Students engage in a lesson that is concerned with the rules of exponents. They practice solving problems that use exponents in a variety of contexts. Students are shown how to use the rules in numerical sequences and after translation...

Students participate in a lesson combining language arts with mathematics. First, they write a paragraph explaining what it means to multiply two numbers. Then students practice using exponents in different problems.

Students participate in a lesson that covers the concepts of solving equations and inequalities. To master the concept they must demonstrate visually and verbally how both sides of an equation must be balanced. They construct a balanced...

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,...

Learners explore the plants that grow in Glacier National Park. In this plant biology lesson, students invite a guest speaker to speak about plants that grow in Glacier National Park, as well as the scientific names for the plants....

Fly into an engineering lesson sure to get your scholars' interest off the ground. Young pupils create hoop gliders out of straws and paper hoops. Adjusting the size and number of the hoops lets them investigate the effect on flight...

Use manipulatives (film cans and balance scales) to visualize and solve equivalent equations with your math class. After a lecture/demo, they utilize handouts and solve various equations using the methods learned.

In this algebra lesson plan, students define algebraic terms and rewrite them using math symbols. There are 10 problems drawing correlations to geometry as well as algebra.

In this algebra worksheet, students define vocabulary related to circles, and other conics. They graph hyperbolas and eclipse. There are 20 questions.

Twelfth graders rewrite word problems using equations. In this calculus lesson plan, 12th graders solve real world situation using the derivative. They solve problems on rate, and distance.

Students explore perimeter and area of rectangles. In this rectangular lesson, students use tiles to discover the formulas for perimeter and area. Students solve for area.

Learners use a game to establish the context of solving problems in a systematic and mathematical fashion. They also solve various types of equations to find reasonable solutions.

Students discover the underlying scientific principles in common, daily events.

Practice problems with equivalent expressions: negative numbers and distribution.

Practice figuring out which expressions are equivalent by applying your knowledge of negative numbers and the distributive property. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video...

Factor complex polynomials (i.e. polynomials of various degrees and or with two variables) using special product factorization methods. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a...

This tasks gives a verbal description for computing the perimeter of a rectangle and asks the students to find an expression for this perimeter. They then have to use the expression to evaluate the perimeter for specific values of the...
