Learners use a spreadsheet to investigate data. In this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They explain properties of a linear equation both algebraically and orally.

Sixth graders are introduced to and practice the concept of scientific notation. Following a brief description of scientific notation and a demonstration of how to convert numbers to scientific notation, 6th graders practice writing...

Students experiment with Hiker program to practice real world applications of linear functions and develop their understanding of expressions, relationships, and manipulations involved in writing and graphing linear equations in...

Students practice the concept of limits graphically, numerically and algebraically. They participate in an exploration lab, BINGO game and complete a puzzle.

Students solve systems of 2-by-2 linear equations using tables, graphs and substitution. In small groups, classmates work together to discover strategies for solving equations. They use a calculator to graphically represent their answers.

Students study the different types of weather, how it affect what they wear, and how it is related to the seasons. They compare the seasons and tell how they prepare for the change in seasons. They design a creative presentation about...

Pupils assemble and decorate a calendar. This is a lesson to be used at the beginning of each month to make a calendar for the month. Math concepts for this lesson consist of each student writing numbers on the calendar.

Students investigate properties of lines and points by making a rover. In this algebra lesson, students plot points correctly on a coordinate plane. They identify coordinate pairs given the plots and lines.

High schoolers are introduced to the notion of a complex number and function iteration in order to motivate the discussion of Julia sets and the Mandelbrot set.

Young scholars learn new vocabulary and discuss what GPS is and does. They locate their school using the equipment.

Eighth graders extend skills for representing and solving linear equations to linear inequalities. Lesson activities build understanding and skill by plotting ordered pairs of numbers that either satisfy or do not satisfy a given...

Students dribble and catch a ball. In this number dribble lesson students are given numbers and math equations that require them to dribble or throw the ball a specific number of times. The students practice dribbling independently and...

Middle schoolers collect data, graph it, and use the data to find measures of central tendencies, and find probabilities.

Learners use manipulatives and examine situations where probability can be used.

Young scholars use a grid-like method to create a life-size self-portrait from a 3X5 black and white photo. They explore the different customs and rituals surrounding face painting from ancient through modern civilizations. Students...

Students solve problems. In this math lesson, students write solutions using LOGO commands in order to help get the turtle to the pond.

Students solve and graph inequalities involving absolute value. They discuss and identify the basic properties of inequalities, and solve basic examples.

Students examine scatterplots and determine the equation of a line using the slope-intercept method. Students interpret graphs, draw inferences, and sketch a curve of best fit for the graph. Based upon patterns in the graphs, students...

In this mathematics worksheet, 4th graders write a division sentence and a multiplication sentence for each illustration. Then they continue the patterns for the given numbers and write another division for each division problem using...

Second graders study Fulton and his Steamboat, the "Trail of Tears," the Oregon Trail, the Transcontinental Railroad and the Pony Express in this series of lessons.

A combination of informative text, photos, and graphics comprise this sharp show on electromagnetic radiation. Some slides mention hands-on activities for demonstrating concepts, so if you want to include them you will need to figure out...
