Here is a (great) lesson on using parentheses! The task requires the expression of ages using algebraic expressions, including the distributive property. Pupils use their expressions to determine the individual ages.

Pupils analyze a pattern of conference tables to determine the number of tables needed and the number of people that can be seated for a given size. Individuals develop general formulas for the two growing number patterns and...

Graph A goes with equation C, but table B. The short assessment task requires class members to match graphs with their corresponding tables, equations, and verbalized rules. Pupils then provide explanations on the process they used to...

See how division and subtraction go hand-in-hand. The fourth installment of a 36-part module has scholars investigate the relationship between subtraction and division. They learn using tape diagrams to see that they can use repeated...

Can your mathematicians come up with an easy way to convert miles to kilometers? Start by asking learners to write an algebraic expression for each of the descriptions given. Once they determine that they are both the same, ask...

Shuffle 'em up and deal! Learners practice operations with polynomials using cards they pass around the room. The activity works with pairs or individuals, so it offers great flexibility. This is the fifth installment in a series of 42...

Make the complicated look relatively simple. The video shows how multiplication of algebraic fractions is easier when they factor the numerators and denominators. Pupils see which factors will cancel, or divide out, easier when writing...

Square root and exponential powers are the focus of the assessment worksheets included in a math resource. Young mathematicians answer 10 questions, each with subset questions, involving solving a variety of exponential equations...

Repeated addition also works for multiplying integers. The lesson plan has the class play the integer game again, but has one card multiplied several times. Scholars write the multiplication expression and the addition expression that...

Subway orders are the same in every language, right? An inquiry-based lesson presents a Subway ordering board from an Asian country. Given an order, learners must determine the cost by comparing symbols of the order to the symbols on the...

Determine the better deal. Pupils write the equation for the cost of printing tickets from different printers. They compare the costs graphically and algebraicaly to determine which printer has the best deal based upon the quantity of...

High schoolers evaluate functions graphically and algebraically. After completing that step, they write a statement describing the input and output.
