For this addition worksheet, students answer 3 fill in the blank word problems where they draw a picture and then use the drawing to help them create an addition equation for each problem.

Twelfth graders investigate the capabilities of the TI-89.  In this calculus lesson, 12th graders explore the parametric equation for a circle, for arc length of curves, and for trajectories.  Students investigate the symbolic...

Pupils identify the equation to represent a circle. In this algebra lesson plan, students review properties of conics and how they are related. they use a robot to create a visual of circles and their application to the real world.

Students review solving equations. They solve an inequality and discuss how to graph it. Students work together on one inequality and then graph two on their own. This lesson contains links to a PowerPoint and a worksheet.

Understanding the concept of equality is fundamental to the success of young mathematicians. To explore this basic idea, children compare the dots arranged in pairs of rectangles in order to determine whether or not they contain an equal...

Learning tools are invaluable. Teach your Autistic or special needs pupils how to multiply by 7s and 8s. They will use the circles to match the correct answer to the correct single-digit equation. Great for reinforcing multiplication...

Problem solve across the content standards. The presentation slides provide 19 sample items from the Smarter Balanced high school assessment. Items illustrate Claim 2, problem solving, of the test and are drawn from all the high school...

Students compute the length of an arc and each hypotenuse in the give figure, adding them up in the end. They then develop the formula for the arc length with respect to the x-axis and the y-axis. Students also develop a formula for the...

In this circles and ellipses learning exercise, students solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the distance between the given pair of points. Then, students find the center and radius of each circle and...

Students investigate the mathematical concept of linear equations. They use codes to lead the discussion. The teacher makes clarification as necessary during the class discussion. The lesson includes dialogue to be used by the teacher.

For this circle graph worksheet, students complete problems involving many circle graphs including a compass rose, degrees, and more. Students complete 7 activities.

In this chemical equations worksheet, students fill in the blank with information about how to form chemical equations using the "ide" rule and the "ate" rule.

In this problem-solving worksheet, 5th graders problem-solve 2 mathematical equations involving 4 key steps and 2 circle graphs.

Students use matrices and linear equations to decrypt a secret message. They receive a part of the encoded message to decode by means of inverse matrices. Pupils write critiques about the activity.

From Pythagorean triples to the unit circle. Learners use the Pythagorean Theorem to find Pythagorean triples and then relate their work to the unit circle in a fun algebra project. Their discovery that x^2+y^2 is always equal to one on...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Serve four towns with one bus route. Pupils develop a bus route that meets certain criteria to serve four towns. They determine which of the routes would best serve all of them. Individuals then hypothesize where a fifth town should be...

Scholars examine the application of torque in relation to motion by viewing a comprehensive presentation that explains the basic concepts related to torque and rotational motion. The lesson ends with examples showing how to calculate...

To solve or not to solve that is the problem. A slide presentation of 17 items show different ways that Smarter Balanced assesses Claim 2, problem solving. The items span from sixth and seventh grade concepts to highlight the...

What kind of functions have holes in their graphs? Here, the teacher guides the class on how to use the simplified function of a rational function to aid in the graphing of the original rational function. T-tables are used in order...

A middle school test contains two 40-minute sections covering material through algebra. All questions involve applied problem solving or mathematical analysis.
