Permutations Teacher Resources

Students compare and contrast a human body to a cow. Using a diagram, they label and identify the functions of the cow's numerous parts. In groups, they create a Venn Diagram to compare the various types of cows with one another. They...

Students, using manipulatives, determine how many different ways there are to arrange 3 and 4 objects. They organize and record their arrangements. Students investigate the pattern generated by 3 and 4 objects, they predict how many ways...

Students work together to complete a project on probability. In groups, they solve probability equations based on the formula and scenerio given to them in a PowerPoint presentation. To end the lesson plan, they take a quiz on each...

In this computing determinants instructional activity, students explore methods of computing determinants. They complete determinant problems by using the co-factor method, the "big formula" and the use of product of the pivots. This...

In this orthogonal matrices worksheet, students explore characteristics of an orthogonal matrix. They use Gram-Schmidt to convert linearly independent vectors to orthonormal vectors. This three-page worksheet contains approximately six...

In this calculus lesson, students review counting using the principles of Enumeration. They use random selections to count and convert word problems and count. There are 21 problems with an answer key.

Students become familiar with the characteristic form and sound of the blues, then learn about the history and evolution of the blues in relationship to the African-American experience. Students examine the structure and language of...

Pupils investigate the A string and the musical note related to it. They locate the note on the staff, the finger number, and identify the note by name. They perform different musical pieces while playing different fingering patterns.

This MathWorld page gives information about permutations. Its real merit lies in the fact that there are examples for a clear understanding at various parts of the site and many links to learn detailed information about various aspects...
