Students research propulsion, graph data, and interpret the results.

Learners are familiar with United States currency-dollar and cents. They are asked to compare it with currency of another country. Students explore currencies of various countries using the Internet, video, and hands-on activities. ...

Students discover patterns in linear equations by playing a dice game to collect data. They graph the data and analyze the patterns of the lines created by the data. The class then compares the individual graphs to evaluate the position...

Students analyze posture and pantomime in an analysis of total body movement. For this body movement lesson, students read a chart of movements and the mood or attitude they convey. Students complete several space and observation...

Second graders use a number line to practice subtraction.  In this subtraction lesson, 2nd graders use a number line to count backwards.  Students participate in mad math activities and solve problems.

Fourth graders listen to the problem to the class and think about how they solve the problem and to discuss it with their friends using number sentences in their written record of the solution.

Students identify the pattern changes that could occur in a series using pictures with dots. They use the patterns on the worksheets to have a context to describe pattern in words. Students look to find the linear, quadratic, or...

Students complete a variety of bear-related activities. They sort and graph teddy bears, distinguish between real and non-real bears and research bear life cycles and habitats.

Students calculate the threshold value for the number of susceptible people needed to create an epidemic. They examine a real life flu epidemic and use the SIR model to solve the problems. Students discover they can use mathematics to...

Students make a rocket out of paper. They follow the given instructions and test to see if it will fly. They write about the experiment and are given the opportunity to change their varibles to make their rocket work.

Students solve problems involving exponential, logarithmic, and scientific notations. Using calculators, students explore investment problems. They use a formula and logarithms to determine the years to earn a particular income, figure...

Students develop definition for parabola, explain relationship between properties of the graph of a parabola and its equation, explain how the equation of a parabola can be written in different forms, and solve problems that relate the...

Students develop a definition of parabola and explain the relationship between the properties of the graph of a parabola and its equation. They explain how the equation of a parabola can be written in different forms and solve problems...

Fourth graders using the idea of "how many more squirts" fill a container to develop multiplicative thinking. They also investigate the idea of conservation of volume when working with oddly shaped containers. They attempt to use...

Students practice graphing a linear equation and a parabolic equation. They work cooperatively to select numbers, including fractions, which they will put into ordered pairs. Students explain their process to the class, discussing what...

Practice evaluating expressions in two variables by plugging in values for the variables. These problems include some fractions and decimals. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch...

Practice evaluating expressions in two variables by plugging in values for the variables. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Use Glencoe's Math Course 2 randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your knowledge of evaluating expressions with variables. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of the...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Evaluate multi-variable expressions by using a given value for the variable.

This lesson provides students with opportunities to practice writing equivalent equations and expressions for finding perimeter and patterns on a calendar. It also gives extension and remediation ideas as well as related instructional...

Practice words problems writing expressions.

In this exercise, students practice writing expressions with variables. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

In this exercise, students practice writing expressions with variables and parentheses. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

Given some information about several unknown variables, rewrite and simplify the structure of an expression containing those variables. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a...
