Students distinguish between proper and improper fractions. They create a "Character Clue Box" that represents a fraction. Fractions are picked from a hat and then groups go outside and search for items that represent their fraction....

Young scholars explore inequalities. In this Algebra I lesson, students solve and graph linear inequalities involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.  Young scholars use inequalities to solve and graph real-world...

Students explore tangram puzzles. In this tangram fraction lesson, students read Grandfather Tang and then practice solving tangram puzzles. Students identify fractions of the pieces of the tangram puzzles and then create a design using...

Seventh graders use the World Wide Web for research, identify fractions found in everyday life by finding a recipe that uses fractions.

Students pretend they are about to buy their first new car. They must do all the calculations necessary to estimate the cost of purchasing the car. They see that the math they learn in school really does have real-life applications.

Third graders create a box big enough to hold a million dollars. This is a project fun to do near the winter holidays with inexpensive gifts included in the boxes. This hands-on activity very effectively demonstrates the concept of volume.

Given a problem situation, the student will compare and order integers, percents, positive and negative fractions and decimals with or without a calculator.

Use Glencoe's Math Course 2 randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your knowledge of comparing and ordering rational numbers. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of...
