Pupils practice a variety of strategies with varying numbers of tiles to form shapes and then find the minimum and maximum perimeter for each one. Each group is assigned a different area to build either with square tiles or a geoboard....

Have the class factor and solve trinomials of integers in the form x2 + bx + c, where b and c are positive. They relate factoring to area and then follow a specific format to factor their trinomials. Tiles are used to help them...

Students design a "dream house" and plan to install flooring, tile and other products that are bought by a certain measurement. Problem solving be used in determining how much of each product to use and the total cost of each installed.

Third graders create polygons with perimeters of 30 centimeters, use the centimeter grid paper to determine the area of each shape, and organize the shapes to make generalizations from the patterns they see.

Students create three-dimension models demonstrating exponents, multiplying and dividing of fractions, and the use of repeating patterns in tessellations, mirror images, and tiling.

Students explore pentominoes in this activity. They build shapes as directed and color the tiles on their grid sheet.

In this stars and the modern telescope worksheet, learners use a photograph taken by the 2MASS telescope to calculate the number of bright stars and faint stars in the picture, the size of the picture, and the number of stars expected to...

Students solve linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve equations using addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. They evaluate and simplify functions.

Ninth graders classify and solve polynomials. They use algebra tiles to add or subtract polynomials. Students solve the area of specific rectangles using algebra tiles. Students identify coefficients and classify polynomials.

A short video introduces place value in addition and subtraction. As a class, your students identify all even numbers up to one hundred and explain the pattern. They use addition strategies to fill in the missing numbers on the number grid.

Learners learn the difference between perimeter and area by watching a video and a hands on activity.

Students create a rectangular garden using paper and tiles. For this geometry lesson, students investigate the largest possible rectangle that can be created given specific boundaries. They use grid paper to draw the rectangles creating...

Students participate in monthly scaffolded lessons that focus on working with whole numbers from 1 to 10. They work with tiles on exploration mats, number tile mats, and a number representation book. Each month they complete activities...

Students investigate the geometrical concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They make different observations looking for the concepts that are displayed in classroom items like floor tiles, carpet designs, and visuals hung in...

Students factor trinomials. In this algebra lesson plan, students use special patterns and formulas to factor. They utilize algebra tiles as a hands-on method for gaining practice with trinomials.

In this math worksheet, students solve 30 problems in which a fraction and a mixed number are multiplied. Examples are written horizontally on the page.

Learners factor trinomials using patterns and their TI to graph their results and make predictions through this lesson. This is accomplished by solving quadratic equations through FOIL and algebra tiles.

In this math learning exercise, students create and solve equations with the help of Algebra Tiles. Then they apply formulas for geometry to find the perimeter of a polygon.

Put out by Texas Instruments, this lesson involves learners in an activity focused on adding polynomials, solving equations, factoring trinomials, and expanding binomials. A TI-89 calculator is needed to complete this lesson.

Help learners translate word problems into algebraic equations. They will rewrite words using symbols and evaluate algebraic expressions using real life scenarios, animation sequences, video presentations, and activities to help young...

Students investigate polynomials. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems dealing with multiplication of polynomials by using the distributive property and the FOIL method. Students also describe how the...

Measure your pupil's learning in a lesson designed to explore decimals by weighing different candies on a scale and recording the weight. Small groups then compare and order the decimal weights on a number line to show their...

In this tessellations worksheet, 10th graders solve 6 different types of tessellation problems that includes drawing. First, they define polygon, regular polygon, tessellation, regular tessellation, and semi-regular tessellation. Then,...

Students engage in a study of the Pythagorean Theorem to classify the hypotenuse of a triangle. The teacher uses examples from the lesson to aid students in comprehension of solving problems that involve problem solving. They create a...
