It is unknown if cloud cover increases in response to carbon dioxide levels changing, helping climate change slow down, or if cloud cover decreases, allowing Earth to warm faster. Part four in the series of five lessons has classes...

Using a carousel activity, class members gain an understanding of the idea of inferences by using pictures then connecting them to mathematics. Groups discuss their individual problems prior to sharing them with the entire class....

Trying to understand the vastness of outer space can be quite a challenge for young scientists. Help put things in perspective with this cross-curricular activity as students work in pairs creating scaled models of...

Students practice basic coordinate graphing and plotting points on the coordinate axis. In this geometry lesson, students are introduced to ordered pairs, and the x and y axis.

Youngsters use a graphing calculator to assist in creating a function table. They graph the function on a coordinate plane. They explore the relationship between the domain and range in the graph. This four-page worksheet contains two...

From Pythagorean triples to the unit circle. Learners use the Pythagorean Theorem to find Pythagorean triples and then relate their work to the unit circle in a fun algebra project. Their discovery that x^2+y^2 is always equal to one on...

In this math worksheet, students will work in a group to experiment with the weight of objects when placed at a distance from a scale (using a plank). Students will record and graph their results.

Solve systems of equations with your super smart upper graders. They solve systems of equations and then graph two lines to find where they intersect. The focus on the activity is to have learners explore moving a point to...

Sixth graders examine how to locate coordinate points. In this coordinate graphing activity, 6th graders locate the x and y axis. Students use their arms to show horizontal and vertical lines, participate in group and...

Eighth graders extend skills for representing and solving linear equations to linear inequalities. Lesson activities build understanding and skill by plotting ordered pairs of numbers that either satisfy or do not satisfy a given...

Students graph ordered pairs to model the relationship between numbers. After observing the patterns in ordered pairs, they describe the relationship, and create graphs from a data table. Students describe intervals in the graph, and...

Young scholars use coordinate graphs in order to identify objects and their locations. They are shown how to plot the x and y coordinates and then are given values to be plotted during guided and independent practice. Students are...

Students perform translations and reflections. In this algebra instructional activity, students use the TI calculator to graph functions. They move the functions around on the coordinate plane using translation and reflection.

Students graph and shade inequalities. For this algebra lesson, students graph inequalities using the slope-intercept form. They shade the side of the line that is the solution and identify the domain and range.

Use coordinate grid paper to plot points and identify shapes that are already plotted on the paper by saying their coordinates. Pupils also measure the distance between points and play the game Battleship. There are several web links and...

The brother-sister pair Carlos and Clarita need your class's help in developing their new pet sitting business. Through a variety of scenarios and concerns presented to the siblings, the learners thoroughly explore systems of equations...

Pupils determine the pattern in collinear points in order to determine the next point in a sequence. Using the definition of slope, they practice using the slope formula, and finish the activity with three different ways to...

Eighth graders plot points and investigate polygons. They locate a point, using ordered pairs of integers on the coordinate plane. Students compare geometric measurements and computations on coordinate axes as they are applied to...

Rotate this resource into your lesson plans. Scholars rotate polygons in the coordinate plane by multiples of 90 degrees. They then compare the original and new figures to develop conjectures about coordinate points after rotations.

Learners map their playground as if it were an archeological site. They locate objects on the playground and determine their location using coordinate points. A related lesson is Coordinate Grid: Mapping an Archeological Site.

In this revision activities worksheet, students plot the development of tension throughout the book, answer seven questions about plot, analyze characters and theme, and discuss the writing style of the author. Students answer ten short...

Students create a simple table in order to solve a problem. As a class, they create a simple data table in order to discover the number of letters in each student's name. This data is interpreted in order to answer questions and make...

In this calculator active graphing worksheet, students graph 12 equations via a calculator and transfer the graphs onto coordinate grids.
