Eighth graders participate in a lesson that is intended to review topics of Algebra.They investigate the concepts of percent and solve problems. Students also solve equations that involve percent of change.

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...

Young scholars read multiple step story problems and solve by adding and subtracting. They solve five problems.

Use a counting worksheet to teach learners how to add-on. They write equations and count on to find the sums. There are 5 problems to solve.

Obviously, four is the perfect number when you're playing Four Square. Scholars first use multiplication and division to solve a set of problems on the number of balls needed, the number of games, and the number of players required for a...

Explore logarithms and logarithmic regression. Young mathematicians first learn about inverse functions and about the logarithm function family. They take their newfound knowledge to use logarithmic functions to model situations and...

Introduce your class to the federal tax system through an algebraic lens. This resource asks pupils to examine the variable structure of the tax system based on income. Young accountants use equations, expressions, and inequalities to...

Use statistics to decide if NFL quarterbacks earn their salaries! Learners study correlation coefficients after using technology to calculate regression equations. Through the data, they learn the meaning of correlation and correlation...

Here is a code-breaker multiplication and division game which has learners find the missing letter in equations, then solve and use those letters to "break the code," which actually is the answer to a riddle. Make math fun with a...

Approach addition with young mathematicians in an engaging way through this penguin-inspired activity. In small groups, scholars think about times they have used addition in their real lives (there are some suggestions given), then watch...

Explore the difference between stochastic and deterministic modeling through programming. First have the class write algorithms for relatively simple tasks using pseudocode. Use the Python 2.7 program app to simulate Mendel's Pea Pod...

Investigate exponential growth and decay. A set of six activities has pupils collecting and researching data in a variety of situations involving exponential relationships. They model these situations with exponential functions and solve...

Students explore algebraic relationships using the coins in their "pocket." Interactive games that demonstrate the use of estimation in algebraic problem solving help them build a framework for understanding word problems in a way that...

Ninth graders practice recognizing similarities and differences found in the graphing of inequalities and equations. Once observatioons are made they solve some of their own applying prior knowledge.

Pupils play a game and collect data for their graph. In this algebra instructional activity, students solve quadratic equations and identify properties of their graph. They describe the pattern created by the graph and the game.

Students factor and solve quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students play a game as the collect and graph data. they identify properties of their parabola and make predictions.

In this secondary mathematics worksheet, learners participate in five activities such as code breaking, color coding, and one and even games.  The nine page worksheet contains eight activities.  Solutions are included. 

Students solve math problems using Roman numerals. In this roman numerals lesson, students use suggested websites to develop an understanding of Roman numerals and solve simple addition equations. Students create a chart of Roman...

Seventh graders explore the order of operations. They compare how the values of equations change when the order of operations is not followed. They discuss the order of operations. Independently, 7th graders solve equations. Students...
