Let's hope class participants don't get motion sickness. In the lesson, class members first solve motion problems using tables and graphs. They then use algebraic techniques to solve motion problems.

You've got to pump it up! Using the equations for projectile motion and Bernoulli's Principle, class members calculate the water pressure in a water gun. The pupils collect data on the number of pumps and distance traveled in order...

Witness the power of exponential growth with an activity that investigates two different savings plans. Class members create tables of values to see how and when a savings plan increasing exponentially exceeds one increasing linearly.

An informative lesson contains a brief explanation of how the sum of the angles of a triangle is a line. The lesson continues with determining the missing angle in a triangle, or solving for a variable. Using the sum of the...

Ask your algebra learners to write an equation that has unit constraints. This commentary talks about the constraints, but does not show them in the equation. It is important that your mathematicians understand that the units apply to...

Fifth graders utilize input/output tables to help them solve algebraic equations. They incorporate patterns, number sequences and relations to represent and analyze mathematical problems and number relationships using algebraic symbols.

In this algebra worksheet, students determine whether 6 equations are true or false based on the value of the variable given. They then find the solution sets for 6 inequalities based on replacement sets for x and y. Finally, students...

Eighth graders demonstrate the mathematical components of a scientific problem as well as illustrate how real world problems can be solved using math. They demonstrate math skills such as rate calculation, graphing, and linear equations.

In this algebra using proportions worksheet, 10th graders solve 14 various types of problems by applying algebra methods to geometry. First, they solve each of 8 proportions using cross products. Then, students use the triangle shown and...

In this limits worksheet, students evaluate five limits using limit definitions. They solve differential equations by isolating one variable. Students determine the dimensions of a rectangle inscribed below the graph of a curve.

Students analyze problem solving techniques for equations with variables by playing a game called "Smackdown". They place variable cards on a grid and use the area model to calculate an answer after spinning a game piece to determine the...

Students use physical models and graphs in order to solve problems that have their origin in the real world that require algebraic thinking. The words are changed into equations and inequalities in order to be solved. This requires...

Ninth graders investigate solving word problems.  In this Algebra I lesson plan, 9th graders explore the four step process for solving word problems:  Step 1-make a table of values, Step 2-identify the constant, Step 3-indetify...

In this writing equations worksheet, students solve 6 math word problems that require them to write and solve equations using the information provided.

In this complete the square worksheet, students complete the square for equations with variables. Students complete the square for 10 problems.

In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders solve 14 systems of equations using substitution or elimination and 14 word problems.

In this population worksheet, students read word problems relating to population growth. They write the problem as a differential equation, create models and graphs of the solution. This three-page worksheet contains 10 multi-step...

in this polynomial expressions worksheet, students solve polynomials through factorization or the FOIL method. They read sentences and translate them into a polynomial. This two-page worksheet contains 48 multi-step worksheets.

In this algebra worksheet, students rewrite word problems using algebraic expressions. They use formulas to solve problems. There are 22 questions with an answer key.

Think critically — and linearly by applying linear equations to solve real-world problems. Young mathematicians write equations to model the profit on popcorn and cotton candy at a carnival and solve problems using these equations.

When told to describe a line, do your pupils list its color, length, and which side is high or low? Use a worksheet that engages scholars to properly label line graphs. It then requests two applied reasoning answers.

Here is a (great) lesson on using parentheses! The task requires the expression of ages using algebraic expressions, including the distributive property. Pupils use their expressions to determine the individual ages.

Keep your hands on the wheel—at all times! Scholars learn why pilots use a flight computer through a high-flying demonstration. Making calculations for speed, distance, or time is automatic if you know how to use a flight computer. 

If a can has a volume of twelve ounces, how tall it should be? If you can work with volume formulas, it's is an easy measurement to find. After finding the volume of figures in the previous lesson of the series, learners now...
