Congruence and similarity apply to functions as well as polygons. Learners examine the effects of transformations on the shape of parabolas. They determine the transformation(s) that produce similar and congruent functions.

Use this complete and very detailed lesson plan to assess your students' understanding of two important behaviors of polynomials. The first is the relationship between the zeros of a polynomial function and the function's graph, and the...

Explore the power of mathematics through this two-week statistics unit. Pupils learn about several climate-related issues and complete surveys that communicate their perceptions. They graph both univariate and bivariate data and use...

In this physics worksheet, students answer 5 conceptual questions about the sensitive audio detector they built. They analyze the component of their circuit.

Students investigate quadratics through word problems. In this algebra lesson, students models the number of registered males in apprenticeship programs. They investigate the transformation of quadratic function on a coordinate plane.

In this math worksheet, students investigate different types of functions and coordinate systems. They review that when integrating a function over a region in the plane using polar coordinates, a “magical” factor of r appears in the...

Students study sound and ear function. In this sound functions lesson, students investigate soundwaves by completing various experiments. Students participate in a number of sound stations and complete the comparison chart with their...

Students examine traditional masks from Southwest Indian groups and create their own mask based on Internet research. They share their mask with the members of their class.

All aspects of the photosynthesis process, and the way that plants have adapted with specializations are detailed here.  The diagrams and info-graphics will be useful to your AP biology class. It could also be used as a review...

Context makes everything better! Groups use real data to create models and make predictions. Classmates compare an exponential model to a linear model, then consider the real-life implications. 

Group work and participation is used to perform a specified translation or reflection. In this geometrical translation lesson, small groups of pupils are each given a shape to plot on a coordinate grid. Each shape is then translated or...

Examine dilation with matrices with your class. Learners write a conjecture for how the scale factor determines the size of an image. They then use their conjecture to write a matrix multiplication problem for the illustrated...

First graders explore the different products and services provided by community helpers. In this community helpers lesson, learners participate in a role playing activity where the students transform into community helpers. They break...

Learners engage in six activities to lead them through the process of conducting a thorough analysis of data. Pupils work with calculating standard deviations and z-scores, finding the area under a normal curve, and sampling...

In the 19th activity of 22, learners determine if distance from a light source affects photosynthesis. Participants capture oxygen in straws and find that the amount of water the gas displaces is proportional to the rate of photosynthesis.

While a woman didn't invent the parasol, three women received patents for their improvements to the original design of umbrellas. In the first of a two-part series on inventive women, class members investigate the patent system to...

In this precalculus worksheet, students predict the graph of given functions and draw conclusions about each one. Students define a transformation, and determine the amplitude, period, phase shift and vertical shift of given problems. ...

In this graphing worksheet, students predict how a graph of given functions will work. Next, they check their work using a graphing calculator. Students use algebra to complete the graph of a square and determine transformations.

Students, through the creation of several natural dialogs, experiment with social parameters of the language. They work with how languages vary depending on the relationship between the speakers and the types of tasks being discussed....

In this electricity and magnetism worksheet, learners will answer 17 questions about how electrons flow, how electric motors work, and the function of a transformer.

Students investigate simple machines. In this simple machines lesson, students study how simple machines work. Students determine the function of various simple machines.

Students explore the concept of Mandelbrot sets and Julia sets. In this Mandelbrot and Julia set lesson, students use a function integrator applet to investigate two-variable function iterations. Students use Julia set and Mandelbrot set...

Students transfer information previously saved in a spreadsheet to Spyglass Transform. They visualize the data and explain what it means

Young scholars explore properties of triangles using angle bisectors, incenters, circles, midpoints, and altitudes. They use Geometer's Sketchpad in order to create triangles and their properties.
