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...

Learners graph and order numbers using a number line. They also solve word problems using fractions and decimals and rewrite equations to solve problems correctly. Several example word problems are given. 

Sixth graders formulate a question about microorganisms that can be answered with an experiment. They develop a hypothesis for a questin about microorganisms based on observations and prior knowledge. Pupils carry out an investigation on...

Collaborative learners will see the geometric addition of functions by graphing the sum of two graphed curves on the same coordinate plane. This task then naturally flows into giving learners the algebraic representation of the curves...

Table the decision to land. Pupils form flight crews by matching up different representations of linear equations. Given a set of coordinates for an airstrip, the crews determine the equation of the line that will position their planes...

This well-organized lab activity introduces earth science pupils to the greenhouse effect. They will set up two experiments to monitor temperatures in an open jar, a closed jar, and a closed jar containing water. Ideally, you would have...

Throughout this earth science exam, high-school geologists complete a series of multiple choice and short answer questions about the solar system, atmosphere, and earth system. This is an amazing test, as are all of the exams developed...

The 2006 version of the Regents High School Exam is just as thorough as the rest of them! Assess chemistry learners on an entire year's curriculum when they take this thirteen page test. 

Students graph linear equations on a Cartesian plane. After describing data tables and their use, students explore how the information from a table can be used to create a line graph. They discuss reasons for plotting a minimum of...

Students collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson plan, students graph their data and make inferences from the collected data. They display their data using graphs, bar graphs, circles graphs and Venn diagrams.

Target C from the Smarter Balanced assessment for eighth grade is understanding the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations. A slide show includes items about graphing proportional relationships and...

Students graph parabolas and circles. In this algebra lesson, students create a table of values and graph the coordinate pairs to create a graph. They graph a circle using the radius and center.

Students graph linear equations using a table. In this algebra lesson, students create a table of values using the linear equation to find the y-values. They plot their point on a coordinate plane and graph the line.

Fifth graders complete an integer graphing activity. In this integer graphing lesson plan, 5th graders use coordinate grids to help them complete linear functions and integer graphing.

Students solve equations and label it as a function or not. In this algebra lesson, students make a table of values and graph their equation. They identify the domain and range of each graph.

For this graphs of functions worksheet, students use a table of information on packages of gum/total pieces per package to solve a set of 6 word problems.

Fourth graders study immigration. In this graphing lesson, 4th graders make a population graph of people who have immigrated to Indiana.

In this collecting data worksheet, 4th graders view a table on ice skaters at a public rink in order to answer 2 multiple choice questions, 1 short answer question and make a graph showing one piece of the data.

Students use proportional reasoning to make a chart of daily savings transactions and balances. In this accounting lesson, students read word problems and complete three handouts about a bidding and accounting problem. Students finish...

Learners graph quadratic functions. In this algebra lesson, students identify the vertex and intercepts of a quadratic equations and graph the parabola. They find the axis of symmetry and make a table to find the values of the parabola.

In this graphing worksheet, students graph 10 equations using the following methods: slope-intercept form, x- and y-intercepts, or by using a table. Students check their work using a graphing calculator.

For this graphing equations on a grid worksheet, students solve 10 problems. Kids find the value of y for the value of x in the equations. Students make a table of ordered pairs and graph them on a grid.

Fifth graders explore the math concept of graphing integers. In this graphing integers lesson, 5th graders examine visual examples. Students also practice solving problems that their instructors model.

Third graders create a bar graph to record how many kernels were in a wheat stalk. They write in math journals two questions from interpreting the graph. They solve math problems from other students.
