In this calculus worksheet, students review topics they need to already understand in order to be successful in a basic calculus course. Topics include functions, linear equations, coordinate graphing, piece-wise formulation, exponents,...

Young scholars identify relation, function, patterns and range. In this algebra lesson, students factor and graph quadratic equations. They use transformation to move the parabola around and make predictions.

Students interpret a graph of ocean depths and topographic features. This task assesses students' abilities to interpret figures, organize and represent data, apply knowledge of scale to a profile, and apply theoretical knowledge.

Pupils solve 2 X 2 systems using graphing and algebraic methods.

Eighth graders graph two inequalities with a single variable. They include drawing the intersection or union of inequalities on a number line. Students solve the linear equations using properties of equality and inequality. The lesson...

Learners determine whether a hit baseball is a home run or not by utilizing parametric equations to describe the path of the ball. They assess the importance of angles and velocity needed to hit a home run. In addition, in their own...

Introduce your class to the federal tax system through an algebraic lens. This resource asks pupils to examine the variable structure of the tax system based on income. Young accountants use equations, expressions, and inequalities to...

An interesting instructional activity on hypothesizing about the diameter of a drop of blood that is splattered. To test their theories, learners work in groups to make blood droplets splatter from different heights. They use graphed...

Provide a real world context in which exponential functions are used to determine a eal world phenomena such as compound interest and exponential growth. This lesson should be taught after students have mastered the laws of exponents and...

Tenth graders explore mathematics by participating in hands-on daily activities. Learners identify a list of different shapes and classify them by shape, size, sides and vertices. They utilize tangrams and geometric pieces to gain...

High schoolers watch a video of real-world situations regarding speed, direction, velocity, force, etc. and answer questions while viewing. They then practice drawing and using vectors to solve more real-world problems.

Students distinguish between possible and impossible graphs of functions, and to learn why some graphs are impossible. They have practiced plotting functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane

Students solve weight equations. For this equations lesson, groups of students weigh and separate pennies to find information necessary to solve simultaneous equations. The teacher provides equations based on the weight of pennies before...

Students create a table of ordered pairs, using variables (dependent and independent), writing equations, converting metric and standard measurements for distance using mileposts.

Students collect information and use a line to represent it. In this algebra lesson plan, students investigate real world data to see if it makes a line. They graph the line comparing the relationship of the x axis with that of...

Students, after entering the given conditions into FoilSim, apply calculus techniques to verify predictions.

Use this worksheet as a warm up, a refresher exercise, or a practice after a more detailed lesson on graphing linear inequalities in two variables. Start with boundaries that are horizontal or vertical, then move into graphs with...

Start this activity with a brief description of how to solve absolute value inequalities. A space is provided to help classify the inequalities into types (greater than, less than, or equal to) and for learners to show how to graph their...

Fourth graders find the range, mode, median, and mean for each of the data sets (height and shoe size). They discuss which measure of central tendency for each data set best represents the class and why. Students graph the shoe size and...

High schoolers answer questions about the altitude range of the sun over time in Barrow, Alaska.

Students work together to discover the flow rates of faucets and rivers. They relate their results to engineering and applied science concepts. They make predictions on the flow rate of a nearby river in their local community.

Pupils collect data from tossing a ball into the air. Using a data collection device, they graph the data, set a window, and analyze the height of the toss, how long the ball was in the air, etc. They then find an equation that models...

In this unit, 3rd graders investigate one variable to see if they can make a paper plane fly farther. They use scatter plots to establish a possible relationship between variables then use what they have found to make a paper plane to...

In this algebra instructional activity, students evaluate exponential functions using tables and graphs. There are 6 questions with an answer key.
