Consider the relationship between side length and area as an input-output function. Scholars create input-output tables for the area of squares to determine an equation in the first installment of a three-part unit. Ditto for the area of...

This is a mid-module assessment for the 16th lesson in 29 geometry lessons. Individuals demonstrate their understanding of concepts such as vertical and adjacent angles, constructing geometric figures, and triangle congruence criteria.

Construct an understanding of triangle congruence through a visual analysis. Young scholars find that given two sides and a non-included angle, sometimes two possible triangles are produced. Their analysis shows that if the non-included...

There are 6 world problems for learners to solve on this worksheet. They read each problem then use the highlighted information to construct an equation involving subtraction. This is a well scaffolded resource.

Use this comprehensive pre-instruction assessment tool to focus your teaching where your class needs it most. Multiple choice questions assess your budding geometers' conceptual and vocabulary knowledge, but they do not solve any...

Construct a fraction kit with your elementary classes. Each learner will get various strips of colored paper. As a class, they fold the different colors into different sizes to recognize that each represents a different fraction. When...

Challenge your class with this place value activity. There are ten sets of four numbers, and they use three number from each set, to construct the smallest number possible. This is a great game to play prior to introducing decimals and...

Build number sense and make learning multiples a simple task with this helpful presentation. The multiples of two, five, and ten are represented first as number patterns. Learners will be able to construct rules based on what they see....

Watch the money grow daily. Scholars tackle a problem to determine how much money they will have if a dollar grows at 10 percent compounded daily after a month. Using that knowledge, learners notice the difference between varying savings...

Dream big or go home. After analyzing a bar graph on the number of bedrooms in US homes derived from census data, scholars design their own dream homes. They cut out two-dimensional shapes from construction paper to create models of...

So much can change in seven years. Young statisticians choose three types of businesses, such as toy stores and amusement parks, and use census data to determine how the number of those businesses in their state changed between 2010 to...

In this mathematical modeling worksheet, students answer two essay questions. They describe Newton's Law of Cooling by describing and constructing a model and answering seven essay questions about the process.

Students are introduced to the concept of convergent infinite series using a recursive geometric construction. They explore the concept of a convergent infinite series using partial sums. Students use formal calculations, visualizations,...

Pairs of learners work together in order to simulate how engineers test materials for strength and safety in the real world. They use paper cups and pieces of spaghetti to run strength tests. This excellent instructional activity should...

The Golden Ratio. The Divine Proportion. Yup. It's math and art blended into one colorful activity. Young artists combine colored tissue paper circles and parts of circles to create geometric patterns. As a bonus, kids get to figure out...

Put on your math caps and explore place value and ways to represent numbers. Learners read, write, and represent whole numbers. They interact with numbers as they read and explore a teacher-created story, play games, and practice their...

Young scholars work with rectangles to find generalizations for adding and subtracting odd and even numbers in part one of the activity. In part two, students use geoboards to construct polygons, look for patterns, and find a general rule.

Creating while learning is great for visual, spacial, and kinesthetic learners. First graders can use the provided quilt squares to construct their very own count by 5 quilt. Each quilt square shows a picture of a hand with a 5s number...

Third graders explore place value to the ten thousands place. This incredibly thorough, 24-page instructional activity has learners construct, order, and compare numbers to 9,999. This three-day instructional activity includes reteaching...

After viewing a short video about a climb up Mount Everest, high schoolers read about triangulation for measuring distant elevations. Have your class work in groups to construct an inclinometer and then use it to measure the height of...

Challenge your class to construct a definition for trapezoids. Looking at four examples and four non-examples, students individually create definitions and use them to classify an unknown shape. Allow for small group and whole-class...

Are you looking for a good 3-D geometry lesson that includes hands-on activities for your middle schoolers? Look no further than this one! Pupils use centimeter grid paper embedded in the plan, along with detailed construction...

What does the data say? Using provided voter data from the 2016 presidential election, scholars describe the data and identify questions they could answer by analyzing it. Learners then construct tables and use them to determine whether...
