Students investigate motion using a CBL. In this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They define and identify amplitude and period of conic graphs.

Young scholars review the concept of median, explore how to calculate quartiles for any size data set and experience how to build a box plot.

High schoolers observe and solve examples of corresponding angle postulates, alternate interior angle theorems, and exterior and consecutive angles. They complete the Determining Angle Measure With Parallel Lines worksheet.

Students examine and discuss typical linear equations, and the difference between a linear and nonlinear equation. They observe examples of linear equations and complete a worksheet.

In this multiplication activity, learners study two samples of single multiplication tables. Students solve two single-digit multiplication tables multiplying by 6 and 8.

Sixth graders determine appropriate scales when graphing data. In this graphing lesson, 6th graders use an the applet "Graph It" to determine what is an appropriate scale for their data.

Students explore how the Pythagorean Theorem works and how to apply it.

Pupils are introduced to the Pythagorean theorem. They use three different activities that give students the opportuntiy to observe triangles, and use the Pythagorean theorem and practice different ways of determining areas of triangles.

Students explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

Fourth graders examine the amount of sugar contained in Halloween candy by looking at nutritional labels from candy bars. They figure out ways to encourage people to reduce the amount of sugar they eat at this holiday. They look at the...

Fifth graders experience a lesson to investigate the methods for finding the area of a circle. They use the drawing of segments in order to visualize how a circle can be proposed of many parts. Then students brainstorm in order to derive...

Students use numbers as descriptors. In this mathematical inquiry lesson, students use numbers to describe, classify, and compare plants. Students are made aware that numbers can be used to describe things in the world around them.

Fourth graders explore geometry by utilizing pattern blocks. In this pattern lesson, 4th graders analyze two separate pattern block shapes and discuss which one is bigger and smaller. Students collaborate in small groups to create...

Learners analyze graphs for specific properties. In this algebra lesson, students solve equations and graph using the TI calculator. They find the different changes that occur in each graph,including maximum and minimum.

Students participate in a theme study while teaching primary students basic skills according to Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals in Reading, Math, and Writing. The lesson is concerned primarily with the concept of insects.

Students predict what geometric shapes they think would be on the battleship; then view a picture and identify the various shapes they see. They take a tour of the battleship Wisconsin they identify various geometric shapes represented...

Students explore coins, especially the nickel, through a toy cash register, worksheet, and paper nickels.

Pupils build a working definition of regular fractal, look carefully at the concepts of dimension and scale, and are introduced to logarithms. They solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by trial and error and using logs.

Middle schoolers build a working definition of a regular fractal, they measure the concepts of dimensions and scale, they explore the concept of a logarithm and they attempt to solve simple exponential equations for the exponent both by...

Students explore the Mandelbrot Set. They are introduced to the concept of a complex number and function in order to motivate the discussion of Julia and Mandelbrot sets. Students investigate fractals and how they are built.

Students practice planning budgets as they create a budget for ten employees of a company to attend a professional convention. They use the Internet, and spreadsheet software to complete their assignment.

Students study and research irregular fractals and construct a few based on their research. Students practice pattern recognition skills and plane geometry skills calculating dimensions on the Fractured Pictures activity.

Students explore expected value, are introduced to the concept of varying payoffs, and have used a computer simulation of a "real world" example where expected value is used

Students discuss pyrotechnics and what they have noticed about their height and speed. They think about the path which fireworks follow which is a parabola. They follow multiplication patterns to determine the Zero Product Property and...
