Daily production of dairy? Determine profit and production requirements for a yogurt company with unit conversions and percentages to solve problems.

Scholars first learn to graph square root and cube root functions by creating a table of values. They then learn how to graph functions from transformation of the graphs of the parent square root and cube root functions.

Functions as inputs for other functions? After reviewing function notation and how to input values to evaluate functions, class members input functions into functions, essentially determining the composition of functions.

Time to see what they've learned. Seventh graders solve a set of seven short problems in the ratios and proportional relationships domain. Applications include photo negatives, washing machines, coffee powder, sleep, stamps, etc.

Express your wonder at this resource. Middle schoolers solve 10 short problems in the expressions and equations domain. They apply operations with scientific notation, set up and solve equations, and analyze linear equations.

Sometimes simple is just better. A set of activities teaches young mathematicians about using plausible estimation to solve problems. They break problems down to simpler problems, use rounding and estimation strategies, and consider...

Laws are meant to be broken, right? Learners derive the Law of Sines by dropping a perpendicular from one vertex to its opposite side. Using the Law of Sines, mathematicians solve for various parts of triangles.

By making the following changes to the roads, we can prevent several accidents. A multiple-day lesson prompts pupils to investigate accidents in a small town. Pairs develop a proposal on what to do to help reduce the number of...

The more you text, the less you study. Have classes test this hypothesis or another question related to text messages. Using real data, learners use technology to create a scatter plot and calculate a regression line. They create a dot...

Provide learners with a worksheet that provides problems that focuses on direct and inverse variations, proportional relationships, graphing, and word problems. The goal is to find the outcome and decide what type of variation the...

 Introduce learners to what factoring represents and it's relationship to a square with a resource about factoring and the method of area models. The questions are scaffolded to begin with introductory questions and eventually have...

Develop probability distributions from simulations. Young mathematicians use simulations to collect data. They use the data to draw graphs of probability distributions for the random variable in question.

Explore how to deal with fractional and negative exponents. Scholars watch a video reviewing fractional, zero, and negative exponents. After the video, they test their skills by completing a worksheet covering the concepts.

Class members investigate the effect of a negative scale factor dilation on coordinate shapes as they watch a short video that shows an example of a geometric figure undergoing a dilation with a negative scale factor. Learners then try a...

Learn how to solve a triangle. Young mathematicians view a video that explains how to apply trigonometry to find missing sides and angles of a right triangle. A learning exercise tests their understanding of the concept.

Scholars learn how to determine the area of compound shapes by finding the areas of the basic shapes that make it up. Pupils find the areas by adding areas together or subtracting them.

Measure lines in inches using the most common tool of measurement: a ruler. Young mathematicians use a ruler to measure various lines. They also learn to round the the nearest quarter when measurements are not precise.

Examine the connection between rational functions and their graphs. Individuals use an online manipulative to sort equations with horizontal and oblique asymptotes. They focus on the degree of the numerator and denominator.

There's nothing irrational about this lesson. Explore the process of multiplying rational expressions through discovery. A well-designed lesson has learners factor and multiply rational expressions by dragging factors to the correct...

Be a hero, not a zero! Help your classes understand how to solve quadratic equations with the zero product property using an animated simulation. Using the controls, scholars manipulate the zeros and watch as the function and its factors...

Investigate polynomial factoring patterns by finding a connection to volume. As learners build a three-dimensional solid from smaller solids, they convert the visual model to a mathematical expression. Their models represent the sum of...

How can you draw a number? A set of questions takes learners through the reasoning for why a geometric construction can be drawn to represent the square root of a number. An interactive helps visualize the construction.

Learners use a pair of sliders to investigate how changes in a variable affects other variables in joint variation. A set of five challenge questions tests understanding.

Catch a great resource! Individuals use an interactive that allows them to move players on a baseball field. They calculate distances between players using the Law of Cosines.
