Tenth graders study graphing exponential functions. In this transformations lesson plan, 10th graders apply inquiry to determine how changes to a parent function affect its graph. Students analyze transformed graphs and generate the...

For this calculus worksheet, students are given 21 short-answer problems regarding the "chain rule", derivatives, rate of change and completing tables.

Students explore the concept of linear functions. In this linear functions activity, students translate linear functions from tables to graphs to equations. Students use an applet to write a function rule for a linear function in...

Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...

Guide your chemistry class through the periodic table so that they are able to identify atomic radii, electronegativity, and ionization energy. Give them three metals to place in water to observe reactivity. Teach them to write electron...

In this math worksheet, students are given 4 tables of x-y coordinates and a grid. Students figure the relationship between the x and y coordinate and plot the points. Students then use a given rule to find the y coordinate.

Tongue Twisters?!  Create scatter plot graphs based on timing fellow classmates saying tongue twisters.  Then investigate, display, and analyze the relationships based on functions.  Wrap up this activity by making a...

Sixth graders complete a function table and determine a rule for the use of one. They graph different functons from the tables. The analogy of a machine is used as an example for teaching students about functions.

Fourth and fifth graders make predictions using data. For this analyzing data lesson, pupils use experimental data, frequency tables, and line plots to look for patterns in the data in order to determine chance. You will need to make a...

Your young financial geniuses explore the Rule of 70 as they analyze the exponential function that models the doubling time of investments.

Seventh grade math is so much fun! They solve 10 different problems that include using patterns to complete a table, describe the pattern, and identify the specific term in the pattern for each. Then they give a description of the...

Eighth graders investigate the input/output model for building function tables. From the data, 8th graders connect tables, graphs, function rules, and equations in one variable. They work backwards to determine function rules for given...

Give your class a chance to show how much they've learned in the module with an end-of-module assessment task that covers all topics from the module including linear and non-linear functions and volumes of cones, cylinders, and...

There's just something special about lines in algebra. Introduce your classes to linear equations by analyzing the linear relationship. Young mathematicians use input/output pairs to determine the slope and the slope-intercept formula to...

In this algebra worksheet, pupils use the given values for the functions to create a pattern of solving an equation that is extended into a word problem.

In this differentiating special functions worksheet, students solve and complete 5 various types of problems. First, they differentiate each of the given functions. Then, students complete the table using a calculator and plot the points...

Third graders solve In and Out function problems. They analyze a chart and discuss the steps to solving the functions, and discuss the patterns and complete the charts. Students then create a book of repeating patterns using magazines,...

Seventh graders identify the use of a function.They are asked to describe the input and output of a function. Students also identify different aspects of the coordinate system and represent functions in a visual graph.

Differentiate between calculus concepts. The beginning of a helpful calculus resource begins with a short review of functions and moves right into limits to define derivatives. The six-chapter resource continues with applications of...

How many cups does it take to reach the top? Learners attempt to answer this through a series of questions. They collect dimension information and apply it to creating a function. The lesson encourages various solution methods and...

In this exploring function tables worksheet, 3rd graders take the input number, follow the rule at the top of the table and write the output number for six tables.

In this function tables worksheet, students analyze 6 different function tables to determine the rule that applies to each table. The data in the table involves 2 variables and the rule is either addition, subtraction, multiplication...

In this functions worksheet, students complete a set of 4 function tables using a given rule, then answer a set of 3 additional related questions. Answers are included on page 2.

Seventh graders recognize and solve functions. To reinforce the solving of word problems, 7th graders play a guessing game where they try to identify the functions used. They complete worksheets and draw graphs to match the problem in...
