In this tile diagrams activity, 8th graders solve and complete 12 different problems that include using cups and tiles to solve each equation listed. First, they show the check process for each problem by substituting their answer for...

Pupils identify and define various mathematical properties, such as the commutative properties of addition and multiplication, and the associative property of addition. They also reason and communicate mathematically by making...

Young scholars participate in graphing data.  In this graphing data lesson, students make a stem and leaf plot of their summer activities.  Young scholars create numerous graphs on poster boards.  Students discuss the...

Introduce your class to the lattice method as a way to multiply polynomials. This lesson is specifically aimed at getting learners to use methods other than Algeblocks to solve polynomials.

Fifth graders work in groups to investigate the proper use of a graph during a schoolyard ecology project. The challenge of the project is for students to choose the proper form of a graph. They gather data and conduct analysis with the...

Young scholars explore the concept of tessellations. In this tessellations lesson plan, students use an applet to construct tessellations. Young scholars use regular polygons to construct tessellations. Students find patterns and...

Young statisticians are introduced to box plots and quartiles. They use an activity and discussion with supplemental exercises to help them explore how data can be graphically represented.

In this multiplying binomials worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 23 different types of problems. First, they use the Distributive Property to find each product. Then, students use the FOIL method to find each product. They also...

This worksheet offers six problems to practice solving simultaneous equations using the method of elimination. Start with systems that require multiplying only one of the equations. Then move to systems which require multiplying both...

Students explore the concepts of mean, median, and mode. They develop an understanding and familiarity with these concepts. Students explore mean and median in an efficient way. Students explore three different measures of center.

Fourth graders find the range, mode, median, and mean for each of the data sets (height and shoe size). They discuss which measure of central tendency for each data set best represents the class and why. Students graph the shoe size and...

Ninth graders engage in a instructional activity that is about the concept of probability using the context of recording data and predicting outcomes. They collect marbles while recording data and graphing it. The graph is analyzed and...

Learners add, subtract, and multiply radical expressions. The worksheet includes like and unlike radicands. Use as a study guide during a lesson or for skills practice.

Use this worksheet to write equations in both point-slope form and slope-intercept form. Start by writing equations given one point and the slope and finish by writing equations given two points and a few real-world applications. The...

This basic handout would be good for skills practice or a review of parallel and perpendicular lines. Review the definitions, then practice writing equations of lines that pass through a specific point and are either parallel or...

A worksheet that offers four problems to practice solving simultaneous equations by graphing. Equations are presented in slope-intercept form or standard form. Problems include two with unique solutions, one with no solution, and one...

Practice solving linear systems of three equations with three unknowns using the elimination method and substitution method. This handout includes graphics of different combinations of intersecting planes to help illustrate the different...

Use this worksheet as a warm up, a refresher exercise, or a practice after a more detailed lesson on graphing linear inequalities in two variables. Start with boundaries that are horizontal or vertical, then move into graphs with...

In this math patterns worksheet, students solve 10 problems in which a pattern is made with matchsticks on a grid. Students figure out how many matchsticks it will take to continue the pattern. Students also use simple algebra to figure...

In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus activity, students solve problems that involve arithmetic series and infinite geometric.  Students determine the partial sums of a geometric series. The three page activity contains forty-six...

Students generate patterns from a structured situation, find a rule for the general term, and express it in words and symbols. They also devise and use problem solving strategies in a systematic way.

Sixth graders analyze expressions and equations. In this algebra activity, 6th graders write algebraic sentences and solve for an unknown in a one-step equation. This activity uses the formulas for the perimeter of a square and rectangle...
