Fifth graders describe patterns as relations and functions. In this patterning lesson plan, 5th graders analyze and continue patterns. Students understand how patterns relate to relations and functions.

In this relations and functions worksheet, students identify the constant of variation. They write equations that represent a given relationship. This one-page worksheet contains two problems.

There are so many different types of tools we use in the kitchen, everyday. Help your special needs learner discover how to recognize, identify, and use various kitchen utensils and appliances. Using picture cards and drill prompting,...

In this intermediate algebra instructional activity, students solve 20 multiple choice problems. Problems range from finding the domain and range of a function to identifying the graph of an inverse of a function.

Young scholars examine functions and function notation. They use computer activities to discover how to graph functions, and conduct a vertical line test. Students describe spatial relationships using coordinate geometry.

What makes a function a function? Learn the criteria for a relation defined as a function both numerically and graphically. Once young mathematicians define a function, they use function notation to evaluate it. 

Sometimes being different is an advantage. An engaging activity has scholars match cards with quadratic functions in various forms. Along the way, they learn about how each form highlights key features of quadratic functions.

Create trigonometric functions from circles. The first lesson of the module begins by finding coordinates along a circular path created by a Ferris Wheel. As the lessons progress, pupils graph trigonometric functions and relate them to...

The plot thickens to get a functional understanding. After a short review of plotting points on the coordinate plane, class members learn the difference between functions and relations in the second lesson in a series of nine. They...

Worried that your lesson plan about functional groups is dysfunctional? Liven things up with interactive puzzles! Curious chemists arrange functional groups based on name, formula, suffix, and an example. The challenge begins when the...

After identifying which of the given coordinate points fall on the graph of a line and which fall on the graph of a parabola, pupils write equations for each function.

Learn how to represent functions in multiple ways. Learners analyze functions as equations, graphs, and verbal descriptions. The analysis includes intercepts, behavior, domain, and range. The module of seven lessons makes up the third...

What kind of functions have holes in their graphs? Here, the teacher guides the class on how to use the simplified function of a rational function to aid in the graphing of the original rational function. T-tables are used in order...

Don't think this lesson is for Mom and Dad; parent functions are all for your high schoolers. Flip through a presentation with a focus slide on each type of graph and its characteristics. Some examples are included but the...

What if a coordinate plane becomes a slope-intercept plane? What does the graph of a linear function look like? Learners explore these questions by graphing the y-intercept of a linear equation as a function of its slope. The result is a...

Connect cubic graphs to equations. After connecting solutions of a cubic equation to zeros of its related cubic function, pupils investigate a translation of the cubic function.

Connect functions to geometry. In the ninth installment of a 12-part module, young mathematicians create functions by investigating situations in geometry. They look at both area and volume of figures to complete a well-rounded lesson.

Use a function to operate on two variables. Pupils look at operating with complex numbers as a function of two variables. The interactive squares the input and adds a constant to it. Learners visualize the resulting output and its...

Relevance is key! The resource applies quadratic modeling by incorporating application of physics and business. Pupils work through scenarios of projectile motion and revenue/profit relationships. By using the key features of the graph,...

Building on knowledge from the previous lesson plan, the second lesson plan in this unit teaches scholars to identify and interpret rate of change and initial value of a linear function in context. They investigate how slope expresses...

From a circle to a cycle! The final lesson of a five-part series challenges learners to use points from the unit circle to plot a repeating pattern. The repeating patterns become the graphs of the trigonometric functions. Scholars...

Use a nine-page evaluation to cover material from algebra, geometry, and algebra II. It incorporates short answer, applied reasoning, and conversion problems. 

Young scholars write and solve linear equations in one variable based on descriptions of the operations that are applied to the unknown variable in an algebra machine. They then create their own problems for classmates to solve.

Take a look at some molecules that are so cool, they're polar! Scholars examine the effect polarity has on a molecule's shape and charge. Change up the view and choose between an opaque or transparent molecular surface, complete with...
