Learners investigate the average value of a function given different interval values. In this calculus lesson, students explore word problems and apply their knowledge of average value to find the answer. They apply previous knowledge to...

Students evaluate and define limits using substitution. In this calculus lesson, students apply the use of Integrals to explore Newton's law of Cooling. They solve rate and temperature problems using Integrals.

Students add and subtract integers. In this algebra lesson, students add, subtract, multiply and divide integers. They apply the properties of numbers as they solve equations.

Students identify the pattern in a problem. In this geometry lesson, students make predictions, collect and analyze data. They apply the idea of scales and measurements to the real world.

Arcsine will be better understood and applied through prediction the number of petals on a rose curve using polar equations. High schoolers relate rose curve to siusoidal functions using the Ti navigator.

Young scholars untie knots and relate it to math. In this algebra lesson, students explore the history of knot tying. The tie their own knots and untie the knots using ropes.

Eighth graders find ways to use math everyday. In this algebra lesson, 8th graders model equation and problem solving as they multiply and divide numbers. They split up in to groups as they perform hands on operations. 

Students explore graphing. In this graphing lesson, students sort Skittles candies and use the color groups to create a bar graph. Rubrics and extension activities are provided.

Students investigate the usage of parallel and perpendicular shapes in the real world. In this geometry lesson plan, students investigate shapes for properties that are related to the real world. They relate all the properties of shape...

Young scholars calculate the distance using the distance formula. In this geometry lesson, students identify the distance a taxi cab travels. They relate distance to functions and relate it to the real world.

Students solve problems using the Fibonacci Patterns. In this geometry lesson, students trackthe growing rate of a rabbit population. They collect the data and graph their results. They make predictions based on their results.

Students convert between fractions, decimals and percents. In this algebra instructional activity, students reduce and rewrite the same quantity three different ways. They relate percents, decimals and fractions to the real world.

Students solve problems using smaller steps. In this geometry lesson, students find the diagonals of rectangles and the area of the annulus between two circles. They are given the starting point and the radius.

Students use Geometers SketchPad to find the area and perimeter of several shapes. In this geometry activity, students determine area of rectangles and progress through irregular polygons. None of the referenced worksheets are included...

Students create a circle using the taxi-cab metric. In this geometry lesson, students identify the properties of circles. They identify the idea of geometric shapes and how they come about.
