The 12th lesson in a series of 20 opens with a demonstration of exponential functions using pasta. This concept is connected to the Richter Scale, which is also an exponential function. Scholars compare the exponential scale that...

In this 2-day lesson focused on exponents, middle schoolers will cross the curriculum by engaging in science, history and language arts activities. Exponential growth will be explored using grains of rice on a chess board. Exponential...

Scholars shake their way to understanding half-life with the help of candy. They observe and record which side candy lands on to graph the exponential decay in the fifth lesson of seven integrating chemistry and algebra. Combining...

In this scientific notation worksheet, students convert 8 numbers from scientific notation to standard notation. They convert 8 numbers from standard notation to scientific notation. They solve 14 problems using the exponent function on...

Your Algebra learners analyze and solve an exponential equation in this popular, real-life model of the cooling of a liquid.  

In this scientific notation, significant figures, and factor-label method, students solve 1 problem where they perform mathematical functions and identify their answer in scientific notation with the proper number of significant figures....

Learners find the relationship between the variables based on experimental data. They determine mathematical relationship between pH and the amount of hydrogen Ions in solution.

Groups explore illumination with NASA's Lighting Environment Test Facility (LETF) as a context. Using the TI-Nspire app, groups determine the lux equation that models their simulation. They then use the lux equation to...

Students predict the number of cells after a series of cell divisions.  In this cells lesson students create a graph of their results and create a patterned drawing. 

Students examine an image produced by a cabinet x-ray system to determine if it is a quality bone mineral density image. Students write in their journals about what they need to know to be able to make this judgment. Students learn about...
