Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

Students identify properties of trapezoids. In this geometry lesson, students are put into groups and use computer programs to analyze polygons. They drag and move the shapes around as they make predictions.

Students identify properties of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students label polygons as parallelogram or not. They define and label the properties of a kite.

Pupils define properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the relationship between two and three dimensional objects. They use Cabri technology to graph their figures.

Students solve exponential functions. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the properties of logarithmic and exponential functions. They graph their functions and solve using change of base formula.

Students explore the concept of logarithms.  In this logarithms lesson plan, students graph logarithms on their Ti-Nspire calculator.  Students describe the shapes of their graphs by identifying slope, y-intercepts, and...

Learners are introduced to zoning. Evaluating information and reading a land-use map is enclosed in this lesson. List new development projects that they could propose for a given area.

Sixth graders use a number line to solve addition and subtraction problems. In groups, they play a game of "Human Number Line Relay." They use a deck of cards to randomly create addition and subtraction equations and physically walk a...

In this properties of trigonometric functions worksheet, students complete 4 sections consisting of 15 problems involving problem solving using Pythagorean and trigonometric identities and sketching functions..

Young mathematicians explore quadratics equations in this instructional activity. They investigate the relationship between the standard form and factored form of quadratic equations. Learners then examine the relationship between the...

Students define functions to be graphed using the Y=key. They demonstrate how to set up a standard viewing screen using Zoom 6. They discuss and explore mathematical questions on a worksheet.

Students explore statistics by completing a graphing activity. In this data analysis lesson, students define a list of mathematical vocabulary terms before unpacking a box of raisins. Students utilize the raisins to plot data on a line...

Students explore the properties of light. In this light lesson, students investigate visible light by viewing a website, examining an electromagnetic spectrum chart, and observing light demonstrations. Students write about their...

Learners analyze plotted data in this statistics lesson plan. They differentiate between skewed and normal data. They also explore and interconnect exponential growth and decay as it relates to the data.

Twelfth graders assess their knowledge of trig functions and their properties. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders take a test on derivatives, trig functions, and the quotient rule. There are 2 different versions of the same test...

Students investigate the organic acids present in a variety of juices. In this organic acids lesson plan, students read about the effects of organic acids in juices. They use paper chromatography to separate out the acids present in a...

Students practice mental addition and use the associative and commutative properties of addition to solve problems.

High schoolers explore the basic building blocks of our planet.  In this minerals lesson plan students begin the process of forensics on the basis of investigation and drawing conclusions from observations. 

Students investigate the ties that architecture and math have in common. They focus on works of architecture in the world that is considered of great significance. Students use the internet to find building images from around the world....

Students define the purpose of several different types of boats. They develop a list of materials one would ideally use in the construction of a particular type of boat. Students work cooperatively in a group to decide what type of boat...

Can they put it all together? Ninth graders apply what they know about proofs and triangle congruence to complete these proofs. These proofs go beyond the basic triangle congruence proofs and use various properties, theorems, and...

Third graders are challenged to use scientific thinking, they experiment and observe which objects are attracted to a magnet. Pupils use the evidence to construct an explanation as to what common property the objects attracted to a...
