It's all about the patterns! Young scholars learn that the unit circle repeats itself in all four quadrants. Using these patterns, they evaluate the sine, cosine, and tangent of special angles.

Individuals learn to divide and conquer complex numbers with a little help from moduli and conjugates. In the second lesson on complex number division, the class takes a closer look at the numerator and denominator of the multiplicative...

Provide Algebra I learners with a logical approach to making connections between the types of sequences and formulas with a lesson that uses what class members know about explicit formulas to develop an understanding of...

Students identify patterns in equations. In this algebra lesson, students write equations of problems with recurring patterns. They relate and model real life situation using functions.

Young scholars demonstrate various patterns using dance. In this expressive arts lesson, students are led in a warm-up to demonstrate the AAB pattern, which includes spinning and jumping. Young scholars are broken up into groups and...

Start off with the definition of the imaginary number i, then have your class practice simplifying expressions involving powers of i and look for patterns. See how the cyclic nature of powers of i translate to sums of powers of i.

Solve problems using integration and derivatives. By using calculus, learners will analyze graphs to find the extrema and change in behavior. They then will identify the end behavior using the derivatives. Activities and handouts are...

Young scholars describe geographical places through art, music, writing, and math. They compile information in booklets which may be published.

Students differentiate between exponential growth and decay. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve exponential equations using properties of exponents. They use the Ti calculator to graph and analyze their functions.

Learners will shout "Eureka!" in this quick but deep activity replicating the famous bathtub experiment of Archimedes. Given the scenario of a king with a suspected fake crown, young investigators develop formulas using density to...

Touchdown! This is an exponentially insightful lesson that explores the growth of football games with different video game consoles. Class members discuss whether the increase of mergahertz can be described as linear or exponential....

Having a good working knowledge of math vocabulary is so important for learners as they progress through different levels of mathematical learning. Here is 125 pages worth of wonderfully constructed vocabulary and concept review cards....

Young scholars use concrete and pictorial representation of geometric patterns to extend patterns. In this geometric patterns lesson plan, students identify patterns and extend them.

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

Second graders study movements. For this dance lesson, 2nd graders draw patterns selecting one to represent through movement with their body.

Help your young mathematicians completely master 10 by practicing one-to-one correspondence, number recognition, and recording numbers displayed. They make 10 with groups of two-different colored cubes and color in 10-frames to show how...

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.

Use this series of activities to introduce learners to graphing functions. They graph both linear and quadratic equations by hand and with a Graph Sketcher Tool. Several imbedded links and handouts are included in the lesson.

Use a learning exercise to go over the basic concepts of relations and functions. Included are clear definitions and examples of relations, domain and range, and functions and the vertical line test.  However, the problems are...

Students work with patterns to develop formulas that will help them determine total cost. In this patterning lesson, students watch a video about an NBA trainer. (not included) They work in groups to access the assigned Internet websites...

Your algebra learners interpret algebraic expressions, in order to compare their structures, using a geometric context. They also discern how the two expressions are equivalent and represent a pattern geometrically and algebraically.

Build on your class' understanding of real numbers as they begin working with complex numbers. Pupils begin with an exploration of i and the patterns in the powers of i. After developing a definition for i, they...

Challenge the class to utilize their knowledge of linear and quadratic functions to determine the intersection of the parent quadratic graph and linear proportional graphs. Using the pattern for the solutions, individuals develop a...

Youngsters become flexible problem solvers with this challenging lesson. If there are 24 square tables in a restaurant, how many customers can be seated at one time? They can use manipulatives or draw pictures to help them find the...
