Your learners will explore the idea that not all functions have real numbers as domain and range values as seen in this real-life context. Secondly, the characteristics required for a function to have an inverse are explored including...

Build a solid understanding of logarithmic functions and equations. Five lessons in the module begin by developing the concept of a logarithm. The next lessons address graphing logarithmic functions, logarithmic properties, and solving...

Through discussions and journaling, classmates determine methods to associate types of functions with data presented in a table. Small groups then work with examples and exercises to refine their methods and find functions that work...

Reverse the wrapping to get to the gift. Using the idea of unwrapping a gift, the activity introduces the concept of inverses. Pupils first determine the order needed to evaluate a function at a point, then use the reverse to find the...

In this machines worksheet, students review the six simple machines and how to calculate mechanical advantage. Students complete 8 matching, 16 fill in the blank, and 6 problems to solve.

Students investigate simple linear functions by trying to guess a function rule from inputs and outputs. They write the function rule in algebraic form.

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.

In this computer hardware instructional activity, learners read a brief paragraph about the differences between computer output and input devices, then write input or output next to a list of 11 computer components.

In this graphing instructional activity, students solve a set of 6 word problems, finding the value of X, making values equal to a given number, writing function rules and determining inputs and outputs.

First graders explore number sense by participating in a measurement estimation activity. In this weight lesson, 1st graders discuss the differences between measurement units, both English and Metric. Students examine a loaf of bread to...

Sixth graders explore patterns and sequencing. As a class, they name numbers that fit in a pattern. Students use pattern blocks to construct and identify patterns. They use a calculator to create input and output functions.

Young scholars define computer terms such as hardware, software, input and output devices, central processing unit, etc. in their own words, and relate terms to computer system they are using.

Students collect and graph their data. In this precalculus instructional activity, students identify the input and out of a function. They find the domain and range and the inverse of a function.

Seventh graders identify the use of a function.They are asked to describe the input and output of a function. Students also identify different aspects of the coordinate system and represent functions in a visual graph.

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...

Discover relationships between linear and nonlinear functions. Initially, a set of data seems linear, but upon further exploration, pupils realize the data can model an infinite number of functions. Scholars use multiple representations...

Time for matrices and complex numbers to come together. Individuals use matrices to add and multiply complex numbers by a scalar. The instructional activity makes a strong connection between the operations and graphical transformations.

Young people between the ages of 11–13 need on average about 2,000 calories per day. Within the lab, groups learn about calorimetry and respiration. They explore how it pertains to humans and animals living the Arctic where cold...

How does a computer recognize voice commands? Scholars learn about digital assistants and natural language processing (NLP) algorithms in the ninth lesson of the series. They begin building a simple digital assistant and work on this...

Which deal is best? Learners determine which of two companies has the best deal for a particular number of shirts. They begin by creating a table and equations containing each company's pricing structure....

Fifth graders study dehydration and dehydration of foods. They measure the amount of water lost from fruits as they are dehydrated. They use desktop publishing software to design an advertisement for dehydrated fruit after researching...

Examine multiple ways to solve algebraic equations. Pupils will generate a problem solving strategy that addresses the prompt given by the teacher. They will then share their problem solving strategy with the class. Graphic organizers,...

In this limitations of formulas worksheet, students answer four essay questions about functions. Two questions refer to the limitations of formulas. They graph one function and explain how it specifies the rule of the function.

In this double the numbers and half the numbers worksheet, students problem solve by doubling, complete an input-output table by halving, and play a dice game and doubling the numbers. Students solve 28 problems.
