Learning how to prove theorems in geometry can be challenging. This resource explains what a proof is, and the different styles for proofs. It also contains links to web-based practice problems that help guide learners though example...

Do you know how the population has grown of your community? Can you predict the population over the next half century? Can we find an algebraic model that matches our data? These along with many more questions can be researched by...

Students participate in a WebQuest in which they must determine which amusement park is the "median priced" park. Students visit park websites to accumulate prices for parking, activities, restaurants, and gift shops.

In this multiples of 10 worksheet, students sharpen their math skills as they learn to use multiples of 10 to help them with division and then try the 2 extra practice activities.

This activity uses the division algorithm and the definition of a zero/root of a function to guide your class to see the relationship between zeros and factors of a general quadratic, which can later be generalized to the Remainder...

Students examine finding the sum of an infinite series as the limit of partial sums. Through hands-on activities, students create their own sequence by finding the area of a square and then cutting it in half-sized pieces. They write...

Students explore patterns and sequences. Given an example of each, they discuss their observations. In groups, students participate in an "Around the World" activity where they rotate to different stations in the classroom to determine...

Prepare young scholars for life in the twenty-first century with this introduction to computer coding formatted as a fun problem solving game, this resource is a great way to develop children's sequential thinking...

High Schoolers use the TI-83 calculator to produce a sequence, explore patterns and find a linear or quadratic equation for a given pattern. They use inductive reasoning to make conjectures about patterns. They find the Y-value of a...

Elementary learners discover counting through a counting chart. In this math activity, students identify numbers 1-100. They then point or recite their counting numbers.

Students practice counting sets of objects and numerals.  In this numerical identification instructional activity, students listen to the story, Bears Wears Buttons, and participate in a flash card activity where students must...

Students are asked what activities or things that they do each day. They are then asked do you do that in the morning, afternoon, or night? Students are then asked which of those things do you do first, second, third, and etc.

Sixth graders study number patterns. They observe dominoes to determine the next domino in the sequence. After studying the dominoes, they write an expression to represent the pattern.

Mitch Weiss and Martha Hamilton's Rooster's Night Out, a retelling of a classic Cuba folktale, launches a cross-curricular study of Cuban cultural traditions. Class members draw the characters from the book, participate in math and...

Pupils investigate the formulas for volumes of various solids using the Ti-89 calculator. The lesson focuses on the keying sequences necessary to embed the required volume formula in a program which is then used in the problem solving...

In this number sequence interactive worksheet, students fill in the missing numbers in each of the 14 number sequences. There are three numbers missing in each number sequence.

Learners sequence seven events from "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by matching the correct event with the day of the week. They recall details from the story as they unscramble words on a worksheet.

Students explore the relationships of space through movement. Two perform movement improvisation based on over/under. The activity improves hand-eye coordination, cooperation, and communication skills. The timing of the dance also...

Young mathematicians are introduced to fractions in a unit that helps them to understand parts of a whole.

Pupils work in pairs to investigate what it takes to prove that two triangles are similar. They work through various shortcuts to find which are enough to show a similarity relationship between the triangles. Small groups work with the...

Learning how to write computer code has never been so much fun! Given control of their very own robots, children create simple programs in order to solve a series of challenges and develop their problem solving skills.

Inquiry-based learning and investigations form the basis of a deep understanding of quadratic functions in a very thorough unit plan.  Learners develop recursive and closed methods for representing real-life situations,...

One is chance, two is a coincidence, three's a pattern. Scholars must determine similarities and differences of a regular hexagon undergoing dilation. They look at lengths, angles, areas, and symmetry.

Do your classes truly understand the distributive property? Use a demonstrative lesson to represent the distributive property in various ways. Learners solidify understanding by creating a geometric pattern for distributive...
