In this computing determinants activity, learners explore methods of computing determinants. They complete determinant problems by using the co-factor method, the "big formula" and the use of product of the pivots. This two-page...

In this math worksheet, they give conditions on the constants a and b which ensure that x0 is a regular singular point of the equation. Then they write examples of polynomial functions.

In this math activity, students calculate the indefinite integrals. They also find the differential functions. Finally social diffusion is used to describe how information is passed through a sample population.

Students transform the square root function graphically.  In this transforming the square root function graphically instructional activity, students use their Ti-Nspire to change the a, b, and c values of th square root graph. ...

In this calculus worksheet, students apply the Taylor Series to exponential functions based at either zero or one. There are 2 questions with multiple parts.

Pupils solve problems using patterns. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the relation, domain and range of a function. They graph functions using coordinate pairs.

In this math learning exercise, students examine the graph of the derivative. Then they determine the critical points that correspond to the relative extrema.

For each of the equations they find the values of the rational expressions. Then they differentiate each expression in relation to the value of t.

Young scholars read real world problems, determine the variables, and set up the function using algebraic statements. After entering data into the graphing calculator, they display information in the form of graphs and scatter plots. ...

In this math instructional activity, middle schoolers graph the function. Then they determine the altitude in relation to the graph of the function using point (2,1).

In this math worksheet, students explore how the use of implicit differentiation does not give the solutions to the differential equation. Then they write the definitions to the vocabulary related to differential equations.

Third graders explore mathematics by solving problems in groups. In this math functions instructional activity, 3rd graders demonstrate their understanding of addition and subtraction by completing two digit math problems. Students...

Students investigate geometric shapes by creating figures on a plane. In this polygon lesson, students complete a worksheet based on the angles in a power polygon. Students identify the different types of polygons and define their...

Fourth graders are introduced to arithmetic and geometric sequences. In this mathematics lesson, 4th graders produce a variety of sequences by varying the starting number, multiplier, and the add-on number.

Students examine a graph and relate it to the real world situation it depicts. They investigate changes in an equation and the appearance of a line. They investigate the connection between the graph of a situation and the meaning of the...

Learners solve equations by graphing. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between functions and relations. They use the TI to graph their equation and analyze the graph.

Students explore patterns. They observe a video, "Math Monsters." Students determine the next item in a sequence. Students read books about patterns. They discuss patterns in quilts. Students visit a specified web site and design...

Students define the slope of the line, find the slope between any two points on the line, and allow them to name other areas where the slope is used. They explain why the slope is defined as the rise over the run.

Studetns use a spreadsheet to organize data on the sides of a triangle. They use the Pythagorean Theorem and the If then spreadsheet function to decide whether the three sides determine a right triangle. Students work individual...

Adjust this lesson to fit either beginning or more advanced learners. Build a scatter plot, determine appropriate model (linear, quadratic, exponential), and then extend to evaluate the model with residuals. This problem uses real-world...

Eleventh graders investigate arithmetic sequences.  In this Algebra II lesson, 11th graders create an arithmetic sequence and explore the effect of each variable in the formula of the nth term of an arithmetic sequence. ...

Learners investigate Microsoft excel. In this technology activity, students create formulas using excel and apply these formulas to solve relative, absolute and mixed reference cells. They perform immediate and delayed calculations.

Students plan the trip of a band across America. In this money planning lesson, students create a budget for the band using excel basic functions. They manage the band and its budget and relate the tour to future budgeting needs of the...

Learners investigate an accident and relate it to math. In this trigonometry lesson, students measure the accident scene, the friction produced, and the speed from the skid marks. They create a poster of their findings.
