So that is how they do it! Pupils and teachers see how College Board assesses topics using the free-response questions from Form B of the 2007 AP® Statistics test. The six questions are divided in two sections, the first five being...

Students identify and describe polynomials and their elements, discuss simple parts that make up equations, inequalities, and exponents, take notes on definitions of terms and their types, including monomials, binomials, and trinomials,...

Discover how algebra tiles can help in dividing polynomials. Pupils watch as instructors demonstrate how to use algebra tiles to solve problems involving the division of a quadratic expression by a linear expression. Once they get the...

This short probability question may look simple at first, but it is actually quite complex! Learners must understand independent events in context and must take into account several different scenarios. Use as an individual assignment...

Fourth graders solve a dominoes word problem, calculating all the possible outcomes for a sequence of events. They discuss the problem, apply counting strategies, create a tree diagram, and write an explanation of how they solved the...

The worksheet is great but the answer key is fantastic! This practice test focuses on quadratics and polynomials. Learners are expected to be able to simplify and factor expressions and solve equations. The best part is the answer key...

Avoid the trap of memorizing steps when completing the square with a resources that provides a conceptual approach to completing the square. Learners that are able to recognize a perfect square trinomial are ready to complete the...

Using Wolframalpha graphing capabilites, algebra learners graph polynomials with degrees of three and larger. They identify the roots and graph each polynomial, predict zeros and shapes of graphs, and validate their understanding through...

Uncover the relationship between factoring quadratics and higher degree polynomials. Learners develop their factoring skills through repetition. A comprehensive instructional activity begins with quadratics and shows how to use the same...

Tiles are not just for algebra—see how they can help with multiplication too. Young mathematicians learn to use algebra tiles to model the multiplication of polynomials. A follow-up worksheet provides practice with the skill.

Scholars learn how using algebra tiles to add and subtract polynomials can model how to combine polynomials. They use their newfound knowledge to complete a worksheet of problems.

Students explore the concept of factoring polynomials.  In this factoring polynomials worksheet, students factor using a GCF, by grouping, a difference of two squares, two cubes, etc. 

Students factor trinomials using algebra tiles and blocks. In this algebra lesson, students complete a trinomials station activity. They work backwords to find their answers and discuss their steps in a group.

Young scholars subtract monomials and polynomials by combining like terms. In this advanced subtraction lesson, students define the rules and properties for subtraction of polynomials. They apply the rules for addition to help with the...

Students become familiar with patterns, the Fibonacci Sequence, and the Golden Ratio. They see how many places these occur. They have practical applications for using the calculator and making charts to extend patterns.

Pupils review and better examine hypothesis testing and evaluation of probability distributions. the use of the discovery method is vital to the studying because it is about student interests which helps for motivation.

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders classify polynomials by degree, write in standard form, and describe the behavior of the graph. The two page worksheet provides explanation and examples along with thirteen practice...

Learners factor trinomials using patterns and their TI to graph their results and make predictions through this lesson. This is accomplished by solving quadratic equations through FOIL and algebra tiles.

Contains a brief lesson plan on binomial coefficients.

Students explore binomial coefficients through this downloadable java applet. A table and graph is provided.

Using this tutorial, you'll learn how to evaluate a factorial, find a binomial coefficient, and use the binomial theorem through several example problems and practice exercises.
