It's more than just numbers on a line, its an organizational, mental math machine to help learners understand the value of numbers. The tool is handy when introducing positive and negative integers to see their values and...

Explore angle relationships associated with transversals. Pupils construct parallel lines with a transversal and find the measures of the angles formed. They figure out how the different angles are related before constructing...

Students 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.

Computers are useful for more than just surfing the Internet. Pupils first investigate scatter plots and estimate correlation coefficients. Next, they use Microsoft Excel to create scatter plots and determine correlation...

Elementary learners explore coin mint dates. First, they listen to the book Alexander Who Used to be Rich Last Sunday by Judith Viorst. They then sort a collection of coins according to their mint date and put them in order from oldest...

Access the instructional counting level of your class by prompting them to recall consecutive numbers within a given number range. Working one-on-one with your students and starting with the number range of 1-10, and working toward the...

In this plotting worksheet, students plot given ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. After plotting each ordered pair, students connect line segments in consecutive order. Upon completion of the graphing exercise, students will have...

In this graphing worksheet, students graph given ordered pairs on a coordinate plane and connect the dots in consecutive order. Upon completion of the graphing exercise, students will have created a picture on the coordinate plane. They...

In this math worksheet, young scholars observe that the triangular numbers are associated with the sums of consecutive natural numbers beginning with 1.

"How's the Weather?" is an exercise that combines science and math as students graph the weather along the Iditarod Trail. They complete a double-line graph of the weather of a chosen checkpoint over the course of one week. Students...

Emergencies happen. Be prepared the next time you have to call in a substitute with a lesson plan designed to meet the needs of a kindergarten class. Throughout the day, class members work with number and alphabet cards, identify numbers...

What's in a name? Pupils create a data set from the number of letters in the names of classmates. Each group then takes the data and creates a visual representation, such as a histogram, circle graph, stem-and-leaf plot, etc.

Tenth graders identify angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal. Using meter sticks and bolts, they perform hands-on activities to demonstrate the properties of parallel lines and congruent angles. They color code diagrams to...

Students define patterns, relation and function. In this algebra lesson, students find the slope of a line and write equations of line. They model the slope using real life scenarios.

Students investigate local surface weather conditions. They log weather conditions for thirty days, develop a graph, plot cloud cover, and compare/contrast the graphed lines of various weather factors.

Students explore the concept of investing in stocks. In this investing in stocks lesson, students discuss how on-line stock traders have helped people save money. Students discuss ways in which companies can make a product or service...

Ninth graders construct a weather map. In this meteorology lesson plan, 9th graders construct a weather map using contour lines and temperature.

Not all variables are created equal. Discover how variables in computer science are different from variables in math class. Scholars learn to work with variables in computer programming by developing a mental model for how variables...

To foul or not to foul, that is the basketball question. High schoolers look at the probability that fouling out a player and allowing free throws yields a better outcome than allowing the original shot. The resource provides a...

There are a multitude of games for reviewing almost any subject matter or lesson plan. The rules can be adapted to fit your own needs and levels. Most of these games have been borrowed from others and adapted. Football Review, Baseball...

"Alleys" is a drill or game-like situation to practice what has already been taught in previous lessons. The tennis court is divided in half, left side and right side, so that each pair of players has an alley. The goal is to aim for the...

In this distance worksheet, students determine the distance between two objects, find the average velocity of an object, and define instantaneous velocity. This two-page worksheet contains six two-step problems.

Elementary learners design and construct a diagram of a keyboard on the floor of the classroom. They outline the keyboard in masking tape by estimating size, proportion, and key position. Then they can interact with the giant keyboard as...

Teach your mathematicians how to identify the properties of quadrilaterals. In this geometry lesson, high schoolers solve for missing angles and sides of a special quadrilateral. They use the TI to move the sides around and create...
