Pupils explore tangram puzzles. In this tangram fraction lesson, students read Grandfather Tang and then practice solving tangram puzzles. Pupils identify fractions of the pieces of the tangram puzzles and then create a design using...

In this rational inequalities worksheet, 9th graders solve 10 different equations that contain rational inequalities in each. First, they find the zeros from the numerator and the undefined points from the denominator. Then, students use...

Provide pupils with problems to check their understanding of the concepts within the unit. The seven-part series of lessons covers concepts related to irrational numbers. Learners convert between fractions and decimals, estimate the...

Conquer any irrational fears you might have of irrational numbers. As class members investigate how to represent numbers geometrically, they learn about rational and irrational numbers, including approximating and ordering rational...

This unit on fractions allows for upper-aged elementary learners to explore ways to find the greatest common factor and least common multiple of two numbers. Ultimately, young mathematicians will be able to identify equivalent fractions,...

Make the cookies healthy. The assessment task asks pupils to determine the number of cookies they could make based on a given amount of ingredients. Given two sugar substitutes, learners determine which substitute would be better and...

In this comprehensive diagnostic test worksheet, learners examine, study, calculate and solve 38 math problems. They work with a variety of basic math concepts and word problems.

Seventh graders use the World Wide Web for research, identify fractions found in everyday life by finding a recipe that uses fractions.

Fourth graders explore fractions. They use Skittles and M&M's to practice adding and subtracting fractions. Students review the numerator and the denominator of fractions. They count the number of each color of Skittles and M&M's...

Young scholars discover fractions by creating models. In this fractions lesson, students read Give Me Half! by Stuart J. Murphy and view a video about what fractions actually represent. Young scholars divide a square piece of paper a...

Students collect data to create different types of graphs-line, pie, and bar graphs. They use StarOffice 6.0 to create graphs.

It's assessment time! Determine your young mathematicians' understanding of elapsed time with this brief, five-question quiz.

First there was pi and now there's e. A discovery-based activity helps learners find a pattern in compound interest as the compounding period changes. Their investigation results in the discovery of the number e. The activity is the...

Determine the level of understanding of decimal and fraction values within your classes with a resource that provides pupils with opportunities to practice with decimal and fraction concepts. 

Sixth graders explore using inverse operations to solve decimal and fraction problems. In this decimal and fraction lesson plan, 6th graders prepare ribbon for a part and need to cut it in equal lengths. Students analyze the problem.

Once you have introduced the concept of comparing positive fractions, use this plan to further understanding. Pupils will start mixing positive and negative fractions through various learning activities. Note: Adapt this lesson plan to...

Test your scholars' knowledge of a multitude of concepts with an assessment aligned to the California math standards. Using the exam, class members show what they know about the four operations, positive and negative numbers, statistics...

In this third of a twelve-part series, the focus moves from using matrices to solving systems of equations with substitution and elimination, including more than two dimensions and variables in equations, and analyzing statistical data....

Learners explore multiplying fractions and their relationship to parts of a whole. They draw and shade fractional parts to show parts of a whole and fractional parts of a fraction. Pupils also use an Internet site for interactive...

In this algebra worksheet, high schoolers compare integers, translate words to a numerical expression, identify sets of numbers, identify properties, use order of operations, multiply fractions, and solve simple word problems. This 13...
