This assessment pair goes way beyond simple graphing, factoring and solving polynomial equations, really forcing learners to investigate the math ideas behind the calculations. Short and to-the-point questions build on one another,...

Students solve systems of inequalities. In this lesson, they identify the solution of the two lines and shade the solution. They identify the boundary line and the region representing the solution.

Students identify the slope of linear functions. In this slope lesson plan, students collect data and graph it. They write equations with no more than two variables and use technology to explain their data.

Students solve systems of equations. For this algebra lesson, students use matrices to solve linear equations. They use reduced row echelon-form and scalar multiplier to simplify the matrices completely.

Ninth graders graph linear equations and inequalities in two variables and then, they write equations of lines and find and use the slope and y-intercept of lines. They use linear equations to model real data and define to define the...

Students explore functions, function rules, and data tables. They explore terms of linear functions. Students use computers to analyze the functions. Students write short sentences to explain data tables and simple algebraic expressions.

Students investigate different online tutorials as they study graphing. In this graphing lesson, students apply the concept of graphs cross curricular and use it to make predictions. They define the purpose and theories behind graphs.

For this slope and functions worksheet, students determine the slope of a line.  They identify functions and determine an equation of a line that is parallel or perpendicular to given points.  This three-page worksheet contains...

In this scatterplots and regressions worksheet, students solve 6 different types of problems related to graphing scatterplots and interpreting regressions. First, they create a scatterplot from the given data coordinates and then,...

A function is like a machine that has an input and an output. Challenge scholars to look at the eight given points and determine the two functions that would fit four of the points each — one is linear and the other non-linear. The...

Sixth graders interpret linear and nonlinear graphs. They create graphs based on a problem set. Next, they represent quantitive relationships on a graph and write a story related to graphing.

Linear, quadratic, and now cubic functions can model real-life patterns. High schoolers create cubic regression equations to model different scenarios. They then use the regression equations to make predictions.

This un-scaffold summative assessment tasks learners to use the height of a bouncing basketball, given the data in graph and table form, to choose the model that is represented. Learners then use the model to answer questions about...

This highly scaffolded, summative assessment tasks learners to choose the model that represents the height of a bouncing basketball given the data in graph and table form. Learners then use the model to answer questions about the...

In this Algebra II lesson, students explore the connection between the factored form of a quadratics and the zero of a function. Students use a graphing calculator to verify factoring numerically and graphically.

In this algebra worksheet, students solve one step equations using multiplication. They are reminded of an equation needing the same thing done to both sides. There are 12 linear problems.

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Young mathematicians first graph a series of quadratic equations, and then investigate how various parts of the equation change the graph of the function in a predictable way.

Students investigate motion using a CBL. In this algebra instructional activity, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They define and identify amplitude and period of conic graphs.

Students identify the slope of an equation using various methods. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and calculate the slopes using the x and y intercept to solve the equations and graph the lines. They use the slope...

Students explore inequalities. In this Algebra I lesson, students solve and graph linear inequalities involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.  Students use inequalities to solve and graph real-world problems.

Students discover the linear relationship between degrees Farenheit and degrees Celsius. They manually compute the slope and y-intercept of the line passing through points. They convert Celsius to Fahrenheit degrees.

Students practice using algebra to be applied to real world situational problems. The key concepts of translation of language to algebraic expressions is covered. They also look in depth at relationships between different quantities.

For this matrix worksheet, learners explore and solve problems with matrices by addition, subtraction, multiplication and using linear equations. There are 28 problems with some answers.
