Students explore the concept of systems of equations. In this system of equations lesson, students enter data into lists on their calculators about 100 meter dash times. Students plot the points using a scatter plot and perform a linear...

Learn to identify the properties of parabolas. Students define parabola as the locus of all points equidistant from a fixed point and a fixed line. Also, interpret the equation for a parabola in vertex form and gain a visual...

Students review plotting points on a coordinate plane. Individually, they add and subtrace complex numbers and graph them in a complex plane. They follow along a worksheet while their teacher lectures on the new material and solve...

Relate factors to zeros and x-intercepts. Scholars first graph quadratics in both standard and factored forms to see that they are the same. They go on to use the graphs to see the relationship between factors and x-intercepts.

Students use a shower curtain to represent a coordinate plane and then physically demonstrate their understanding or ordered pairs as they move from place to place.

Middle schoolers explore the concept of cell phone plans. In this cell phone plan lesson, students research the cost of cell phones. Middle schoolers compare various cell phone plans and decide on which phone plan is best for them.

Students learn about the Cartesian coordinate plane, understand the four quadrants of the Cartesian coordinate plane, and plot points on the plane. Students read coordinates for a point from a graph and give the ratio of rise over run...

Students explore the concept of graphing stations.  In this graphing stations lesson, students head to various teacher set-up stations involving slope, point-slope, standard form, parallel lines, etc.  Students work problems at...

Twelfth graders graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane.

Middle schoolers factor and solve systems of equation. For this algebra lesson, students identify the point of intersection using substitution, elimination and graphing. They write an equation given a system and a graph.

Students solve systems of equations.  For this solving systems of equations lesson, students look for the intersection of the two lines in the system.  Students solve systems that have one solution, no solution, and infinite...

Students draw line graphs. In this math lesson plan, students interpret minimum wage data and graph the data in a line graph. Students predict the next minimum wage and figure the earnings for a 40 hour work week for someone earning the...

Students explore the concept of graph theory. For this graph theory lesson, students participate in hands-on activities that enforce graph theory. Students manipulate graph applets on the internet. Students create a graphical model of...

Math masters are introduced to graphing inequalities on a number line. After reviewing inequality symbols, they practice representing them on a worksheet. This simple lesson serves its purpose.

Sixth graders identify the x and y axes in a coordinate plane and identifies the coordinates of a given point in the first quadrant. They plot specific points in the first quadrant of the Cartesian coordinate system.

Students investigate the cooling and heating of water. In this online science experiment lesson, students work in groups to make predictions regarding freezing and boiling points and then test those predictions as they complete the...

The sky's the limit of what you create when combining functions! The module begins with a review of transformations of parent functions and then moves to combining different function types using addition, subtraction, and...

Graph and solve linear equations in two variables. The class relates the concepts of linear equations to the real world.

Investigate vectors in standard positions and use the CellSheet application on the TI calculator to find the sum of two vectors. Convert from polar to rectangular coordinates and vice versa, and show graphs of the vectors.

Take the first step into graphing sequences. Learners set the starting number, multiplier, add-on, and the number of steps for a sequence. Using the inputs, the interactive calculates and plots the sequence on the coordinate plane. Users...

Older learners consider a list of famous people, and they fill in two columns; one in which they guess the celebrities' ages, and another where they look up their actual age.  They construct a graph by assigning one of the columns...

Explore different representations of numbers. Scholars convert between fractions, decimals, and percents, and then use these conversions to plot the values on a horizontal number line.

What is the relationship between two variables? Groups work together to gather data on arm spans and height. Using the interactive, learners plot the bivariate data, labeling the axes and the graph. The resource allows scholars to create...

Here is part one of a two-part lesson in which scholars investigate the changing states of water—liquid, solid, and gas. With grand conversation and up to three demonstrations, learners make predictions about what they think will happen...
