In this stoichiometry worksheet, students use balanced equations for chemical reactions to determine the percent yield and the mass of product produced. This worksheet has five problems to solve.

Use ratios to solve problems that are not proportions. The instructional activity has pupils solve multi-step ratio problems that involve fractional increases and decreases. The problems involve mark-ups, discounts, commissions, and...

Far out — plan a trip to space! Aspiring mathematicians steer a space vehicle through an asteroid field, calculate currency exchanges to buy provisions, and determine placement of charges to blow up asteroids. Along the way, they learn...

Students engage in a lesson that has them practice solving equations using multiplication and division. They practice solving problems using the properties needed and then students practice changing word problems into an equation.

Students calculate the size of the population at a given time, for a population that grows at a rate that is directly proportional to the number of members present in the population. They also calculate the time at which the population...

In this linear function activity, students explain how the linear function relates to direct proportionality. They answer questions dealing with slope fields, rate equations and illustrate Euler's Method. After answering six discussion...

Scholars determine how two quantities vary with respect to each other. They complete a fill-in-the-blank activity by stating whether the entities vary directly, inversely, or jointly, create equations that match different variations, and...

In this state testing worksheet, students solve problems on a variety of topics studied throughout the year.  They find the median, solve algebraic equations, solve proportions, simplify expressions, find percents, and complete...

Discover an inverse variation pattern. A simple lesson plan design allows learners to explore a nonlinear pattern. Scholars analyze a distance, speed, and time relationship through tables and graphs. Eventually, they write an equation to...

How high is too high for a belly flop? Learners analyze data to model the world record belly flop using a quadratic equation. They create a graph and analyze the key features and apply them to the context of the video.

Show your classes the importance of mathematics in something as simple as bicycle design. The final lesson in the six-part STEM series has each group research a different aspect of the bicycle. Learners use mathematical formulas, linear...

All's fair in math and war. Scholars examine the Battle of Trafalgar using calculus. They set up and solve a system of differential equations to determine the number of ships remaining in each fleet over time.

Students explore the concept of chemical formulas.  In this chemical formula lesson, students watch a video about balancing chemical equations.  Students conduct an experiment using silver nitrate and sodium phosphate. ...

Ninth graders investigate the concepts of ratio and proportion.They solve examples with the teacher for ratios and proportions. A basic fraction review is used for a warm up in this lesson. The primary focus of the lesson appears to be...

Fifth graders discuss the relationship between equivalent fractions, ratios, and proportions. In this fraction lesson, 5th graders answer questions about a punch mixture in order to find the ratio of ingredients.

Students determine the height of objects using shadows. In this math lesson, students discus methods of finding the height of items without directly measuring. Students measure shadows and figure the actual height of the object.

Math apprentices are introduced to the components of a linear relationship. In groups, they write story problems that incorporate this relationship and relates to the real world. They give their problem to the class for them to solve.

Students determine the size of the population at a given time. They calculate the time at which the population will be a given number. They observe how the population grows at the rate that is directly proportional to the number of...

Young scholars participate in a instructional activity that investigates Newton's Second Law of Motion. They conduct an experiment of observing balls that are rolled down a ramp. The instructional activity includes background information...

Twelve chapters cover a multitude of math concepts found in the Common Core standards for sixth grade. Each title provides a brief explanation of what you will find inside the chapter—concepts from which you can click on and learn more...

Juice up your lessons with an open-ended resource. Scholars must determine how many oranges it takes to fill a container with juice. They use information presented in a video and as images to find the solution. 

Programming a robot is a mathematical task! The activity asks learners to examine the process of programming a robot to vacuum a room. They use a coordinate plane to model the room, write equations to represent movement, determine the...

This worksheet manages to provide both fun and serious work solving exponential and logarithmic application problems in engaging story lines and real-life situations. A strong emphasis on science applications and numbers pulled...
