Create a human fraction to learn about division of exponents. Scholars develop the rule for division of exponents by being part of a human fraction to explore and justify the rule. They also consider zero exponents and negative exponents.

The sky's the limit of what you create when combining functions! The module begins with a review of transformations of parent functions and then moves to combining different function types using addition, subtraction, and...

Bring balance to your lesson plans with an activity that asks individuals to solve one-step linear equations with inverse operations. Balance scales help learners understand the concept of isolating the variable.

Sew up your unit on operations with decimals using this assessment task. Young mathematicians use given rules to determine the amount of fabric they need to sew a pair of pants. They must also fill in a partially complete bill for...

How do you know if a number is divisible? Instructors first prove the divisibility rules for three and four and then class members use this modeling to prove given divisibility rules for eight and nine either individually or in...

Students use color-cued fraction strips and a color-cued numberline to develop basic fraction concepts and correct sequencing. They complete a worksheet using equivalent fractions to solve the problems.

Fourth graders complete a coloring activity and consider where like fractions are actually used in real-life situations. They problem solve in groups using fractions with common denominators.

Seventh graders create a graph of their Christmas gifts. They develop categories, compute fractional and decimal parts for each category, identify the number of degrees to represent each fractional part, and create a circle graph to...

Middle schoolers investigate water usage at school and at home. They use graphs and tables to evaluate water usage. Students describe possible water conservation measures. They use graphs and tables to relate data as part of a written...

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.

Help learners study polynomials. They will review how to multiply polynomials either by using the FOIL method if they are multiplying a binomial by another binomial, or by using the distributive property.

Young scholars find a recipe for pancakes on the web then figure out how to half the recipe then figure how to make 3/4 of the pancakes.

Students create an illustration of how to solve math problems. They use appropriate resources for solving the problems. Students have to demonstrate how drawing diagrams and using pictures can help them by using KidPix. On Slide One,...

Students compute minimum velocity, using square roots.

Students pretend they are about to buy their first new car. They must do all the calculations necessary to estimate the cost of purchasing the car. They see that the math they learn in school really does have real-life applications.

Third graders create a box big enough to hold a million dollars. This is a project fun to do near the winter holidays with inexpensive gifts included in the boxes. This hands-on lesson plan very effectively demonstrates the concept of...

Eighth graders practice calculating problems using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They estimate solutions to algebraic problems. They also graph their solutions.

Students create charts and graphs using a spreadsheet. They chart the number of each gift given day by day from the song, "The Twelve Days of Christmas." They create a bar graph and a circle graph from their data on the spreadsheet.

Students explore and examine the increases and/or decreases for water user groups: irrigation, municipal, manufacturing, steam electric power generation cooling, livestock, and mining. They utilize percentage changes during their...

In this Algebra II worksheet, 11th graders solve equations involving radical equations.  The worksheet provides an explanation and worked examples.  The two page worksheet contains three problems.  Solutions are not...

In this math worksheet, students read about and learn the properties of addition. Students study the commutative, associative, identity and inverse properties. There are no problems on this page for students to solve.

Students are introduced to mixed expressions and complex fractions. They work through several problems with the instructor and then complete a worksheet.

Practice adding and subtracting rational numbers of different forms.

Get independent practice adding and subtracting rational numbers. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.
