Students participate in a lesson that is concerned with the solving of multiple step equations and inequalities. The use of algebra tiles translates the information well for the kinesthetic learners. Then the skills are used to solve the...

Students investigate the concept of manipulating polynomials. They go through the process of using algebra tiles in order to practice grouping of like terms and model the solving process.

Sixth graders participate in a lesson that covers the reading and interpretation of a circle graph. They review the part of a whole concept for percents and student observe and practice using the circle graph.

Students investigate the concept of reflectons. They investigate how an image has a reflection that is symmetrical. They also choose household objects in order to have real life application for finding lines of symmetry.

Ninth graders investigate the concept of an inequality. They begin the lesson by covering relevant vocabulary. They write an inequality for each word problem given. Then they translate problems from words to algebraic inequalities.

Students become familiar with divisibility rules as they view a fun PowerPoint Presentation. Within this lesson, students are provided with a worksheet that explains the divisibility rules. Finally, students are given the opportunity...

Fifth graders complete an introduction to the Geometer's Sketchpad software. They explore various beginning functions and practice using required tools. Using the sketchpad, 5th graders measure given angles. They complete follow-up...

Fifth graders explore the required functions of the Geometer's Sketchpad. Using the computer software, they construct similar triangles and identify them by angles and sides. Students classify triangles. Afterward, they complete problems...

Students use a multiplication table to divide. In this multiplication table lesson plan, students use the answers in the multiplication table to find its factors. Students find the product of 5 and 6.

Students construct parallel lines using a protractor and a straightedge. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the properties of parallel lines. They use Cabri to graph and observe the lines.

Students calculate the area and diameter length of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the use of pivots as they review parts of a circle. They create a circle using cardboard and label all the parts.

Students collect and organize data, make a scatterplot, fit a curve to the appropriate parent function, and interpret the results. Students translate among the various representations of the quadratic function, formulate equations, use a...

Second graders practice counting by 2's and 5's. They complete five math problems counting by 2's and five math problems counting by 5's. They play a game by typing in a number that belongs in an egg and play By Five's to a 100.

Young scholars determine the distance between two points.  In this distance formula lesson, groups of students determine the distance between points in real life situations.  They calculate the distance from one point in...

Students discover the power of wind by flying a glider.  In this weather lesson, students describe their thoughts on wind and practice using weather related vocabulary.  Students construct model gliders in class and attempt to...

Students recognize that data represents specific pieces of information about real-world activities, such as the census. In this census lesson, students take a class and school-wide census and construct tally charts and bar graphs to...

Students discover the different types of mirrors, their properties and some of their applications. They have already been introduced to some of the properties of light and have already experienced some of the different types of mirrors...

Students investigate the placements of numbers on a number line. In this algebra lesson, students visualise addition and subtraction on a number line.

Second graders study graphing using pictographs and bar graphs. They graph pie charts, line graphs, and also change the graph scale up to 1000. They use the pictograph on the left to create the same graph on the right using a bar graph.

Second graders compare two digit numbers. In this comparing numbers lesson, 2nd graders discover greater than and less than symbols. Students read Five Little Monkeys Sitting In A Tree and use the story as a model for comparing numbers....

Students familiarize themselves with the three most common geometric shapes: circles, triangles and parallelograms. They sketch, sort, and name the shapes.

In this coordinate grid graphing worksheet, students play a game of Battleship on the computer. They answer 21 questions about the coordinate grid and graphing.

Students are introduced to connecting graphing in a coordinate plane to making scatterplots on a graphing calculator. Working in pairs, they connect points plotted to make a sailboat and complete questions on a worksheet as well as plot...

Students measure and write specific metric distances. In this archaeology lesson, students are given specific artifact locations on a map and measure the distance using millimeters.
