Curated OER
Equation of a Circle
High schoolers write the equation of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students check the solution of a coordinate pair by evaluating them. They graph the circle given the equation and radius.
Curated OER
Standard Form of Quadratic Functions
Students factor quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students identify the factors and use them to graph the parabola. They find the parameters and vertex of each graph.
Curated OER
Investigating Correlation
High schoolers investigate different types of correlation in this statistics lesson. They identify positive, negative and no correlation as it relates to their data. They then find the line of best fit for the plotted data.

"Money In My Pocket"
Second graders assess a brief history of money, the use of money, working with money as well as adding and subtracting with money and how to spend money wisely with responsibility. In addition, they discuss how everything belongs to God...
Curated OER
Angles That Pair
Students identify angles. In this angles that pair lesson, students identify adjacent, vertical, complementary, and supplementary angles. They use straws, pretzel sticks to demonstrate given types of angles.
Curated OER
Away We Go!
Students study types of transportation. In this transportation lesson, students survey several classes to gather data on how they get to school. Students create a transportation graph.

Writing Equations for Parallel Lines
Acquaint your class with the concept of parallel lines. Learners watch a PowerPoint presentation about how to write equations of parallel lines. Their understanding of linear equations and slope is taken a step further by the...
Curated OER
Recording Frequency
First graders analyze nursery rhymes and gather data about word frequency. In this frequency lesson plan, 1st graders create graphs and tables. Students interpret the data.
Curated OER
Balancing Act
Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.
Curated OER
The Ambiguous Case
Students investigate the relationship of triangles with its sides and angles. In this geometry lesson, students create visual on the graphing navigator as they study triangles. They move the sides around to create different angle-side...
Curated OER
Secants, Tangents and Arcs
Students identify chords and angles. For this geometry lesson, students calculate the length of the chords inside and outside of-the circle. They differentiate between tangent and secant lines.
