In this algebra worksheet, students combine like terms and solve for the given variable on 12 linear equations. Ten of the equations require students to use the distributive property.

Here is an engaging geometry instructional activity which has learners identify the properties of shapes and cut shapes out of magazines. They make cookies using cookie cutters in various shapes.

Seventh graders practice finding the area and perimeter of polygons. In this polygon area lesson plan, 7th graders brainstorm shapes and take a walk to locate shapes. Students record properties of shapes and use various shapes to...

In this algebra worksheet, students add, subtract and multiply using complex numbers. They apply the correct property of i as they solve. There are ten questions with an answer key.

Young scholars study the law of sine and cosine. In this pre-calculus lesson plan, students create a triangle and identify the different ratios of a non-right triangle. They use the properties of sine and cosine to solve.

Middle schoolers apply properties of probability to the real world. In this probability instructional activity, learners simulate the construction of empirical distribution. They collect and analyze data using central tendencies.

Hooray for chocolate chip cookies! Ask your mathematicians to triple a chocolate chip cookie recipe and then reduce the recipe by one-fourth. Your class may need two days to complete, tripling the recipe the first day and reducing the...

Students investigate the properties behind the quadratic equation. In this algebra lesson, students identify quadratic equation in the real world. They graph the parabola and identify the vertex and intercepts.

There are many ways to work through a multiplication problem. Using an area model, kids complete several worksheets with different types of multiplication problems, including multiplying by ten, and explain how the new strategies differ...

How do you know if a number is divisible? Instructors first prove the divisibility rules for three and four and then class members use this modeling to prove given divisibility rules for eight and nine either individually or in...

Collaborative discussions around this retail store problem will be taxing. Calculating discount and tax and the order of the operations are used to motivate an opportunity for learners to make a convincing argument using algebraic...

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 simplify complex number...

Positive or negative, zero or no solution, are all possibilities for the solution of a linear equation. Here the resource gives examples of linear equations in one variable and their type of solutions. The resource comes with commentary...

Most adults dread April 15 — tax day! Tax preparation can be intimidating even for adults. Build confidence by leading individuals through the process and then give them a scenario to practice. The exercise uses tax vocabulary to give...

Polygon ... an empty bird cage? After finding the angles of a polygon, young mathematicians use the provided methods to solve the problem in multiple ways.

Is that drawn to scale? Capture the artistry of geometry using the ratio method to create dilations. Mathematicians use a center and ratio to create a scaled drawing. They then use a ruler and protractor to verify measurements. 

Review the principles of scaling areas and draws a comparison to scaling volumes with a third dimensional measurement. The exercises continue with what happens to the volume if the dimensions are not multiplied by the same...

Young mathematicians first learn the basics of proving trigonometric identities. They then practice this skill on several examples.

Scientists don't have a ruler long enough to measure to the stars, so they rely on math. Scholars learn to calculate the distance from Earth to a star using the parallax method. They use angle measures from different perspectives to...

In this congruent triangles worksheet, high schoolers solve four multiple choice problems. Students determine which statement is the appropriate reasoning to say that two triangles are congruent.

There are four main topics in this bundle of lesson plans. They don't need to be taught sequentially. Each instructional activity has three parts: a starter, a main activity, and something to help consolidate and provide reflection on...

A triangle rests in quadrant two, from which your class members must draw reflections, both over x=2 and x=-2. This focused exercise strengthens learners' skills when it comes to reflection on the coordinate plane.

Welcome to the backward world of negative numbers. This introductory lesson teaches young mathematicians that negative numbers are simply the opposite of positive numbers as they use number lines to plot and compare...

Apply the power of mathematics to the power expressions. The lesson gives examples of expressions that utilize each of the exponent rules to simplify. Once seeing the exponent rules individually, scholars combine them to simplify an...
