In this systems of equations instructional activity, 11th graders solve and complete 10 different sets of problems that include three variables. First, they simplify each equation and put them in standard form. Then, students choose to...

Young geometers get some solid skills practice in evaluating slopes. Beginning with the basics of slope through two points and progressing through properties of parallel and perpendicular lines, the building of skills is gradual and...

In this algebra worksheet, pupils factor out common terms from 20 polynomials. On several they will group two pairs of terms and factor to find the common elements.

Combat hate online by bringing it into the light. Begin by giving learners a quiz, then lead a discussion based on the issues the quiz brought up. As a class, develop strategies to confront online hate. Assign different venues to groups...

Students become interactive participants in introductory and practice activities involving positive and negative numbers. After watching a video, students play games together which help them use positive and negative numbers effectively.

Students complete activities to relate numbers to each other. In this number connection lesson plan, students count number sets, count forward and backward, and complete other number recognition activities to learn how numbers are related.

Fifth graders put each number they receive in the appropriate order in a number line or a number circle. In this numbers lesson plan, 5th graders develop number sense and manipulate the numbers in order.

In this algebra worksheet, students solve linear equations using the slope and y-intercept. They solve word problems using algebra. There are 9 questions with an answer key.

Learners solve and complete 22 various types of problems. First, they find the gradients of the lines and plot the given points. Then, they complete the table of values for each equation and use the table to draw the graph. 

Scholars work in pairs to drill and practice alphabet sounds, keeping track of their progress on a chart. Working one at a time, each partner flips letter cards, saying the sound and letter. If they get it correct, it goes in the YES...

You know 4 + 4 + 4 = 3(4), but what about x + x + x? Pairs work together to develop equivalent expressions relating multiplication and addition in the third lesson of a 36-part series. They extend their knowledge of multiplication as...

Develop young mathematicians' understanding of place value with this hands-on math activity. Working in pairs, learners take turns building two-digit numbers by rolling two ten-sided dice. Base ten blocks are then used to model the...

Teach collaboration and communication skills in addition to graphing logarithmic functions. Scholars in different groups graph different logarithmic functions by hand using provided coordinate points. These graphs provide the basis for...

What do you need to prove triangles are similar? Learners answer this question through a construction exploration. Once they establish the criteria, they use the congruence and proportionality properties of similar objects to find...

If a linear function and a quadratic function enter a boxing match, which one would win? Learners first review how to find key features of linear and quadratic functions. Next, they compare key features of pairs of functions.

Locating a point on a grid is an important skill to master; use this practice sheet to give schlars some clear and useful experience. On a large, simple grid they use a coordinate system to find specific squares and color them a given...

Scholars practice blending syllables by playing a matching game. Pairs flip two cards and blend syllables; if they create a word, the player writes it on a worksheet; if not, the cards return to the collection.

Learners honor mathematicians who have contributed important discoveries throughout history by researching and creating a report about a famous mathematician and their contributions to the history of mathematics. Pairs of learners...

Does the symmetry and transitive property apply to similarity? The 10th segment in a series of 16 presents the class with a group of explorations. The explorations have pairs show that similarity is both symmetrical and transitive....

In this third of a twelve-part series, the focus moves from using matrices to solving systems of equations with substitution and elimination, including more than two dimensions and variables in equations, and analyzing statistical data....

Just what does it take to show two rhombuses are similar? The assessment task asks pupils to develop an argument to show that given quadrilaterals are rhombuses. Class members also use their knowledge of similar triangles to show two...

Create an understanding of solving problems that require more than one equation. The lesson introduces the concept of systems of linear equations by using a familiar situation of constant rate problems. Pupils compare the graphs of...

As a continuation of a previous lesson, this activity builds on the concept of calculating the terms of a sequence. Pupils are challenged to determine the smallest starting term to reach a set number by a set number of rounds. Notation...
