The 12th segment in a 25-segment series looks at the division of integers and how the signs of the dividend and divisor affect the sign of the quotient. Pupils start with multiplication and division facts of whole numbers and create the...

Sixth graders interpret linear and nonlinear graphs. They create graphs based on a problem set. Next, they represent quantitive relationships on a graph and write a story related to graphing.

In this terms in a sequence activity, students solve and complete 32 various types of problems. First, they simplify each of the equations listed. Then, students find the number of arrangements found using the information given. They...

See calculus to the end. The eBook is the last of a three-volume series covering college-level calculus topics. Scholars begin with parametric equations and polar coordinates before moving to vectors, finally ending with multi-variable...

Students identify the nth rule for each sequence. In this algebra lesson, students finish the pattern or sequence and find the missing term. They relate patterns and sequences to the real world.

Seventh graders investigate a series of triangles, looking for patterns and generalizing what they have found. They analyze the pattern data and organize it into a table and graph. Students identify the relationship and discover the rule...

Young scholars investigate a numerical pattern and look for evidence of mathematical patterns in nature. They solve puzzles and work with a partner to predict sequential numbers in a series.

In this number pattern worksheet, students study the pile of pumpkins. Students add the numbers on the pumpkins to determine the pattern and fill in the missing numbers on 8 of the pumpkins shown.

In this algebra worksheet, 9th graders are given the x value of an equation and they must figure out the y value. This assignment is meant for alone time and not group work. There is an answer key.

Tenth graders study graphing exponential functions. In this transformations instructional activity, 10th graders apply inquiry to determine how changes to a parent function affect its graph. Students analyze transformed graphs and...

Using the TI-89 calculator, students explore the statistical, graphical and symbolic capabilities of the TI-89.  Students investigate topics such as solving systems of equations, finding inverse functions, summations, parametrics...

Eighth graders play a game to solve problems. In this exponents and scientific notations lesson, 8th graders play a game in small groups to move colored disks from location A to location C. Students identify recursive patterns to solve...

First graders use manipulatives to complete and extend patterns. In this patterns instructional activity, 1st graders complete a pattern with a missing element, extend a pattern, and sort objects by characteristics.

Fifth graders investigate the use of patterns in a data set. The set is disolayed visually using cubes. This helps struggling students to see the quantity in order to make comparisons more effectively.

Students complete T charts and manipulate numbers using graphs and charts. In this math graphs and charts lesson plan, students review the concepts of pattern and function. Students then complete practice pages where they manipulate...

Sixth graders construct a rule about the number of sides found in a pattern of hexagons. In this mathematical problem solving lesson, 6th graders observe different hexagon patterns and create a rule about the relationship between the...

In this math patterns puzzle learning exercise, students practice their problem solving skills as they complete this math patterns puzzle.

Students recognize patterns and sequences in numbers. In this geometry lesson plan, students create rules to define the sequences and patterns they obsere. They translate coded messages as they dicuss navigational terms.

Second graders design and construct homes for the three pigs. Each of the homes is made and filled with patterns that we explore. They continue a sequential pattern and describe a rule for this.

Patch up any misconceptions about writing functions. Scholars undertake a performance task that has them first examine a pattern in patchwork cushions. They represent the patterns in triangular and rectangular blocks using a table and as...

Mathematics involves a study of patterns. The exploratory lesson has learners consider the addition pattern in different sets of numbers. Each set has a different pattern that pupils describe mathematically. The patterns involve...

Pupils explore the many representations of linear functions by completing a matching activity to connect the multiple representations of a function. They then reinforce the connection as individuals create the different representations...

Shuffle the resource into your instructional activity repertoire. Scholars use randomly-generated iPod Shuffle playlists to develop ideas about randomness. They use a new set of playlists to confirm their ideas, and then decide whether...

Give your class a concrete example of exponential growth and decay using this hands-on activity. These Algebra II lessons allow for the exploration of exponential growth and decay models, as well as the discovery of the patterns of...
