Learners compare different types of numbers. Each student is given a flashcard containing a decimal, percent, fraction or integer. Teams of students compete, in silence, to determine who can line up in numerical order correctly. They...

Students explore the physical aspect of a slope. In this algebra lesson, students graph a slope and write an equation for a slope. They identify slopes of zero, negative lines and positive lines.

Students identify the properties of quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students find the vertex and intercepts of a parabola. They factor quadratics and identify the zeros of the equations.

Students define a functions and solve problems using functions. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate functions from non-functions. They differentiate between polynomials of higher degrees.

Third graders develop their algebraic thinking by recognizing a variety of patterns using concrete objects, numbers, tables, and pictures. In this George and Sam Save for a present lesson, 3rd graders communicate their mathematical...

Students practice the concept of limits graphically, numerically and algebraically. They participate in an exploration lab, BINGO game and complete a puzzle.

Students use physical models and graphs in order to solve problems that have their origin in the real world that require algebraic thinking. The words are changed into equations and inequalities in order to be solved. This requires...

Students factor trinomials. In this algebra lesson, students use special patterns and formulas to factor. They utilize algebra tiles as a hands-on method for gaining practice with trinomials.

Middle schoolers solve problems dealing with percents. In this algebra lesson, students convert between decimals and percents using factoring. They solve one step problems involving percents.

Learners identify properties of a line. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between functions and nonfunctions. They use the slope and y intercept to graph their lines.

Students multiply inequalities by negative. In this algebra lesson, students solve inequalities and graph their solutions on a number line. They pay close attention to the negative consequence, which causes the sign to flip.

Students find the solutions of polynomials through graphing. In this algebra lesson, students identify the maximum and minimum of each polynomial function. They ind the vertex, domain and range of a parabola.

Learners apply real data to create and calculate algebraic equations. Students create a visual to represent the concentration for one part per million and apply unit analysis to verify measurement computations. Learners define the use...

Learners create different methods to analyze their data. In this algebra instructional activity, students differentiate between proportion and non-proportional graph. They use the TI-Navigator to create the graphs and move them around to...

Students investigate the proper way to write numbers using decimals and commas. In this algebra instructional activity, students recognize the place value of a specific digit. They place numbers correctly on a number line.

Third graders use graphing calculators to graph equations. They make visual models of algebraic expressions and they can readily see that an equation represents something.

In this identifying pivots learning exercise, students use algebra to find equivalent systems of equations. This four-page learning exercise contains examples, explanations and approximately ten problems.

Seventh graders practice using pattern blocks. In this pre-algebra lesson, 7th graders complete tasks that require them to compare fractions, make fractions equivalent, and add fractions.

Students solve problems dealing with ratios and proportions. In this algebra lesson, students rewrite word problems using equations and symbols. They correctly convert between percents and decimals.

Students factor and solve quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students identify the domain and range of the quadratic function. They graph the parabola and identify the vertex.

Explore graphical representation of a real-life data set and determine the exponential regression model for the data in your classroom. Students also compare the estimated value to the given value by determining the percent error.

Students explore the distributive property. In this algebra lesson plan, students are given Fruit Loops or other manipulatives and the class is divided in half. Each half of the class completes part of the equation to show that both...

In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus worksheet, students represent decimal numbers in binary form and compute with binary numbers.  The four page worksheet contains eleven questions.   Answers are included.

Students write linear equations. For this algebra lesson, students are given information and asked to write an equation. They solve real world problems apply concepts of linear equations.
