Fill your mind as you fill virtual water bottles. Pupils use an interactive to find the amount of water that can fit in given containers. Writing and evaluating an algebraic expression helps with this task.

Discontinuities in the graph? No worries. Pupils investigate the limit of a function given graphically using an interactive. The graph has removable and jump discontinuities.

Limits are made easy through graphs and tables. An easy-to-use interactive lets users change a function on a coordinate plane. They relate graphs and tables to the limit at a specific value.

High schoolers explore algebraic expressions in this Algebra I lesson. They evaluate expressions using paper and pencil and then use the TI-83 to provide immediate reinforcements.

Placement of parentheses is paramount. Scholars adjust the location of parentheses in a numerical expression so its value matches a given value. A slider interactive helps with this task.

Push an engaging resource to the limit. The interactive allows learners to find a limit on quadratic functions graphically. Using sliders, pupils set the x-value for the limit and to move values from the left and right toward the limit.

A smorgasbord of functions, this packet has the basics required for your learners to be successful in the land of early algebra. The packet includes solving equations, graphing, evaluating, simplifying and basically everything else...

We'd all love to have barrels of candy. An interactive shows the steps in evaluating a numerical expression that reflects the cost of buying several different barrels of candy.

Shopping for a resource on writing algebraic expressions? Look no further. Pupils use an interactive to drag shirts and pants out of a shopping bag. They create and evaluate an expression to represent the cost of the clothes.

Is it safe to take data at its face value? Pupils use the interactive to evaluate a claim that Virgos are more likely to get into a car crash than others. Individuals determine whether another variable may be at play.

Introduce the concept of a correlation coefficient using an interactive lesson. Learners begin by manipulating a correlation coefficient and watching a graph change to represent the new value. Questions help strengthen their...

Log the values of the derivative of a logarithm. The interactive plots the derivative of the natural logarithm. Learners first determine the derivative of natural logarithm and the general logarithm. Using the formulas for the...

Walking in the park can be good for the body and for mathematics skills. Young scholars use an interactive app to investigate the relationship between squares and square roots using a square with adjustable length. The program also...

Time to put those mental math strategies into play with an interactive that has learners thinking about how many candies three friends get altogether.

Rational functions become less mysterious when you know about limits. Individuals use an interactive to move a rational function on a coordinate plane and to investigate function values for certain x-values. They see how the limit...

Chase a periodic moving limit. Learners graphically determine the limit of the tangent function at different input values. Using sliders, pupils find out whether the tangent function approaches the same value from the left and the right....

An interactive challenges mathematicians to add mixed fractions with unlike denominators. Five questions—fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice—build from one to the next leading the way to an open discussion about denominators and...

In this order of operations worksheet, students complete a set of 20 problems, showing their work. Answers are included on page 2. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Sixth graders evaluate algebraic expressions. In this introduction to algebra lesson plan, 6th graders use manipulatives (algebra tiles) to solve problems involving one and two variables. Students apply this knowledge to real life...

Think outside the box and use an engaging, interactive app that shows the relationship between square roots and squares using an actual square. Pupils find that moving a slider increases the side length of a square and its associated area.

Pupils draw the graph of a door opening and closing over time. They graph a given function on their calculators, create a table of values and interpret the results by telling if the door is opening or closing and evaluate the average...
