In this number comparisons worksheet, 1st graders use the number line to help them compare the numbers in each set. Students circle the words greater then, less than, or equal to for the 19 problems.

In this comparing numbers activity, students examine 20 pairs of 1 and 2 digit numbers. Students identify whether the first number in each pair is greater than, less than, or equal to the second number.

Students discuss methods to solve equations and inequalities with one variable. As a review, they write Addition and Subtraction properties of equality and Multiplication and Division properties of equality. Students graph points, write...

Here is a presentation that helps young mathematicians hone their skills when counting by tens. The presentation also reviews the concept of using the greater than and less than symbols when comparing numbers. Most of the slides have...

Mathematically complete a set of blueprints. Using eight linear inequalities, pupils create a blueprint of Thomas Jefferson's home. Individuals graph the linear inequalities and position the solution of the inequalities before...

These math puzzles are sure to get your first and second graders thinking. Nine word problems about odds and evens, as well as greater than and less than, keep learners guessing. If you're working on mental math in your class, use these...

These crocodiles are hungry for the biggest numbers they can find! This is a fun way to illustrate number comparison; use crocodile mouths as the greater than and less than symbols. There are two examples (with teeth...

In this absolute value equations worksheet, students solve absolute-value equations and inequalities. They graph answers on a number line. This one-page worksheet contains 34 problems.

As a continuation of a previous lesson, this activity builds on the concept of calculating the terms of a sequence. Pupils are challenged to determine the smallest starting term to reach a set number by a set number of rounds. Notation...

Move on into trigonometry. An informative eBook takes the content of a College Algebra course and adds more relating to trigonometry and trigonometric functions. The content organization allows pupils to build upon their learning by...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders complete an indirect proof and order the sides or angles of a triangle. Also, students determine if a triangle can have sides with the given lengths. The two page worksheet contains twelve...

Shakespeare was such a talented writer, but why? It must be his use of figurative language, blended with his clever, twisting plots. This worksheet focuses on his use of metaphor, simile, personification, oxymoron, and hyperbole within...

As they examine 10 pairs of numbers, learners fill in the box between them to compare values. They use mathematical symbols to indicate greater than, less than, or equal to. The numbers are between 5 and 99. This drill-and-practice...

Shell Silverstein’s “Sick” provides an opportunity for kids to demonstrate their understanding of syllables and phonemes. The class creates a list of descriptive words used in the poem that have more than one syllable, and brainstorm how...

Have you ever stretched out a Slinkie so much it wouldn't go back to its original shape? Slinkies, like all springs, follow Hooke's Law. A simulation uses springs and masses to demonstrate kinetic, potential, and thermal energy. It...

Don't throw away those transparency sheets just yet! Young scholars first review inequalities on a number line, then learn about graphing inequalities in the coordinate plane. Finally, they use overhead transparencies to create systems...

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

Through exploration of linear programming through graphs and equations of inequalities, students relate linear programming to real life scenarios, such as business. Graphing and shading is also part of this exercise.

How many ways can you represent solutions to an equation? Guide your class through the process of solving equations and representing solutions. Solutions are described in words, as a solution set, and graphed on a number line....

Use texts and dances to teach inequalities and equations. A sixth-grade unit covers using variables in equations and inequalities to solve problems. Learners show what they know at the end of the unit using two performance tasks, one...

Section 9 of the 12 linked Saxon Math sections introduces the young algebrist to graphing periodic functions, creating graphs from quadratic roots, working with inequalities, and rational equations. Common among all the lessons is the...

In this, the third in a series of four resources that use Robert Wise's 1951 version of The Day The Earth Stood Still as the core text, young film makers examine the language of film including shot composition, camera angle, lighting,...

What causes sound? Groups of sound detectives use a variety of tools including ping pong balls, pasta noodles, raisins, rubber mallets, and a tuning fork to investigate what causes sound. The young Sherlocks conduct a series of...

Graphing systems of linear inequalities is the focus of this worksheet. Problems range from checking solutions of inequalities, graphing systems of two inequalities, and graphing systems of three inequalities. Graphing horizontal lines,...
