Students participate in a instructional activity that covers the concepts of solving equations and inequalities. To master the concept they must demonstrate visually and verbally how both sides of an equation must be balanced. They...

Middle schoolers brainstorm pizza toppings and determine the number of possible ways to order a pizza. In this algebra lesson, students analyze and investigate geometric patterns as they relate to the concept of a variable. Middle...

Maximizing resources is essential to productivity. Class members complete an activity to show how math can help in the process. Using a piece of construction paper, learners construct a box with the maximum volume. Ultimately, they...

Students investigate and solve linear equations using slopes. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines using the slope and y intercept. They also find the slope by rewriting their equation in to slope-intercept form from standard form.

Students investigate planning an activity and getting it done on time. In this algebra lesson, students define vocabulary words related quadratic equations, including the vertex and intervals. They figure a good way to color graphs...

Students pretend to borrow $1000.00 on a credit card. They pretend to make the minimum payments for a year. When they're done, they make a pie chart showing how much of their payments reduced their debt, and how much was interest.

Young scholars explore number sense by solving consumer math problems. In this pattern identification lesson, students analyze a list of numerical and geometric patterns while predicting the future outcome. Young scholars utilize...
