Students attempt a problem that Students has the potential to have more than one solution. Hence the problem is accessible to a wide range of students. The problem is essentially about finding patterns and this is typical of a number of...

Students develop the concept of supply and demand. In this economics lesson plan, students listen to a lecture and take notes on supply and demand. Students create a coherent set of notes about supply and demand.

Young scholars explore the concept of running a business. In this running a business instructional activity, students put their plan of action into practice. Young scholars market a product and try to maximize profit.

Learners complete time and distance problems. Using appropriate problem solving strategies, students determine when a helicopter will catch a cruise ship. Learners write a summary of their solution process. They complete a graph to...

Students, after reading an explanation from a NASA Web-based textbook, demonstrate an understanding of the text by applying it to the calculation of area, velocity, and pressure in a wind tunnel.

Sixth graders apply problem solving strategies to work with a real life situation in which they need to determine the area. They determine the area of chicken runs that are rectangular in shape when give a partial perimeter.

Sixth graders apply knowledge of how to calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They determine why it is inappropriate to measure the area of land by its perimeter which is done in certain areas of New Guinea. They complete a...

Middle schoolers distinguish between possible and impossible graphs of functions, and to learn why some graphs are impossible. They have practiced plotting functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane

Learners work with dominoes to recognize the number of spots on each side as they relate to addition facts. In this seeing doubles instructional activity, students make triangle shaped flash cards for the double facts. Learners represent...

This unit is about making calculations in the real life situations of taxis, hire cars, and cell phones. They find and justify a word formula which represents a given practical situation. Solve simple linear equations such as 2? + 4 = 16.

Learners research aspects of gardening including nutrition, costs, and soil preparation. They then write a report detailing the planning of the garden and compare costs to buying the items.

Learners 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...

Learners research propulsion, graph data, and interpret the results.

In this substitution and elimination worksheet, students complete short answer problems for substitution and elimination and read notes about them as well. Students complete 13 problems.

Imaginary numbers are a real thing. Scholars learn about complex numbers, real numbers, and imaginary numbers. They classify given numbers as strictly complex, strictly real, or strictly imaginary in an individual or group activity.

This study guide is a great resource to help you present the steps to graphing linear inequalities. Show your class two different ways to graph an inequality and work on a real-world example together. The document could also be easily...

Students practice plotting functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane while participating in a discussion about the Possible Or Not worksheet/activity. Students also use the Impossible Graphs worksheet to practice reading a graph,...

Learners construct spreadsheets from raw data. In this spreadsheet construction lesson, students compile data into Microsoft Excel. Learners familiarize themselves with entering and presenting data in a spreadsheet.

Young scholars perform mathematical operations on complex numbers. After a lecture/demo, students utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan to gain practice performing operations on complex numbers.

Learners use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

In this math worksheet, students find the answers to the functions that includes integration and trigonometry. They use the examples for help with the special functions.

Second graders use a number line to practice subtraction.  In this subtraction instructional activity, 2nd graders use a number line to count backwards.  Students participate in mad math activities and solve problems.

Third graders use number sense and appropriate problem solving techniques to solve the assigned problems. They write out the solutions to the assigned problems. They work in groups to solve the problem before reporting back to the whole...

Learners examine how to solve systems of equations. Topics investigated are linear systems with two variables, linear systems with three variables, augmented matrices, and nonlinear systems. Class notes, definitions, and examples with...
