In this calculus worksheet, students solve problems with trigonometric functions. They take the derivative and find the average rate of change.

Young scholars solve word problems by using basic geometry. For this geometry lesson, students use geometric formulas to find the perimeter, area, and volume of objects. Young scholars complete a worksheet.

Students determine an efficient layout of the pattern pieces needed to make a sports bag with given dimensions and specifications. Given a word problem, data set and a diagram, students evaluate the information they have available and...

First graders identify basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) and describes the attributes of each. They use magazines to find examples of each shape, and then make a collage.

In this college level Calculus activity, students find the derivative of the given function and find the rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its circumference.  The two page activity contains seven problems. ...

Students, working independently and in groups, apply the distance formula to practical situations. After solving various problems, students in pairs design coordinate planes from the school blue print to measure the distance from the...

Identify and make conjecture about properties of cyclic quadrilaterals. Learners use the TI Navigator to create different shapes and draw conclusions.

Learn how to measure the reference angles in degrees and radians.  Students find reference angles that are coterminal with a given angle.

In this math review worksheet, students review for their 7th grade exam using a variety of worksheets on different topics. There are 35 problems plus some word problems in the worksheet booklet.  

Learners identify the different angles and sides of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students identify the six trigonometric ratios. They graph the graph of each trig function and analyze it.

Learners investigate cyclic quadrilaterals in this geometry lesson. They use Cabri Jr to explore the sum of the measures of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral. The dynamic nature of Cabri allows students to form and verify...

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

High schoolers participate in a mock oil search game and attempt to find "oil" in a model oil field. They drill initially based on random guessing, but each time they drill they use prior knowledge to determine where to drill next. ...

Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Students study some important people and events in French culture. They complete a worksheet and circle every item that is associated with France. They respond to written cues identifying the country's language and culture.

First graders examine how to sort concrete objects by their attributes. In this sorting lesson plan, 1st graders listen to Gray Rabbit's Odd One Out by Alan Baker, and discuss the actions of the main character. They practice sorting...
