There's no parallel to a great resource. Scholars take part in three lessons in which they investigate parallel lines in real-world situations. They search for and take pictures of parallel lines in and around the school, develop artwork...

Use what you know about parallel and perpendicular lines to write equations! Learners take an equation of a line and write an equation of a line that is parallel or perpendicular using slope criteria. They then solve problems to...

Jump back into expository writing and analysis at the start of a new school year! Start with a review of an authors' stylistic choices in diction, syntax, treatment of subject matter, and figurative language. Writers choose a text to...

Just between us, this is a pretty cool lesson! Given two functions with the same slope, learners write three new functions whose outputs are all between the given functions. The question is open-ended, allowing pupils to explore the...

Students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations using the slope intercept form. They classify lines based on their slopes.

This one activity requires young geometers to pull together information they are currently learning with things they have learned previously. Here they rely on understanding something about parallel lines, alternative interior angles,...

Students explore linear equation suing real life scenarios. In this algebra lesson, students find the slope and intercept of a line. They create table of values to plot their graph and draw conclusions.

Students combine sentences to create compound sentences. They write about creating their own soda, then make their own soda, comparing and contrasting it with a national brand. They write a paragraph containing compound sentences.

Students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. In this geometry instructional activity, students make conjectures and apply it to solve real life situations. They collect data and make predictions based on the data.

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

Parallel lines and transversals work together to create unique angle pairs. An inquiry-based activity allows scholars to explore these relationships and give them each a name. Flashcards allow them to study the new vocabulary.

A phantom of neuroscience may leave pupils perplexed as they engage in an experimental lesson that recreates a phantom limb scenario. After experiencing the phenomenon, they choose a scientific question to explore further.

Students graph lines in a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students graph lines on a coordinate plane, and identify the slope. They classify the lines as parallel or perpendicular and write an equation of a given line.

Students explore electricity by conducting a series of experiments. In this physics lesson, students discover the relationship between current, voltage and resistance. They calculate voltage and power in a given system.

Lead the class in a Greek history lesson with a geometric twist. Pupils relate a short video about geometric properties to modern-day methods of solving for unknown angles. They discuss parallel line theorems and complete...

How do you build a polygon from an inequality? An engaging lesson plan challenges pupils to do just that. Building from the previous lesson plan in this series, learners write systems of inequalities to model rectangles, triangles,...

Students observe two chelae. They write three differences they observe in their notebooks. Students suggest a hypothesis which would explain these differences. They dissect the chela. Students analyze the lobster claw as a mechanical lever.

This amazingly extensive unit covers a wealth of geometric ground, ranging from constructions to angle properties, triangle theorems, rigid transformations, and fundamentals of formal proofs.  Each of the almost-forty lessons...

This lesson is all about systems of equations and their graphs. Algebra learners create and solve systems of equation using tables and graphing. They identify the point of intersection of a system of equation, and discover what the...

Provide your emerging mathematicians with the tools to learn as they incorporate auxiliary lines to solve unknown angle proofs in this continuing segment. They decipher information from a diagram to uncover the missing pieces and...

Tenth graders explore mathematics by participating in hands-on daily activities. Learners identify a list of different shapes and classify them by shape, size, sides and vertices. They utilize tangrams and geometric pieces to gain...

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...

Students begin the lesson with a review of the elements of poetry. Individually, they read a variety of poems and literature one white and one black author focusing on decay, sterility and alienation. They identify these images within...

Twelfth graders work together to write appeals for their side in a famous case. Using a format, they write a legal brief and incorporate the legal, scientific and environmental information needed to make a strong case. They share their...
