Have fun with shapes! Third graders read a set of instructions and circle the shape in the description. They work on recognizing parallel sides and right sides. Use this resource as homework after your geometry lesson.

Can your mathematicians come up with an easy way to convert miles to kilometers? Start by asking learners to write an algebraic expression for each of the descriptions given. Once they determine that they are both the same, ask...

Young geometers develop one of the fundamental properties of quadrilaterals (connecting side midpoints gives a parallelogram) in this short but thought-provoking exercise. Using a combination of hands-on techniques and abstract algebraic...

Without ever using the actual term, this exercise has the learner develop the key properties of the midsegment of a triangle. This task leads the class to discover a proof of similar triangles using the properties of parallel...

Learners solve linear equations. By observing the graph of each side of an equation using the TI-nspire graphing calculator, your class gains insight into solutions, as well as balancing equations and transforming linear equations....

Use the real-world cost of parking a car to demonstrate the properties of a function. The resource describes to learners how much it is to park in a certain lot. It is up to your number crunchers to complete a table of minutes...

Algebra and geometry are not interchangeable. Demonstrate why not with a series of problems that deal with the equations of circles and equations of lines that meet specific criteria. 

The process requires the combination of several concepts. A video shows how individuals need several concepts to add rational expressions. Pupils must remember they need to find common denominators, combine like terms, and use the...

Seventh graders review graphing procedures and practice locating points using x,y coordinates. Students calculate the areas of the top and bottom surfaces of the airfoil. They construct a test model of the airfoil.

Congratulations, you've just hit the word problem jackpot! Covering an incredible range of topics from integers and fractions, to percents, geometry, and much more, this collection of worksheets will keep young mathematicians...

Natural human interest in patterns and algebraic study of function notation are linked in this introductory unit on the properties of sequences. Once presented with a pattern or situation, the class works through how to justify...

Gaining practice in translating a verbal description into a diagram and then an equation is the real point of this similar triangles exercise. Once the diagram is drawn, multiple methods are provided to reach the conclusion. An effective...

This first of twelve algebra 2 resources provides a broad review of many algebra 1 concepts through a number of separable lessons and labs. Starting with the real number system and its subsystems, the sections quickly but thoroughly...

Students examine problem solving techniques when working on spatial problems. They discover how models, sketches, and drawings can be used to understand on something works. They design a model of a bridge using given dimensions and...

Bringing together the young artists and the young organizers in your class, this lesson takes that popular topic of tessellations and gives it algebraic roots. After covering a few basic properties and definitions, learners attack the...

Don't get irrational about rational exponents. A PowerPoint presentation highlights the sample high school questions from the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) Claim 1 Target A item specifications. As one part of a larger...

There are only two options to consider: rational or irrational. Pupils review rational and irrational numbers by answering a set of eight questions provided in a PowerPoint presentation. Part of larger Claim 1 Item Slide Show series, the...

Students identify different properties of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students complete problems that proves the theorems and properties of parallelograms. They graph the different shapes on paper.

In this multiplication mental math worksheet, 6th graders answer multiple choice questions about the commutative, associative and distributive properties of multiplication.

In this properties of real numbers worksheet, 9th graders solve 10 different problems that include applying various properties for real numbers. First, they identify the property of real numbers that is demonstrated in each problem....

Students solve problems using the distributive property. In this algebra lesson, students solve equations by multiplication and combining like terms. They graph their lines on the calculator.

Seventh graders review rational numbers. After listening to a story, 7th graders define the distributive and identity properties. They observe examples of each property and play a race game to practice identifying the properties. ...

Students explore the distributive property. In this algebra lesson plan, students are given Fruit Loops or other manipulatives and the class is divided in half. Each half of the class completes part of the equation to show that both...

Fourth graders complete problems where they demonstrate their knowledge of the distributive property of multiplication. In this distributive property lesson plan, 4th graders are provided with worksheets.
