Students factor a difference of two squares.  In this factoring a difference of two squares lesson, students use manipulates cut from a piece of paper to illustrate the difference of two squares.  Students illustrate the...

In this math worksheet, students graph inequalities on a coordinate grid. The eight problems have a coefficient of one for the y variable. Three problems have a negative value for y. The final four problems are horizontal or vertical lines.

In this solving equations worksheet, students solve and complete 16 different types of problems. First, they simplify using the inverse of addition or subtraction. Then, students simplify further by using the inverse of multiplication or...

In this algebra instructional activity, students solve inequalities using addition, subtractions and multiplication. They graph the inequalities with shading. There are 2 questions.

In this Algebra worksheet, students find the Greatest Common Factor of two terms involving constants and variables with exponents. Students may self correct their answers by selecting the link at the end of the worksheet.

In this experimental design instructional activity, learners identify the title, hypothesis, independent and dependent variables , the constants and the control for their experiment. They use a scoring guide to asses their progress.

This is a nice worksheet on solving one variable and compound inequalities. Learners solve inequalities and graph the solution on a number line.  The two page worksheet contains explanation and sixteen practice problems. 

Young mathematicians apply problem-solving skills to equations that have more than one variable. They will work through the process to problem solve and discover the solution.

Students solve linear equations and identify the unknown. In this algebra lesson, students define a variable and use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve. They change the equation depending on the value of the...

In this linear equation worksheet, students solve basic linear equations containing positive and negative integers. Students show their algebra steps, as they solve for "x." The majority of the ten equations contain two terms, and a few...

Test your class with this online review. They determine the probability of a given situation, solve inequalities, systems of equations, and write numbers in scientific notation.  This two-page worksheet contains approximately 60...

Students solve equations containing variables on both side of the equal sign. In this algebra lesson plan, students combine like terms using opposite signs to get them on one side of the equal sign. They model the equations using bar...

It's raining (systems of) cats and dogs! The fifth unit in a nine-part course presents systems of equations and inequalities within the context of pets. Scholars use systems of inequalities to represent constraints within situations...

What does English have to do with math? Teach your class the "grammar" of a number sentence. Sentences with correct grammar can be false! Understanding of a number sentence leads to a comparison with equations.

What are these bar graphs depicting? Novice data analyzers examine two basic bar graphs and answer three comprehension questions about each. The first graph shows tickets sold per date and the next is distances run per member of a cross...

It seems the post office has run out of stamps! Learners build all the values of postage available if the post office only sells five- and seven-cent stamps. The task provides an opportunity to create an expression in two variables and...

Build confidence by using multiple approaches to problem solving! This resource uses a visual and algebraic approach to solving application problems. A discussion is included about efficient approaches to different problems.

A new, improved version of the game Battleship? Learners graph linear inequalities on the coordinate plane, then participate in a game where they have to guess coordinate points based on the solution to a system of linear...

First graders are asked to find the missing numbers in subtraction and addition equations. Each missing number is represented with a box and appears as an addend, subtrahend, sum, or difference.

Explore the concept of systems of equations in two variables and use matrices to solve them. Young mathematicians enter coefficients and constants into a matrix and then solve using row reduction. Instructions on how to use the shortcut...

Four simple equations, each with two variables, try to get at the important question of reasoning about equations. The problem isn't to solve the equations, but to understand the nature of their solutions. These equations address the...
