Ninth graders identify numbers as rational or irrational. Using calculators estimation, and factoring methods, 9th graders compute the square root of numbers. They graph numbers in sequential order and round numbers integers to the...

Middle schoolers research prime and composite numbers. With a partner, students use graph paper to draw rectangles of various sizes. They list the dimensions of rectangles and discuss how the dimensions relate to the factors of each...

Students differentiate between perfect roots and rational roots. In this algebra lesson, students perform operation using roots. They add, subtract, multiply and divide rational expressions.

Eighth graders explore prime and composite numbers. Given division problems, they use color tiles to model solutions to division problems. Through activities and observation, 8th graders discover the meaning of prime and composite...

In this identify numbers worksheet, students identify prime, composite, perfect, deficient, and abundant numbers listed on a one-hundred board. This two-page worksheet contains one-hundred numbers on each page.

Middle schoolers multiply decimals and/or mixed numbers. They explore the effects of multiplying decimals and mixed numbers. They practice estimating answers when a number is multiplied by a decimal or mixed number.

In this math worksheet, learners solve 6 four square addition puzzles in which the numbers must add correctly in the rows and columns. The numbers on these math squares are from 1 to 20. There are 9 worksheets available.

In this finding the missing number in the magic square activity, students use calculators to add the rows and columns to find the missing numbers. Students solve three problems.

In this roots of real numbers worksheet, 11th graders solve and complete 12 different problems. First, they find the square root of a variable. Then, students simplify each root of a given real number.

In this cubed worksheet, students find the cube of a total of 50 numbers; answers are included on page 2 and highest number squared is 15.

Using the number attributes they have learned, math detectives uncover the mystery number in each of these logic problems. For the three problems they examine the clues and sets of numbers, using key vocabulary such as greater than,...

You can't evaluate an irrational root expression without a calculator—or can you? Scholars estimate the value of roots within an expression to approximate the value of the expression. Expressions include a mix of square roots and whole...

As you introduce graphs and coordinate pairs, use this guided activity to get scholars started. They reference an example before recording number pairs to identify the location of 12 letters on a grid. Next, learners examine shapes on a...

A transformational assessment determines how far pupils are advancing toward mastering complex and matrix standards. The assessment checks the learners' understanding of linear transformations, complex numbers and the complex plane,...

Young mathematicians join the ancient order of the Pythagoreans by completing an assessment task that asks them to find the area of tilted squares on dot paper. They then look at patterns in the squares to develop the...

Track down the Cyberchase episode that this lesson is associated with. Using a worksheet that is embedded in the plan, learners must find the next two numbers and shapes (a double pattern). Once these have been discovered, pupils try...

Explore skip counting by twos with young mathematicians as they complete these engaging activities. First, they color in squares to represent counting by twos in an even sequence and an odd sequence. Next, they connect dots (by twos) to...

Use the number wall to practice addition, evens and odds, missing addends, and doubling. Learners answer various questions based on six numbers, filling in squares with digits. They list the odd numbers and total them, then list the even...

Hop to it! Young counters practice skip counting by two using illustrations of animals hopping from place to place. Each image shows a number sequence and scholars draw in the path as they move from number to number. Encourage them to...

The class braids irrational numbers, Pythagoras, and perimeter together. The mini-assessment requires scholars to use irrational numbers and the Pythagorean Theorem to find perimeters of rugs. The rugs are rectangular, triangular,...

Take an irrational approach to numbers with a Smarter Balanced assessment that covers the introduction of irrational numbers. The nine items cover identifying irrational numbers, approximating them with rational numbers, and converting...

What do you do when factoring doesn't work? Learners complete the square when faced with quadratic expression that don't factor traditionally. They then use factoring by grouping to solve polynomial equations.

Have scholars show what they know with a 20-page assessment aligned to the California State Standards. The test covers concepts such as large and whole numbers, all four mathematical operations, fractions, decimals, geometric figures,...

In this math activity, students examine a series of numbers and determine the pattern. Students write the rule, then give the next numbers in the sequence. There are 15 problems to solve.
