small groups then work with examples and exercises to refine their methods and find functions that work...

This worksheet begins with an explanation of how to add and subtract positive and negative integers. Learners solve and complete 20 different problems that include these types of problems. First, they fill in each blank with the correct...
