Pupils investigate integrals and their relationship to velocity in this calculus lesson. They use the idea of a moving elevator to explore vertical motion and use the TI to help them create a visual.

In this math worksheet, students label each of six integrals as true or false. They evaluate twelve integrals. Students evaluate the graph of a function.

Students explore the concept of finding the area between two curves. In this finding the area between two curves instructional activity, students model the logos of McDonalds, Nike, and Motorola on grid paper. Students find functions to...

Students practice addition and subtraction. In this fact families unit, students practice finding sums and differences for fact families. This unit includes ten lessons with science and social studies integration.

Students investigate the acceleration of a car.  In this acceleration of a car instructional activity, students make a scatter plot of corvette acceleration data.  Students find a model to fit the data by taking the integral of...

In this area worksheet, students set up integrals which evaluate the area of a region bounded by graphs. they use vertical and horizontal cross-sections. This two-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.

In this lunar crater frequency worksheet, students use the power-law function to solve 3 problems related to the number of craters in a given area. They integrate the power-law function to determine their answers.

Students determine the mass of various objects. In this integrated math and science lesson, students use an arm balance to compare a known object to a combination of washers with a fixed weight. Students record data, construct a bar...

Graphing conics made easy. Individuals use an interactive to graph conic sections. The app can handle circles, vertical and horizontal parabolas, ellipses, and vertical and horizontal hyperbolas.

For use with a TI-nspire calculator, this lesson plan focuses on adding and subtracting polynomials. Learners use calculator to add and subtract polynomials using both the vertical method horizontal methods. A class discussion follows...

Young geometers explore relationships between units of measure and objects. Three activities provide varied opportunities to practice. Learners calculate the volume of two cylinders made by rolling a piece of paper vertically and...

In this area of regions worksheet, students determine the area of a region enclosed by a graph. They find the volume of a solid and write equations involving an integral expression for given conditions. This two-page worksheet contains...

This detailed presentation starts with a review of using key components to graph a line. It then quickly moves into new territory of taking these important parts and teasing them out of a word problem. Special care is...

In this area learning exercise, students find the area of regions bounded by graphs. They set up integral equations for determining the vertical cross-section and the horizontal cross-section of a given figure. This one-page learning...

Young mathematicians investigate the use of symmetry in graphic design. After first learning about reflection, translational, and rotational symmetry, children use this new knowledge to identify symmetry in letters of the...

An AP calculus lesson begins with an activity to determine the volume of a solid using a cross-section. Next, learners review the ways to find the area between two curves , as well how to find the volume of a solid created...

Students estimate and calculate the distance of a shape. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between a horizontal distance and it's reflected image. They measure the reflection and the point starting at the eye of the observer.

In this Algebra I/Algebra II worksheet, students graph lines parallel to an axis.  The one page worksheet contains one multiple choice question with the answer.

Learners take pictures of items they believe have at least one line of symmetry. They print their photos out in class and analyze the items they photographed. They continue by entering the names of their pictures into a spreadsheet. They...

Who knew quilting would be so mathematical? Introduce linear equations and graphing while working with the lines of pre-designed quilts. Use the parts of the design to calculate the slope of the linear segments. The project...

Create trigonometric functions from circles. The first lesson of the module begins by finding coordinates along a circular path created by a Ferris Wheel. As the lessons progress, pupils graph trigonometric functions and relate them to...

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...

Students discover how to make a graph that represents the number of letters in their names. In this early childhood math lesson plan, students collect data, categorize data, and develop skills to analyze the pieces of data.

Where do those asymptotes come from? Learners graph, simplify, and solve rational functions in the fifth module of a 10-part series. Beginning with graphing, pupils determine the key characteristics of the graphs including an in-depth...
