Eighth graders use the order of operation correctly. In this algebra lesson, 8th graders solve integers using the order of operation. They apply the commutative as well as the associate property to solve problems correctly.

Students explore the concept of quadrilaterals. In this quadrilaterals lesson, students use the slope formula, midpoint formula, and distance formula to justify that a given quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Students explore the relationship between how big a side of a triangle is and how big its opposite angle is by creating triangles using an interactive website.

Explore properties of integers! In this algebra lesson, pupils add, subtract, divide and multiply using integers correctly. They differentiate between rational and irrational numbers.

Connect math with science! Pupils apply properties of Ohms Law as they solve problems and identify the inverse relationship of a function. They analyze the shape of the graph of an inverse function and use it to make predictions.

Students calculate the surface area of prisms. In this geometry instructional activity, students investigate the properties of prisms and analyze ways to calculate the are of a rectangular prism. They derive the formula for surface area.

In this three-dimensional shapes geometry lesson plan, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and toothpicks...

You may not be able to take a field trip to the moon, but that doesn't mean your class can't study moon rocks. Using graham crackers as the moon's bedrock and powdered donuts as micrometeorites, young scientists simulate...

Middle schoolers construct a three-dimensional model of a city using both similar and congruent figures and geometric transformations. City must have at least ten buildings with each building labeled and may be constructed out of paper...

Tenth graders explore the properties of the incenter of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders construct a triangle and the angle bisectors of each angle. The dynamic properties of Cabri Jr. allow students to locate and...

Students identify the properties of chords. In this geometry lesson, students multiply chord segments to find the solution to their problem. They construct two chords that cross on  a circles.

In this transitive property worksheet, students use the transitive property to help them solve the riddle for the order of men and where they stand. Students solve the riddle for 10 men.

Students explore secants and circles. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They create arguments to prove the theorems are true.

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.
