Here is really nice set of resources on scientific notation. Eighth and ninth graders explore the concept of multiplying and dividing in scientific notation. In this multiplying and dividing numbers in scientific notation...

Get moving to a better understanding of graphs of derivatives. Using motion sensors, scholars vary their velocities to create graphs of the first derivative of a function. The activity challenges groups to first create a script of the...

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...

Force your way to a better understanding of vectors! Pairs of young scholars work together to apply the right amount of force to move an object along a straight line vector. They use calculations to determine the magnitude and direction...

Students collect data from an experiment they perform. In this data lesson, students use multiple representations to solve practical problems; describe advantages and disadvantages of the use of each representation. Then, they evaluate...

Did you know that leaky faucets waste $10 million worth of water? Conservationists perform an experiment and draw best-fit lines to explore how the US Geological Society determined this value.

Students solve systems of equation through graphing. In this algebra lesson, students solve linear equations and analyze the result to figure out if there is one solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions. They graph their lines...

Students investigate and perform reflections and symmetry. In this geometry lesson, students compare and contrast the relationship between reflections and symmetries.

Students graph polynomial equations using different methods. In this algebra lesson, students identify the different ways the x and y values relate in a graph. They solve for x by finding the zero's of the polynomials.

Students explore the different properties of conics. For this algebra lesson, students calculate the midpoint of a line, the distances between two points as they get ready to find the focus and directrix in eclipse and other conics. They...

Students classify, add, subtract, and factor polynomials. For this polynomials lesson, students classify polynomials by creating their own system. During a discussion, the class decides on a common system. They add and subtract...

Over four sessions, learners survey the production and use of polymers and petroleum products. First, they participate in a kinesthetic activity to demonstrate how polymers act, and review a list of common products made from...

Students solve for the different ratio and proportion of a problem. In this geometry lesson, students show their knowledge of how to solve proportional relationships. They convert between percent, decimals and fractions.

Students compare and order integers on an umber line. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between positive and negative numbers. They plot point in the correct order on a number line.

Seventh graders collect data and make predictions. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders work in tiers collecting data and plotting it. They make inferences and predictions about their collected data.

Ninth graders investigate and make conjectures about volume. In this geometry lesson plan, 9th graders analyze data and predict the outcome. They calculate volume using different tiers.

Eighth graders design and build a gingerbread house. In this technology lesson plan, 8th graders research the important components of a house. They evaluate the strength of their design and suggest modifications when necessary.

Fifth graders accurately measure the distance to eight points on an uneven surface by conducting a simulation of sattelite altimetry. They create a two-dimensional model of the simulated ocean surface by graphing data from the Radar Run...
