Expand on learners' understanding of quadratic-linear systems. Building on the graphic understanding developed in the previous lesson, pupils learn algebraic methods of solving the systems. 

Forgive me, I regress. Building upon previous modeling activities, the class examines models using the regression function on a graphing calculator. They use the modeling process to interpret the context and to make predictions...

There's only one way to multiply, right? Not when it comes to polynomials. Reach each individual by incorporating various representations to multiplying polynomials. This lesson plan approaches multiplying polynomials from all angles....

Conjugating in the math classroom — and we're not talking verbs! The seventh lesson in a series of 32 introduces the class to the building blocks of complex number division. During the instruction, the class learns to find the...

In the 16th instructional activity in the series of 32 the class uses the concept of complex multiplication to build a transformation in order to reflect across a given line in the complex plane. The instructional activity breaks the...

What does it take to build a stable arch? Pupils apply vectors and physics as they examine arched bridges and their structural integrity. They use vectors to represent the forces acting on the stone sections and make conclusions based on...

Build confidence in proofs by proving a known property. Pupils explore two approaches to proving base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent: transformations and SAS. They then apply their understanding of the proof to more complex...

Build confidence by using multiple approaches to problem solving! This resource uses a visual and algebraic approach to solving application problems. A discussion is included about efficient approaches to different problems.

As a continuation of a previous lesson plan, 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....

In the first installment of a 21-part module, scholars build on previous understandings of probability to develop the multiplication rule for independent and dependent events. They use the rule to solve contextual problems.

Building on knowledge from the previous lesson, the second lesson in this unit teaches scholars to identify and interpret rate of change and initial value of a linear function in context. They investigate how slope expresses the...

Build an understanding of the powers of 10. Pupils investigate the results of raising 10 to positive and negative powers. They relate this understanding to the magnitude these powers represent in this seventh lesson of 15.

Explore linear and nonlinear models to help your class build their function skills. In a continuation of the previous lesson, learners continue to analyze and sketch functions that model real-world situations. They progress from linear...

How well does your garden grow? Model the growth of dahlias with nonlinear functions. In the lesson, scholars build on their understanding of mathematical models with nonlinear models. They look at dahlias growing in compost and...

Investigate the relationship between irrational roots and a number line with a resource that asks learners to put together a number line using radical intervals rather than integers. A great progression, they build on their understanding...

Teach cube roots by building on an understanding of square roots. The third installment of a 25-part series asks learners to solve simple quadratic and cubic equations using roots. Scholars compare square roots and cube roots throughout...

Not all relationships with a pattern are proportional. Show your class why in the fourth installment of a 22-part series. The lesson plan builds upon previous parts and has pupils analyze tables to determine whether they represent a...

Build on your classes' understanding of irrational numbers by comparing their values. The 13th instructional activity in the 25-part module has individuals estimate values of both perfect and non-perfect roots. They finish by graphing...
