Students investigate parabolas and their equations.  In this parabolas and their equations lesson plan, students graph quadratic equations on their graphing calculator.  Students find the axis of symmetry of a parabola. ...

Fifth graders estimate how many M&Ms are in a pre-counted bag. They determine how many colored M&Ms are in a bag, then decide which of the two, bar graph or circle graph (in this case, circle graph) would be best to show te results.

In this probability activity, 8th graders solve and complete 15 different problems related to determining the probability of various events. First, they complete the table illustrated on the sheet. Then, students use the table to respond...

Fourth graders compare two sets of data by using a double bar graph. In this data analysis lesson plan, 4th graders study a double bar graph and complete questions based upon the data. Students construct a table to show the data from the...

Fourth graders add and subtract decimals as they use a table to solve budget based problems.

Students solve linear inequalities. In this solving linear inequalities activity, students solve one step inequalities algebraically. Students graph the solutions on a number line. Students compare the graphs of various inequalities such...

Young scholars recognize, describe and extend patterns in three activities. They organize data, find patterns and describe the rule for the pattern as well as use the graphing calculator to graph the data to make and test predictions. In...

Students examine functions and function notation. They use computer activities to discover how to graph functions, and conduct a vertical line test. Students describe spatial relationships using coordinate geometry.

Students estimate and then count the number of each color of M&M's in their bag. In this mathematics lesson, students find the experimental probability of selecting each color from the bag. Students create pictographs and bar graphs...
