Curated OER
Celsius to Fahrenheit
Young scholars convert degrees between two different units. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and identify the line of best fit. They use their line of best fit to make predictions given a set of data.

Modeling the Keeling Curve with Excel
In this modeling the Keeling Curve worksheet, students use given data beginning in 1960 to create a mathematical model for the changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide over time. Students manipulate the equation to predict the carbon...
Curated OER
Means of Growth
Students collect and graph data. In this statistics lesson, students analyze their plotted data using a scatter plot. They identify lines as having positive, negative or no correlation.
Curated OER
STRETCHING SPRING
Students calculate the length, width, height, perimeter, area, volume, surface area, angle measures or sums of angle measures of common geometric figures. They create an equation of a line of best fit from a set of ordered pairs or...

Solving Equations Using Two Operations
Need more detail in showing your class how to solve two-step equations and proportions? This lesson plan outlines the steps young mathematicians need to solve simple equations and check their results.
Curated OER
Recognizing Patterns
Middle schoolers explore the concept of patterns. In this patterns lesson, students use applets to manipulate tessellations. Middle schoolers predict the next number in a sequence by recognizing patterns.
Curated OER
Leap Into Exponential Functions
Studens identify the properties of exponents. In this algebra lesson, students grapha nd solve equaitons of exponential functions. They add, subtract, multiply and divide using exponents.
Curated OER
Leap Into Exponential Functions
Students use properties of exponents to solve equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students add, subtract, multiply and divide exponential functions. They graph and differentiate between exponential growth and decay.
