In this science activity, students complete the exercises that focus on the concept of heat and the use of a thermometer. The sheet also requires prior knowledge of using a telephone.

Students are introduced to mixed expressions and complex fractions. They work through several problems with the instructor and then complete a worksheet.

Pupils add integers using a number line. In this algebra lesson, students add one and two digit integers. They compare zero pairs and the addition of integers.

Students explore the concept of addition as used in the subject of Algebra while reviewing the different methods using a number line. The lesson plan includes examples for students to use for scaffolding for group work or whole class...

Students explore the different perspectives within the text. For this language arts lesson, students read A Raisin in the Sun and discuss what they would do if they were in the same position as the Younger family.

Decription and examples of how to solve absolute value equations.

Using this tutorial, you'll learn how to solve absolute value equations. View step-by-step solutions and video explanations of example problems, and solve practice questions at the end.

The students can use a StudyCards stack to learn how to solve absolute value equations and inequalities. Later, they will learn how to use the calculator graphing capabilities to solve the same type of problems in a new way.

A discussion of how to solve absolute value problems. The lesson goes into detail about the graphs of absolute value problems and how the graph is related to the numeric solution. Includes problems along with interactive widgets.

The absolute value of a number a is written as |a| and represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line. An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression. The equation |x|= a has two solutions...
