This worksheet is part of the TI-Nspire lesson on the quadratic formula. Pupils determine the solutions of a quadratic function by looking at a graph and the discriminant. They use the quadratic formula to solve quadratic functions on...

Mathematicians determine the solutions of a quadratic function by looking at a graph. They use the quadratic formula to solve quadratic functions on their Ti-Nspire.

Pupils review the Cartesian plane and the process of plotting points. In groups, students create tables, identify the slope and y-intercept, and graph the equation. Afterward, pupils perform the same process, only, individually. As a...

Seventh graders explore bar graphs and pie charts. Given a pack of M&Ms, 7th graders explore the colors, sort the data in a frequency chart and then construct bar graphs and pie charts to categorize the M&Ms by color. Students...

Students plot points on a coordinate plane. They describe, in words, methods for finding the slope of a line. After given a worksheet, students read instructions, draw a Cartesian plane, plot ordered pairs, and graph lines. Papers are...

Students graph inequalities on a number line and discuss how to solve for one variable. The teacher models examples as students take notes. In groups, students participate in an activity to demonstrate inequalities on a number line. ...

Students graph current temperature and weather conditions for three days.  In this weather instructional activity, students go to the Weather Channel's website and look up weather for their zip code then graph the conditions and...

First graders identify a number that is one more or one less than a number up to one hundred and identify a mystery number. They also create a class graph that illustrates how many children are in each family, and answer questions about...

High Schoolers engage in a study of circles and graphs that are related with the focus upon finding the center and radius. The lesson plan includes the suggestion of giving homework using circle problems before this one to create...

First graders create graphs. In this graphing lesson, 1st graders create a floor graph using their bodies to record information. They create picture graphs after collecting information. 

Graph it! Investigate transformations with a graphing calculator. Pupils graph sets of linear functions on the same set of axes. They determine how changes in the equation of a linear function result in changes in the graph.

Find the best path through town. The lesson teaches future computer programmers about networks and paths in graph theory. They develop a network of their towns to determine the most efficient path to visit each of their homes.

Fifth graders can survey the students just in their classroom, the grade level, or other grade levels. Upon finishing the surveys and compiling the data, the students can input their results in an Excel template or create their own...

Students investigate graphing.  For this bar graph lesson, students view an informational website about graphing, then construct a class birthday bar graph outside with sidewalk chalk. Students choose a survey topic, then collect...

In this algebra worksheet, students describe the relationship between a line graph and its data. They define the reasons line graphs are used and discuss increasing and decreasing lines. There is one involved questions, requiring several...

Learners explore quadratic equations in this Algebra II instructional activity. They investigate families of quadratic functions by graphing the parent function and family members on the same graph. Additionally, they write the equation...

Students graph their solutions using a linear equation. In this algebra lesson plan, students rewrite words problems into algebraic equations and graph their solutions. They solve word problems dealing with real lie scenario.

Students explore biome data. In this world geography and weather data analysis instructional activity, students record data about weather conditions in North Carolina, Las Vegas, and Brazil. Students convert Fahrenheit degrees to Celsius...

Students graph sea ice data and predict long term trends in the data. In this climate change lesson, students use sea ice data from the Arctic and Antarctic to construct line graphs. They use their graphs to predict the effects of global...

Young scholars identify graphs for direct variation. In this algebra worksheet, students analyze graphs to determine their direct variation. They also determine whether the graphs are functions or not.

Students analyze graphs of two equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students rewrite word problems as linear equations. They graph their solution and compare and contrast the two items being represented.

In this bar graph worksheet, students use the blank graph to survey classmates and record their favorite day of the week. Students think of one question about the graph and write it on the line.

Ninth graders graph inequalities. In this algebra lesson plan, 9th graders graph equations on a number line using inequalities and plain numbers. They solve inequalities with negative numbers also.

Students solve problems with direct variation. In this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs to figure out the direct variation of a line. They observe the slopes based the steepness of the lines.
