Solve inverse functions through graphing and algebra. High schoolers will graph inverse functions and use the correct notation to write the equation. They observe a graph and write an equation for the function. In the end, they will be...

Students explore the concept of area under a curve. In this area under a curve lesson plan, students find the area under a curve using the Monte Carlo method using random points and probability. Students calculate the area under the same...

Students investigate the side splitter theorem. In this geometry lesson, students estimate and solve problems dealing with ratios and proportions. They identify angles created by lines that are parallel.

Sixth graders identify, compare and interpret the characteristics of polygons and angles in order to meet spatial sense, geometry and measurement standards. They also sort shapes into three categories, polygons (regular and irregular)...

Students identify the repeated sequences of a pattern. In this geometry lesson, students identify fractals in patterns and nature. They construct a fractal tree and make conjectures.

Young scholars investigate the relationship between fractals and sequences. In this geometry lesson, students build a fractal tree. They investigate different career fields where fractals are used in the real world.

Students investigate the creation of three dimensional drawings. In this geometry activity, students analyze and complete orthographic drawings. They Cabri software to manipulate and move the drawings around.

Students investigate orthographic drawings. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of three dimensional drawings in space. They solve problems using volume and area formulas.

Learners investigate triangles and their relationship to each other. In this geometry lesson, students solve right triangles using the properties of the Pythagorean Theorem. They differentiate between right, acute, straight and oblique...

Learners solve and analyze the sierpinski's triangle. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties and theorem of triangles. They solve problems involving angles and sides of triangles.

Students investigate the Sierpinski triangle. In this geometry lesson plan, students define fractal curves and its relationship to triangles. They identify repeating sequences and relate it to fractals.

Fourth graders play a dice game as a group and record the number rolled. They report their findings and discuss terminology and ways of writing what the odds are of getting certain numbers.

Students apply their math and measuring skills to create "tree trunk" panels for their tropical rain forest. They use their recorded information to construct strips of paper that are correct height.

Sixth graders draw parallel and intersecting lines to observe and examine the characteristics of alternate interior angles, vertical angles, corresponding angles, and supplementary angles. Through observation, they discover the...

Sixth graders estimate the measurement of angles and then measure the exact distance using an angle ruler. In groups, they explore shapes and recognize the characteristics acute, obtuse and right angles. Students sketch required shapes,...

Sixth graders explore symmetry and discuss the difference between a rotation and reflection. Using hands-on activities, such as folding paper shapes, they discover how to find the lines of symmetry and symmetrical characteristics. As a...

Sixth graders observe the creation of a tessellation with hexagons. In groups, they work with polygons to discover what shapes can be used to create tessellations and explore the angle measurements of each shape. Using internet websites,...

Sixth graders discuss the characteristics of specific angles and then use the information to to identify and estimate given angles. The class goes outside, identifies north, and turns a specified amount of degrees. Using a given compass,...

Learners apply probability to real life situation. In this statistics lesson, students play poker and make predictions on what hand they will get next. They apply their knowledge of how probability works to make their predictions.

Students use foam pieces for matching games and other activities.  In this foamie craft lesson, students make a foam pizza puzzle and other forms. Students use the foam shapes to do the puzzle or create the other forms.
