In this math worksheet, students analyze 24 groups of 6 numbers each. Kids write the minimum number and the maximum number in each set. There are no examples; it appears that students are to write the biggest and smallest numbers in each...

Let the graph tell the story! Adding context to graphs allows learners to analyze the key features of the function. They make conclusions about the situation based on the areas the graph is increasing, decreasing, or has a maximum...

Buying a new sofa? Learn how to use the Pythagorean Theorem, as well as algebra and graphing techniques, to determine whether the sofa will fit around a corner (which I'm sure you'll agree is a very important consideration!).

The key is ... After a day of instruction on key features of graphs, groups create a poster and presentation on the key features of their given function graph. The resource provides an extension activity of "telephone" using...

Linear, exponential, now it's time for quadratic patterns! Learners build on their skills of modeling patterns by analyzing situations with quadratic functions. The sixth module in the Algebra I series has pupils analyze multiple...

Get out your TI-nspire graphing calculator and explore polynomials. Learners determine where a given polynomial are increasing or decreasing, find maximums, minimums, and zeros of polynomials, and discuss end behavior of polynomials....

Many learners find completing the square the preferred approach to solving quadratic equations. Class members combine their skills of using square roots to solve quadratics and completing the square. The resource incorporates a...

How do you graph a quadratic function efficiently? Explore graphing quadratic functions by writing in intercept form with a lesson that makes a strong connection to the symmetry of the graph and its key features before individuals write...

Young scholars engage in a lesson that is concerned with the concepts of absolute maximum and minimum while solving for absolute extrema. They solve example problems that are used for direct instruction, guided practice, and independent...

In this statistics activity, students identify the different parts of a whisker plot. They find the minimum, maximum and the three different quartiles.   There are 8 multiple choice questions with an answer key.

In this absolute value worksheet, students use the absolute value function to solve functions. They identify the maximum and minimum values in triangular inequalities. This two-page worksheet contains eight problems.

For this organizing and interpreting data worksheet, students solve and complete 10 different problems related to reading various data tables. First, they complete the 3 charts shown with the correct tally amount, frequency amount, and...

Eighth graders experience the Lewis and Clark expedition. In this Corps of Discovery lesson, 8th graders research details regarding the expedition in order to complete a classroom project that requires them to create journals that might...

In this function worksheet, students compute the directional derivative of a function and identify the xy-coordinates of the maximum and local minimum. This two page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

In this graphs activity, students solve and complete 15 various types of problems. First, they determine the range of the function of the graph shown and write in interval notation. Then, students find the domain of the function in the...

Absolutely! Find the global maximum and minimums. Pupils watch a video showing how to find the absolute maximums and minimums of a function on an interval by testing critical points. The learners see how to determine whether a critical...

Take a second look at extrema of functions. Pupils learn how to use the second derivative to determine whether a critical point is a maximum or a minimum. Learners use concavity to identify critical points as either a max or a min and...

Accumulation functions should behave like other functions. Using content from Unit 5, pupils analyze the first and second derivative to determine the behavior of an accumulation function. Learners find out how to calculate the relative...

Here is a great set of eight scenarios that require the writing of a one-variable inequality and then solving to find the solution. This inequality word problem activity is then followed by the solutions to each of the eight problems.

Functions require an input in order to get an output, which explains why the answer always has at least two parts. After only three multi-part questions, the teacher can analyze pupils' strengths and weaknesses when it comes to...

Wrap it all up in a box. Pupils review the key concepts from an Algebra 2 polynomial functions unit by working 19 problems. Problems range from using the Remainder Theorem to find remainders and finding factors; sketching graphs by...

Determine the better deal. Pupils write the equation for the cost of printing tickets from different printers. They compare the costs graphically and algebraicaly to determine which printer has the best deal based upon the quantity of...

Get the class to take an extreme look at functions. The interactive presents a function on a closed interval with a movable tangent line. Using the given function, pupils determine the extrema, critical points, and points of...

The test is not all about skills. The six free-response questions contain two real-world application problems. Those items deal with populations and velocities. The other four questions ask pupils to show their knowledge of calculus...
