Seeing functions in nature is a beautiful part of mathematics by analyzing the motion of a dolphin over time. Then take a look at the value of a stock and maximize the profit of a new toy. Explore the application of quadratics by...

Pupils attempt to solve the Wireless Hotspot Problem and learn why it is considered a computationally hard problem in the ninth lesson of the series on 12. They also learn about one-way functions and how the Wireless Hotspot Problem is...

Inquiry-based learning and investigations form the basis of a deep understanding of quadratic functions in a very thorough unit plan.  Learners develop recursive and closed methods for representing real-life situations,...

Learning about end behavior means it's close to the end of the unit. The 16th of 18 lessons in Unit 1 - Limits and Continuity has scholars watch a video to learn how limits at infinity can be used to determine horizontal asymptotes and...

Students recognize the situations in which the use of the past continuous would be beneficial in writing. They focus on the use of the past continuous as a descriptive tense when something important occurred.

In this function worksheet, students determine the limits of functions, sketch graphs, and use the Intermediate-Value Theorem for functions. This two-page worksheet contains twenty-two problems.

In this math worksheet, students give examples of functions that will satisfy given conditions. Students tell the tabulations for a given function. Students use the definition of a derivative to compute the inverse of a function. they...

Model function operations using a function machine. An interactive lesson has learners determine the patterns of a double function machine. They use the patterns to write functions and make connections between the inputs and outputs.

When is the trigonometric value of a negative angle the same as the positive angle? Pupils compare the values of trigonometric functions for different angles and their negatives. The interactive resource provides a visual display to make...

Two for one—create an invertible and non-invertible function from the same data. The task presents a function table with missing outputs for the class to use to create two functions. One of the functions should have an inverse while the...

Using this resource, scholars develop graphs that model situations by showing change over time. They answer 15 questions based on information from charts that show growth in weight. They extend the concepts to an assessment section of...

Assign a tagger, and everyone else as runners. The tagger will tag people at random. Persons tagged must go to the other side of the gym court to perform a skill. Once they are done, they can go back in the game.

Continue the study of transformations with an examination of horizontal stretches, shrinks, and reflections. Individuals use the same process used in parts one and two of this series to examine horizontal changes. The resource also...

Revisit the relationship between logarithms and exponentials. Learners review the notion of logarithms as the way to solve exponential equations in the 21st segment in a Pre-calculus series of 23. Pupils use the knowledge to prove that...

Curing cancer or finding the fountain of youth—the answer may be understanding the structure and function of telomeres. The relationship of telomeres to both aging and cancer have triggered aggressive research. A thorough lesson...

Fifth graders analyze patterns and begin looking at function tables. This is a pertinent preparation for graphing patterns. In fact, consider giving your class a piece of graph paper and then teach them how!

Paper folding, flu spreading in a school, bacteria growth, and continuously compounded interest all provide excellent models to study exponential functions. This is a comprehensive resource that looks at many different aspects of...

Kids consider how the body functions and moves, how each structure has a specific movement and purpose. They apply that idea as they construct a sculptural piece that moves. For inspiration they look to the work of Alexander Calder,...

In this math worksheet, students read the definition of continuity found in Calculus. Then they graph the functions while defining the points of continuity.

In this narrative tenses activity, students practice past simple tense, past continuous tense, past perfect simple tense, and past perfect continuous tenses as they complete 4 paragraph starters by following instructions.

In this present simple and present continuous verbs worksheet, students write 4 sentences about their lives using present simple verbs. Students also write 4 sentences about their lives using present continuous verbs.

In this calculus overview worksheet, students: find the equation of a tangent line, curve sketch, and find limits.  Students should have covered continuity as well.

For this present simple and present continuous verbs worksheet, students examine 21 sentences and fill in the blanks in each by putting the verb in parentheses into the present simple or present continuous verb tense.

In this present perfect and present continuous verbs worksheet, students complete 8 sentences using the correct tense of the verbs in parentheses and write a descriptive email using the words listed in the word bank.
