Learners solve and complete 20 different problems that include using a U.S. map and data table. First, they calculate the probability that they will select a state that begins with each letter of the alphabet. Then, everyone completes...

Students engage in a instructional activity that is concerned with the concept of quadrilaterals and how they are used to create a rectangle for a door. They create a drawing of a quadrilateral while finding the sum of the angles. They...

Learners engage in a study of mean, median, mode, and range in order to represent data in tables. They are also exposed to the results of data that is skewed because of the outlier.

Review basic algebraic rules of addition of integers. Then have the class define a variable and explore methods of solving equations with one variable. They observe solving expressions using inverse operations and simplifying solutions....

Third graders examine how multiplication is a quicker and neater form of addition and how they can simulate the concept of groups and (sets) to construct the visual effect of multiplication by way of forming groups of (2's) (3's) and (4's).

This dual vector lesson has the class watch a video about a person's swim of the English Channel. The class then uses a computer program to analyze dual vectors of wind's effect on a flight path of a plane as compared to the water...

Eighth graders explore the Pythagorean Theorem. They use Geometer's Sketchpad and explore features of various figures. Students use the software to build a figure using the given measurements.

Prealgebra apprentices read seven phrases and write an expression for each. The printable version of the worksheet is not very attractive; it has the standards information printed at the top. The problems are arranged in a table and are...

In this algebraic expressions and equations learning exercise, 9th graders solve 12 various types of problems ranging from writing expressions for each written equation to solving 8 different word problems related to cost, speed, age,...

Your young landscapers do concentration calculations in this problem dealing with mixing fertilizer. Learners use and analyze rational expressions within this context.

Creating an expression to represent the perimeter of a rectangle is a fundamental beginning skill in learning how to use and define variables. This activity starts with the basics and can be followed up with additional tasks. 

A guided lesson using the WolframAlpha computer program. The class explores the basic operations of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing matrices to solve problems.

This activity looks at writing expressions to represent perimeter of a rectangle and then considers the concept of equivalent expressions and the distributive property in more detail.
