Learners calculate the slope of parallel and perpendicular lines.In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. They graph their lines using the slope of the equation.

Students find the slopes for perpendicular and parallel lines. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. They use Cabri software to create lines to compare.

Simplifying is radical, dude! After reviewing how to simplify square roots of whole numbers, scholars consider how to simplify square roots of algebraic monomials. Also taken under consideration is how to simplify cube roots of whole...

Young mathematicians define and use Euler's method to solve problems in this calculus lesson. Learners visualize graphs and solve differential equations. They create these visuals on the TI calculator.

Twelfth graders review differential formulas and find their corresponding integration formula. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders review differential and integral formulas as it pertaining to solving calculus problems.  They...

Second graders write sentences in a graphic organizer about communities and what they include.  In this community lesson, 2nd graders will also draw a picture based on their description.  

In this differentiate function instructional activity, students differentiate functions, determine intervals, and derive the equation of a line tangent to a graph of a function. This two-page instructional activity contains eleven...

In this differentiation worksheet, students differentiate functions, sketch graphs of functions, determine the area of inscribed polygons, and use the Mean Value Theorem for functions and intervals. This four-page worksheet contains...

In this limits and differentiation worksheet, students use the limit definition of a derivative to compute functions, and differentiate functions. They determine the geometric significance of values and identify the sketch of a...

For this math worksheet, students solve problems that focus upon the use of the Taylor Series and Taylor Polynomials. Then they substitute and differentiate each equation.

In this implicit differentiation worksheet, students use the chain rule to solve for the derivative. The find the equation for the tangent line at a given point and determine if the line is vertical. This two-page worksheet contains...

In this function worksheet, students compute the limits of given functions, they use differentials to estimate quantities, they compute the change in functional value and determine an equation for a line tangent to a graph. This...

Eighth graders participate in two data collection activities that involve direct and inverse variation. In the pre-assessment, 8th graders categorize numerical, graphical, and verbal representations as linear or nonlinear and determine...

Mathematicians explore cubic functions by learning how to investigate the relationship between the x-coordinates of the three zeros of a cubic function.  The lesson also contains an application of differentiation. 

Using the provided tracing number worksheet, a pair of kindergartners will practice their adding skills. Player A will roll two die, add the sum, and then trace the sum on the worksheet. Player B will take a turn and do the same. The...

Investigate vectors and learn how to use them. Explore why size and direction, as well as knowing speed and distance, are important components of the vector problems you are trying to solve. This is an extensive instructional activity...

There are 12 symbols on this large grid, and scholars must record a location for each. They use the coordinate pair system which is made easier because every symbol is directly inside a square. Use this to introduce coordinate pair...

If two is company and three's a crowd, then what's e? Scholars observe how changes in the base affect the graph of a logarithmic function. They then graph the natural logarithm function and learn that all logarithmic functions can be...

During read-aloud of Kindergarten Count to 100 by Jacqueline Rogers, children listen for context clues about vocabulary that includes the words "first," "second," and "third." I love the way vocabulary development skills are integrated...

What polygon is this? Young geometers categorize shapes by circling all the quadrilaterals in a set of figures. Next, they write the names of 10 polygons using a visual guide as reference. Review the guide together before they start if...

Working in a math center or an "I finished early" work station, young mathematicians will match in sequence pre-set-up rods of unifix cubes to numbers on a number line. To help differentiate tens from ones, use different colors to...

Students practice their multiplication facts by reinforcement and repetition. Students write facts in their math journals, and use labeled soccer ball and deck of cards to practice multiplying by "number of the day." Play continues until...
