Sixth graders use centimeter cubes to build structures and then compare and contrast the patterns they see.

Learners explore the concept of absolute value inequalities and equations. In this absolute value inequalities and equations lesson, students discuss how to solve absolute value inequalities and equations through teacher led discussion...

Students use the digital camera, identify geometric shapes (in nature as well as man-made), and gain a better understanding of geometric vocabulary. They search for and recognize geometric shapes in unusual settings

High schoolers use an interactive website or cd rom to graph equations. The lesson plan is not very clearly written. The use of the website is essential or the educational software that can be purchased from the Prentice Hall publisher.

Seventh graders use daily temperature models to find the mean, mode and median.

Third graders model the tag and recapture of bears and use proportions to estimate the population of the bears in their forest. This is a statistical sampling method used by scientists and naturalists to determine population numbers.

High schoolers explore the relevance of water quality monitoring in relation to a local wetland ecosystem. They conduct standard water quality tests using wet tests and CBL calculators and probes. Student record and interpret the results.

Eighth graders resolve vector problems without the knowledge of math.  In this vectors lesson students with poor math skills get a chance of passing the course. 

Students identify, describe, count, tally, and graph life found in one square foot of land.

Students study the nature of a satellite's orbit around the Earth.

Students investigate the concepts that are related to finance and how it is used in the world. They take part in activities that are focused around the use of a spreadsheet while using a T-chart to simulate a ledger of credits and debits.

Seventh graders develop an examineing of absolute value through real world situations. They develop an examineing of when absolute value can be used in a given situation.

Students in a teacher education class address consumer related issues involving packaging. Using volume, surface area and graphs, they create a package for a given volume of a product. They design modifications for this lesson and to...

Students determine the amount of earth that needs to be removed from the Mississippi and the amount of time it takes the Army Corps of Engineers to complete a dredging project. Given specific dimensions of a channel, calculations are...

Students engage in a lesson that is concerned with the concept of a derivative. They define the concept of a derivative and then complete an assignment that is included in the lesson. Students then graph the derivative and draw its...

A lesson plan where students will interpret the trigonometric functions in terms of the unit circle, graph a sinusoidal function, and use a sinusoidal function to make interpretations in a modeling context.

This is the first of two algebra lesson plans from Annenberg Learning. Find plans to teach learners how to factor trinomials. This lesson plan is part of a larger workshop for teachers that offer insights into teaching algebra.

Lesson 3 of 4 for Passport to Advanced Math. Students will solve systems of equations in two variables in which one equation is linear and the other equation is quadratic or another nonlinear equation; relate properties of the function f...

This task presents a challenging exercise in both algebraic manipulations and seeing structure in algebraic expressions. Aligns with A-SSE.B.3.a and A-SSE.A.2.

In a video game called Snake, a player moves a snake through a square region in the plane, trying to eat the white pellets that appear. This task has students approach a function via both a recursive and an algebraic definition, in the...

In this task about the height of baseballs thrown into the air, students are asked to compare characteristics of two quadratic functions that are each represented differently, one as the graph of a quadratic function and one written out...

Students will best fit equations to a curve to find the area of a logo or image. Images will include McDonalds, Nike, and the Motorola logo. This lesson plan was created as a result of the Girls Engaged in Math and Science, GEMS Project...
