Students graph inequalities and solve the equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students graph their solutions on a number line and create an inequality for a word problem.

Students identify inverse variations. In this inverse variation lesson, students explore graphs and identify the inverse variation. They write equations for the inverse variation. Students compare and contrast the inverse variation...

Students solve problems by identifying exponential growth and decay and differentiating between patterns, relation and functions. In this algebra lesson, students apply concepts of exponential growth to solve problems.

Students graph systems of linear inequalities. In this linear programming and profit activity, students explore linear programming problems. They graph a feasible region in a linear programming problem and identify the profit lines. ...

Students collect and analyze data using  percent difference. In this algebra lesson, students relate the concepts of algebra to cardiac physiology.

Students calculate the distance between two points using the distance formula. In this geometry lesson, students derive the distance formula using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Students practice writing number sentences. After reading real world problems, they describe the same situation by writing a number sentence. Students use algebra tiles, or counters, to demonstrate the use zero pairs in solving...

Students explore patterns. They observe a video, "Math Monsters." Students determine the next item in a sequence. Students read books about patterns. They discuss patterns in quilts. Students visit a specified web site and design...

Students participate in an activity to simulate direct variation. In this oil spills on land lesson plan, students participate in a simulation using toilet paper and vegetable oil to explore the characteristics of direct variation. They...

Students identify patterns and compute formulas to solve the problems. In this algebra lesson, students come up with a rule given a pattern, and analyze the relationship between data and graphs.

Students investigate the concept of fraction and tangible application. For this algebra lesson, students use fractions to solve real life scenarios. They convert between fractions and decimals and identify the numerator and denominator.

Tenth graders study graphing exponential functions. In this transformations lesson, 10th graders apply inquiry to determine how changes to a parent function affect its graph. Students analyze transformed graphs and generate the function...

Students explore multi-step equations. In this pre-algebra/algebra I lesson, students use the TI-nspire computer algebra system to check the steps they used to solve multi-step equations and equations with variables on both sides.

In this geometry learning exercise, students answer questions about geometric and arithmetic sequences. This lesson is an online interactive lesson.

Students review the foil method used to multiply two binomials. For this lesson on evaluating algebraic expressions, students are able to identify the coefficient in an algebraic expression, "act out" the foil method of multiplying...

Eighth graders investigate slopes using real life scenario. In this algebra lesson, 8th graders model and interpret real life data. They plot their data in a coordinate plane and discuss the results with the class.
