Students use pattern blocks to create a figure that is described to them and establish a pattern based on the description of the geometric figure. In this pattern blocks lesson plan, students fill out shape and fraction worksheets.

A function is like a machine that has an input and an output. Challenge scholars to look at the eight given points and determine the two functions that would fit four of the points each — one is linear and the other non-linear. The...

Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.

With so many math standards to fit into a school year, it can be difficult keeping track of what you have and have not covered. This collection of Common Core checklists allows you to maintain a running record of when each...

Analyze the flight of a thrown ball. Learners determine the maximum height of a thrown ball and the time it takes to hit the ground given its initial speed. They continue to review different scenarios with different maximums or...

Give the class a mental work out with an assessment task in which young mathematicians compare several gym membership options. They use substitution to calculate the cost for given numbers of months.

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

A six-page evaluation covers material included in algebra, geometry, and algebra II. Applied word problems are mixed in with short answer questions. It also provides questions on mathematical reasoning.

A 13-page test with two 40-minute sections covers multiple years of math content. It incorporates applied problems and mathematical analysis.

Class members create a table of the number of chords that can be drawn given the number of points on a circle. Pupils analyze the data created, find a function to fit to it, and use the function to make further predictions.

Investigate the growth rates of alien animals. Pupils study fictional animals from another planet to determine how much they grow per year. The investigators plot the growth of their animals over a period of time and then compare...

Challenge high schoolers with a thorough math resource. The 20-page test incorporates questions from upper-level high school math in applied and higher order questions.

A 13-page test contains two 40-minute sections, which provide word problems and applied analysis to cover material from pre-algebra through geometry.

Math was easier before it got mixed up with the alphabet. A 10-page test covers material from multiple years of high school math. Scholars demonstrate knowledge across domains with a mixture of short answer and applied problems.

Many things in life take the shape of a polynomial curve. Learners design a polynomial function to model a riverbed. Using different strategies, they find the flow rate through the river.

Design and build a rover ... then eat it? This activity has groups of two design and build Mars rovers. The teams determine what instruments they want to include with their rover and plan a budget. They calculate the cost of the body of...

Pupils demonstrate an understanding of price-per-unit mathematics. In this computation instructional activity, learners accurately figure the unit price of grocery items. They create a chart and record the item, the price, the size and...

There is a 100 percent chance this resource will help pupils connect percents to financial literacy. Young mathematicians use their knowledge of percents to find markups and markdowns in financial situations in the seventh segment in a...

Eighth graders evaluate statistical equations. They examine data from archaeologists at Jamestown, complete statistical equations using the sets of data, and graph the results.

Students find the vertex, directrix, and focus of a parabola and graph parabolic functions. They solve problems involving parabolas after a demonstration lesson by the teacher.

Students study the radial solution of hydrogen activity. They illustrate eigenvalue problems in applied mathematics. Students explore Schrodinger's equation and particle wave duality.

Students explore the use of matrices and graphing calculators to solve a complex linear programming problem. They test their solutions to determine the best division of land use for the city.

Students explore how to graph a linear inequality. They determine if a point is in the solution set. Students solve linear inquality application problems. They graph linear equations, and solve linear equations for a given variable.

Students investigate and solve linear equations using slopes. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines using the slope and y intercept. They also find the slope by rewriting their equation in to slope-intercept form from standard form.
