Discover the result of a sequence of rotations about different centers. Pupils perform rotations to examine the patterns. They also describe the sequence of rotations that performed to reach a desired result in the ninth installment in a...

Get a line on the snakes. The assessment task requires the class to determine the species of unknown snakes based upon collected data. Individuals analyze two scatter plots and determine the most likely species for five...

Continue a study of calculus by using a slideshow to introduce the concept of continuity. After defining the term, the presentation provides examples of functions that are discontinuous and introduces different types...

Let's get the herd to follow the rules. The activity associated with the second lesson in the unit introduces the class to the definition of a function. Individuals must gather in groups of zebras and rhinos defined by the general...

Calculate the areas of scale drawings until a more efficient method emerges. Pupils find the relationship between the scale factor of a scale drawing and the scale of the areas. They determine the scale of the areas is the square of the...

What a fun way for youngsters to practice numbers! Using Playdough (or another type of moldable dough, which can be made at home easily), learners create lengths to place over large number cards, tracing the numbers 1-10. Then, they...

What information can be gleaned from a box and whiskers plot? Discuss the five summary values - minimum, maximum, upper and lower quartiles, and median - and what conclusions can be made from these values? Included here is a matching...

Learners explore the concept of similarity. They examine such topics as ratio of corresponding sides, internal ratios and scaling factors. After watching a video, student groups perform experiments outside the school building.

This amazingly extensive unit covers a wealth of geometric ground, ranging from constructions to angle properties, triangle theorems, rigid transformations, and fundamentals of formal proofs.  Each of the almost-forty lessons...

In this congruent triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve 5 various types of geometry problems related to triangles. First, they draw and label triangles, indicating the additional pairs of corresponding parts that would have to be...

Students define and discuss congruency and the corresponding parts between congruent triangles. They create a pair of congruent triangles, test for congruency, and complete a worksheet.

Students create a spreadsheet that they will use to plan a small party or outing. They calculate expenses and stay within a budget amount for their party.

Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...

Build confidence in proofs by proving a known property. Pupils explore two approaches to proving base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent: transformations and SAS. They then apply their understanding of the proof to more complex...

Take a step beyond Algebra 2. Learners use the eBook to learn concepts from the typical Precalculus course. Content starts off with a short review of functions in general and moves on to the basic functions, finishing up with more...

Individuals discover how to draw cubes on triangle-dot paper. They use cubes to build structures and draw corresponding isometric drawings on dot paper in the second lesson of the series of five. The activity also introduces the concept...

Young mathematicians work through the concept of converting a shaded ten-frame into a mixed number and a decimal. Learners must first identify the number of wholes. Then, they find the fraction part. After writing the...

Base ten blocks serve as visual representations of numbers that include decimals to the hundredths place. Children compare and order decimals in their math journal as they build the corresponding numbers with base ten blocks.

Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...

Determining the number of solutions is an important stepping stone to higher math. In this case, the resource asks algebra pupils to find a second linear equation for a certain solution of a system. When one is asked for a linear...

Students find the volume of rectangular prisms.  In this volume lesson, students use a formula to find the volume of rectangular prisms.  They discuss the definition of volume and draw rectangular prisms.  Students...

First graders investigate the three main parts of a plant. In this plant parts lesson, 1st graders explore vocabulary for the topic and read a story about plant parts. Students view a PowerPoint and take a quiz for the topic....

For this geometry worksheet, students view two congruent figures and match the corresponding parts. Students write the four corresponding parts in the boxes provided.

In this proofs worksheet, 10th graders solve and graph 8 different equations. First, they prove that each triangle is either congruent or similar. Then, students use the concept of corresponding parts of congruent triangles to solve each...
