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...

Clarify the Common Core standards for your eighth grade mathematicians with this series of classroom displays. By rewriting each standard as an achievable "I can" statement, these posters give students clear goals to work toward...

Develop a model for prep. The resource provides examples of how items reflect modeling and data analysis for Smarter Balanced assessments. Items use on-grade or below-grade content to focus on the modeling aspect. The questions revolve...

What is absolute value? What is an absolute value function? Emerging mathematicians solve equations containing variables inside an absolute value sign.  They graph each function on a coordinate plane and identify the maximum and...

Move vectors to determine their difference. Pupils use an interactive to visualize the opposite of a vector. They use the concept of adding vectors to subtract vectors by adding the opposite and, finally, view the differences of the...

Everything the class knows about similarity in one small package. The last portion of a 16-part series is a three-question assessment. In it, pupils demonstrate their application of similar figures and their associated...

Avoid the mines and win the game! Young scholars direct a robot through a minefield by plotting points. Their goal is to reach the target in as few moves as possible.

Don't throw away those transparency sheets just yet! Young scholars first review inequalities on a number line, then learn about graphing inequalities in the coordinate plane. Finally, they use overhead transparencies to create systems...

Students plot points on the x-y plane using x and y coordinates and describe how the x and y values relate to the position of the point on the plane. They plot points that fit a linear relationship. They explain that their horizontal and...

Students plot points on the x-y plane using x and y coordinates. They describe how the x and y values relate to the position of the point on the plane. Finally, students plot points that fit a linear relationship and summarize that a...

Learners construct a variety of right triangles using a right-angled set square, cutting corners from pieces of paper or cardboard, and using dynamic geometry software. They measure the sides of these various right triangles and record...

Teaching learners about latitude and longitude can get a little complicated. Present the concept by first representing it as a graph. Just like finding a location on a graph using the x and y-axis, learners will be able to locate items...

In this linear equation activity, 5th graders complete the equations, and fill in the function tables, before graphing the equation on the coordinate planes in 4 problems . They use equations with variables to solve 2 problems.

Fifth graders practice solving problems.  In this fraction and decimal lesson, 5th graders recognize the relationship between fraction and decimals.  Students estimate problem results and write expressions to use for problem...

In this geometry worksheet, students plot coordinate pairs and connect the points to create different shapes. They give th shapes its polygon's name. They differentiate between simple functions and rectangular hyperbola.

Learners use a coordinate grid. They investigate and discuss what caused certain objects to be in specific places. They choose a room in their home to map and place objects in specific locations.

Sixth graders identify benchmark angles as they are embedded into a circle grid. They observe the teacher using an angle ruler and complete a Star Spangled worksheet, play the game Tomb Robbers, and as a class discuss their game winning...

In this linear equations worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 7 different problems that include a number of linear equations. First, they determine the slope given the points and then write an equation in slope-intercept form. Then,...

In this systems of linear inequalities worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 10 various types of problems. First, they determine whether a given point is in the solution set of a system of linear inequalities. Then, students graph...

For this area of polygons worksheet, students solve 7 short answer and multiple choice questions about area.  Students find the area of triangles given base and height, or points in the coordinate plane.

First graders are introduced to a coordinate graph. They are given a graph and follow directions to place stickers in the designated blocks. They write coordinate points to identify the placement of their stickers.

Here is a functions learning exercise in which learners solve functions containing variables, graph the coordinates, and answer two questions about it. They complete 14 functions.

Learners 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 assessed on...

In this math learning exercise, students plot the course for a ship traveling from one point to another using two Cartesian coordinates. Then they plot the vector of the course.
