Rewrite a quadratic function to easily see the transformations involved. The instructional task takes a general quadratic function and rewrites it into a form that shows the translations and scaling of the parent quadratic function. The...

Scholars learn how using algebra tiles to add and subtract polynomials can model how to combine polynomials. They use their newfound knowledge to complete a worksheet of problems.

Not all resources are created equal — and your class benefits! Scholars learn how to solve one-step inequalities using inverse operations. They complete an activity matching inequalities to their solutions.

Play a game of capture the points. Young scholars receive a number line with specific points graphed and must write an inequality that captures all the points. The second task of the algebra project is to write an inequality with...

Where do those asymptotes come from? Learners graph, simplify, and solve rational functions in the fifth module of a 10-part series. Beginning with graphing, pupils determine the key characteristics of the graphs including an in-depth...

Fraction and integer operations follow the same rules.  Assess the depth of understanding with operations with rational numbers using a presentation from the Grade 7 Claim 1 Slideshow series. A set of slides presents 12 question and...

Quickly get to the decimal point. The last assessment in a nine-part series requires scholars to work with decimals. Pupils compare the race times of several athletes and calculate how much they have improved over time. During the second...

Show learners how to apply rational equations to the real world. Learners solve problems such as those involving averages and dilution. They write equations to model the situation and then solve them to answer the question —...

Demonstrate the use of scientific notation within word problems. The lesson presents problems with large numbers best represented with scientific notation. Pupils use these numbers to solve the problems in the 11th installment in a...

Ninth graders study the correct way to solve equations using the order of operations. They apply a mnemonic device to remember the proper order.

Students explore which fractions are made real in our world. They also show the relationship of cross multiplication and equivalent fractions To reinforce fraction skills.

Students explore a variety of functions. They recognize and describe functions and use linear functions to describe situations. Students find the domain and range of linear functions and graph rational expressions.

In this significant figure worksheet, high schoolers identify significant figures. They convert numbers from standard notation to scientific notation. This one-page worksheet contains 14 problems. Answers are included at the bottom of...

In this linear equations worksheet, students solve 9 different linear equations by applying the point-slope formula in each. First, they determine the linear equation of each. Then, students use the slope and one point of the line to...

In this word problems activity, students practice solving word problems having to deal with money, baseball cards, candies, and more. Students solve 9 problems.

Seventh graders graph solutions for inequalities on a number line. They solve 1 and 2 step inequalities in one variable. Students also check solutions to 1 and 2 step equations in one variable
