Students graph lines and identify the slope. In this algebra lesson plan, students graph a line using y=mx+b and graph lines that are horizontal or vertical. They calculate the slope of the line using two points, and identify lines by...

In an orderly fashion, go through diagramming sentences with your class. Beginning with a simple sentence and the placement of subject and verb, subsequent slides slowly add on more branches and lines with explanations of sentence types...

This activity is jam-packed with linear equations! Learners write equations in slope-intercept form and standard form. Horizontal and vertical lines are included, as well as graphs for several of the problems.  A great way to...

Make these funky checker board patterns. They will not only add fun decoration to your classroom, but your pupils will be able to practice using simple geometry tools.They will use tools to make lines and circular shapes using a ruler,...

Students are introduced to The Geometer's Sketchpad software while in the computer lab. They focus on triangles, horizontal lines, vertex and top parallel lines. Each student utilizes geometry to complete basic geometric constructions.

Eighth graders use a stencil to make a figure with which they discover the horizontal line of reflection, the vertical line of reflection, and the diagaonal line of reflection using coordinates.

Students use corrugated cardboard to create a printed relief project. Using the cardboard, they review geometric designs, shapes and discover how to use vertical and horizontal lines. They practice relief printing with different materials.

There's nothing improper in learning about fractions. Scholars apply an interactive to explore models for proper and improper fractions. They then answer a set of questions in a game that requires building models for given fractions and...

The San Andreas Fault is the largest earthquake-producing fault in California. In the seventh lesson plan in the 20 part series, pupils create maps of California, focusing on the San Andreas Fault system. The comparison of where...

Students explore graphing. In this graphing lesson, students predict how many shoe eyelets are present in the classroom. Students count eyelets and work in groups to organize and chart the data collected. Students put all the data...

In this human population growth learning exercise, students create a graph of human population growth and predict future growth using the data given in a chart. Students identify factors that affect population growth.

Students draw an accurate geologic cross section by using a given data table. They relate the features of the cross section to geologic processes. Students then relate the characteristics of the bedrock to the architecture.

Students create name art. In this visual arts lesson, students use horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines to highlight their own names in print. Students use primary colors to create secondary colors in the project.

Students find and define the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson,students differentiate between positive and negative slopes. They define the properties and slopes of vertical and horizontal lines.

Students study perspective drawing. They create depth on a flat surface by using size and placement and define horizontal line. They investigate the basic techniques of using watercolors.

In this A.P. Calculus exam practice test, students answer 28 multiple choice questions. Questions cover a wide variety of topics. Students tell the position of a particle moving along a horizontal line. They identify the solution to a...

Learners observe and demonstrate a variety of basic geometric constructions using the Triman Safety Compass. Using the compass, they draw circles, bisect a line segment, construct an angle, bisect an angle, copy an angle, and create...

In this geometry worksheet, students utilize mathematical strategies to figure out which of four lines are vertical, horizontal and/or parallel.

Students solve problems with slopes. In this algebra lesson, students identify the slope of a line and relate it to the rate of change.  They graph their lines on the TI and observe changes in the lines.

Explore different representations of numbers. Scholars convert between fractions, decimals, and percents, and then use these conversions to plot the values on a horizontal number line.

Explore the practical uses of adding numbers with decimals as scholars add measurements and money. The first 12 equations are written vertically with half the sums requiring a dollar sign and half a unit of measurement. The next six are...

Elementary schoolers make and use bar graphs to picture information. They learn how choosing the right scale for a bar graph can help make a persuasive argument. This is a terrific lesson on graphing which should excite your kids. There...

Can your class write linear equations three different ways? Here is a study guide that includes slope-intercept, standard, and point-slope forms. Learners are given the slope and a point on the line, or two points and are asked to write...

Learners solve and complete 22 various types of problems. First, they find the gradients of the lines and plot the given points. Then, they complete the table of values for each equation and use the table to draw the graph.
