Students examine graphs of three statistics and use basic math to compute their own. They evaluate the implications of manipulating data and whether statistics are appropriate for creating policy.

Students look at ratio, what it means for numbers or objects to be in a given ratio, and how ratios and fractions are related. They write and solve story problems which involve whole numbers, using addition, subtraction, multiplication,...

Students investigate work and power. In this energy lesson, students use the scientific method process to explore how much work and power it takes for a person to climb a stair case.

Twelfth graders solve first order differential equations using the separation of variables technique. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders explain the connection between math and engineering. They brainstorm what engineers do in real life.

Pupils watch the teacher demonstrate on an overhead projector how to graph various equations before the students try them on their own. They start with pencil and paper; once they grasp the concept they move on to punching in the...

Students calculate their carbon footprint. In this environmental technology lesson, students listen to a lecture on climate change. Students brainstorm solutions to reduce environmental impact based on travel options. Students calculate...

Students design a United States flag using reasoning. They describe their design to make it easy for it to be duplicated. They share their designs with the class.

Second graders develop number sense. In this number sense lesson, 2nd graders use multiple ways to represent numbers including written numerals, tally marks and manipulatives. Students correctly use place value to the thousands place.

Students compare prices then and now. They use the calculated rate of inflation to figure out the equivalent prices today for items sold at the fair and money earned in 1864. They calculate the actual value of a bowl of soup, a dinner,...
