Do your pupils truly understand inverse operations, or is their understanding a little backward? Scholars learn the meaning of an equation in the second lesson of a four-part Algebra series. A series of activities begins with an...

Your learners combine their knowledge of real and imaginary numbers and matrices in an activity containing thirty lessons, two assessments (mid-module and end module), and their corresponding rubrics. Centered on complex numbers and...

A matrix is just a fancy way of making a table. Young scholars explore operations with matrices with the first lessons in the final module of a 10-unit Algebra II series. After adding, subtracting, and multiplying matrices, pupils use...

How can matrices help us solve linear systems? Learners explore this question as they apply their understanding of transformation matrices to linear systems. They discover the inverse matrix and use it to solve the matrix equation...

Explore methods for solving linear systems with your classes and introduce learners to using matrices as a viable method. Scholars are able to recognize situations where matrices are the efficient method of solving. Application...

Examine the usefulness of matrices when solving linear systems of higher dimensions. The lesson asks learners to write and solve systems of linear equations in four and five variables. Using matrices, pupils solve the systems and apply...

Students explore multi-step equations. In this pre-algebra/algebra I lesson, students use the TI-nspire computer algebra system to check the steps they used to solve multi-step equations and equations with variables on both sides.

Young scholars solve one step linear equations. For this algebra lesson, students manipulate their variables and numbers to answer each problem. They make sure the equations stay balanced at all times.

Ninth graders solve multi-step equations.  In this Algebra I lesson, watch a video on solving equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign.  Students visit an Internet site to solve simple equations through the use...

Learners solve systems of equations. In this precalculus lesson,students solve linear equations using matrices. They use the Gaussian elimination method to identify the missing variables and simplify the linear equations.

What a great classroom resource! The intention of this lesson is to show that real-world math can and should be applied to the community in which your high schoolers reside. The class relates properties of equations to solving for...

Middle schoolers explore measurements of rectangles. In this measurement comparison lesson, students discover the length, width, perimeter, and area of two different rectangles. Middle schoolers record their measurements on a chart to...

Students construct and solve linear equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students solve equations and graph lines using the slope. They identify the different parts of an equation including the leading coefficient.

Students draw conclusions and make conjectures given a specific scenario. In this geometry lesson, students model real life scenarios using properties of triangles. They model number facts and explain why the outcome is what it is.

Students explore two-step linear equations.  In this middle school Pre-algebra lesson, students create and solve equations that describe how a person got to an end postion on a ruler by jumping.  After physically creating the...
