Finding the critical numbers of a function can be extreme. The lesson introduces the Extreme Value Theorem to the class with a graph. Pupils then have an opportunity to practice determining the values using an algebraic function.

Read a series of word problems and have your class identify the process to solve them. They practice identifying, comparing, and ordering integers. They focus on recognizing opposites and the absolute value of number. An assessment...

Challenge your students' algebra skills with this activity, which presents students with several types of problem sets, including solving inequalities, graphing, word problems, and a set of algebra problems that may or may not require...

Solve a real-life problem using function-building skills. Presented with an open-ended question, scholars complete a checklist to create and justify a solution in an interesting algebra project. The checklist asks for justifications of...

In this integers and absolute value instructional activity, 6th graders solve and complete 24 problems. First, they write an integer for each situation described. Then, students evaluate each expression. They also graph each set of...

Overall, this worksheet contains a good selection of problems that reviews different aspects of linear equations. Learners examine and graph linear equations, absolute value equations, and inequalities in two variables. The three page...

Learners solve word problems using number sense. They convert fractions to decimals and mixed numbers. Pupils determine if a given fraction is greater or less than another fraction, and order numbers on a number line.

A neat and organized formula handout makes the circle go round, doesn't it? Full of higher algebra topics, formulas and rules, graphs and definitions—there is a way to support everyone in Algebra II or Pre-Calculus. 

In this function families learning exercise, learners graph 6 families of absolute value equations on a graphing calculator and transfer a sketch to graph paper. Students then answer 8 questions to identify the vertex.

In this velocity worksheet, students determine the distance traveled when an object is moving in a straight line. Students graph functions and determine the slope of the line. This two-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

In this ratio, rates and percentages activity, 8th graders solve 22 various types of problems related to ratios, rates and percentages. They first write ratios in lowest terms and describe each of comparison stated. Students also solve...

Algebra learners look at equivalent expressions in the context of three different operations: division, squaring, and absolute value.  In comparing these values, they will identity when expressions are equivalent. 

Here is an extensive set of teacher's notes to help you teach all about integers. Begin by introducing a number line and how it can be used to visualize positive and negative numbers. Talk about absolute value and the additive inverse...

Prealgebrarians use colored chips, stickers, and pencils to explore the world of integers. They discover absolute value, compare positive and negative integers, and apply operations to them. A detailed procedure for the three-part...

Which is colder -12 or -18? Temperature is natural real-world application of ordering rational numbers. It's also fun to talk about the lowest recorded temperature on Earth. Take the time to discuss this inquiry with your class. 

Here is a lesson that starts with having geometers translate points using compass directions into an accurate picture of the problem. Then they must use their knowledge of the Pythagorean theorem or similar triangles to solve. This makes...

Four inequality statements are given for the same two negative numbers. The resource is a good practice for pupils to interpret statements of inequalities relative to the position on the number line. The objective is for pupils to...

The second lesson in a series of 25 shows the class how to use arrows and a number line to add integers. Learners apply their knowledge of the commutative property and absolute value in their explanations. Classmates play the integer...
