Integer Arithmetic
Young scholars solve integer-based problems. They add and subtract integers as well find missing integers. They represent a scenario involving positive and negative integers and solve it.
Curated OER
Exploring Centers of Triangles
Students explore properties of triangles using angle bisectors, incenters, circles, midpoints, and altitudes. They use Geometer's Sketchpad in order to create triangles and their properties.
Curated OER
Exploring the Landscape
Young scholars determine the monotonicity and concavity properties of a function, then apply the First Derivative Test and draw conclusions about the first and second derivatives from these properties.
