Learners determine the number of pennies needed to fill a room.  In this pennies lesson plan, students work in groups to determine the number of pennies needed to fill a room.  They compute the probability of the head of a pin...

Young scholars investigate systems of linear inequalities as they apply to an area of land. They practice graphing systems and determine if a point lies in the solution. 

Learners explore matrix multiplication and problem solve using matrix multiplication. They design a table that will display cost and profit for three cookie stores. 

In this logarithms worksheet, high schoolers simplify 14 logarithms.  Students re-write each set of logarithms as a single logarithm and solve for the unknown variable.

In this pre-calculus worksheet, students calculate the velocity of a linear graph by observing the slope of a line. There are 10 velocity questions.

In this calculus worksheet, students identify important rules and properties of the unit circle. They differentiate between polar and complex coordinates. There are 20 questions about the unit circle.

Students graph circles. In this graphing lesson plan students write equations for circles. Students solve equations for circles and graph the results.

Students investigate an accident and relate it to math. In this trigonometry lesson, students measure the accident scene, the friction produced, and the speed from the skid marks. They create a poster of their findings.

In this properties worksheet, students solve 28 short answer problems. Students identify the property illustrated by the example. Students identify the associative, commutative, distributive, etc properties.

Young mathematicians solve problems with polynomials. As they graph and analyze polynomial functions, learners define constant and finite, and determine the relationship between the constant set of differences and the slope of a linear...

Learners perform translation and transformation of functions. In this algebra lesson, students write the formula for the different transformation and graph given translation. They compare the change to the parent function.

Pupils find the difference between consecutive y-values on the calculator and write an equation that fits the data.  They continue finding the differences in consecutive y-values using lists on their calculator. Learners...

Students simplify rational expressions. In this algebra lesson, students solve rational equations using multiplication and division. They apply properties of exponents and negative exponents to solve the problems.

For this algebra worksheet, learners solve problems involving functions, systems and conics. They simplify radicals and graph parabolas identifying the focus and ellipse. There are 20 questions.

Have your class investigate Piecewise functions by matching a position versus time graph to the function that describe the walk.

Pupils investigate the connection between factors, zeros, and graphs of quadratic functions.  The lesson requires the TI-nspire handheld.

Pupils solve inequalities and systems of equations. In this algebra lesson, students use substitution and elimination as they solve algebraic systems. They use graphing and a table to support their solutions.

Students create a list of products with estimated prices. In this algebra lesson, students learn to write equations using variables. They match their created list with that of actual products and compare their prices,

Students factor quadratic equations. For this algebra lesson, students apply the binomial square theorem to solve quadratics. They complete the square and use the complex number system to solve for the roots.

Pupils graph linear and quadratic functions. In this algebra lesson, students create graph with specific coordinate points. They use the Ti to visualise and differentiate between the two functions.

Learners factor trinomials using patterns and their TI to graph their results and make predictions through this lesson. This is accomplished by solving quadratic equations through FOIL and algebra tiles.

In this algebra worksheet, students solve equations by graphing an ellipse, circle and hyperbola. They match equations to graphs and define each type of function. There are 20 questions total.

Students write the distance formula to solve equations for finding the distance between 2 points. In this distance formula lesson plan, students also write sentences explaining why their formulas would work.
