Harness the power of algebra to solve problems. Young mathematicians learn to work out multi-step problems by applying algebraic techniques, such as solving equations and proportions. They use tape diagrams to model the problem to finish...

Learners demonstrate their ability to operate with rational numbers through a five-question assessment that includes questions ranging from simple operations with integers to solving two-step equations with rational coefficients.

If you think Dr. Seuss has no place in a math classroom, then take a look at this resource. Based on the classic children's book Green Eggs and Ham, this sequence of activities engages children learning to model real-world contexts...

You are what you eat, or so they say! After surveying family and friends on a week of eating habits, learners analyze the data for patterns. They compare different variables such as fats and cost, fats and calories, or fats and LDLs. 

Try to find an estimate when the exact answer is not clear. Using the General Certificate of Secondary Education Math review resource, pupils learn how to find an estimate to a cubic equation. Class members use the trial-and-improvement...

Explore how to graph lines from different pieces of information. Scholars learn to graph linear functions when given an equation, given two points that satisfy the function, and when given the initial value and rate of change. They solve...
