Design an efficient cereal box. Scholars use set volume criteria to design a cereal box by applying their knowledge of surface area to determine the cost to create the box. They then determine whether their designs will fit on...

Quickly get to the decimal point. The last assessment in a nine-part series requires scholars to work with decimals. Pupils compare the race times of several athletes and calculate how much they have improved over time. During the second...

How much can a cat eat? The five-question fraction assessment asks pupils to determine the fractional portion of a food box eaten by cats. Learners show their proficiency in adding and subtracting fractions using several scenarios...

Scale up your lessons with a performance task. Young data analysts work through an assessment task on scaled bar graphs. They answer questions about a given scaled bar graph on favorite colors, analyze a bar graph to see if it matches...

Find an easier way to double it. Using the price of an item and the Consumer Price Index, learners determine how long it will be for the price to double. Scholars calculate the length of time it would take for the price to double using a...

Examine some properties that don't require a general contractor. Scholars first complete a mental math activity that uses the properties of real numbers. A separate activity formalizes these properties.

Science equipment can be handy for math class, too. Scholars learn to solve one- and two-step linear equations by using the concept of a balance. They solve real-world problems in a variety of contexts by writing and solving linear...

An activity around linear equations, slope, and intercept is here for you. In it, young mathematicians engage in a whole-class activity while the teacher uses the overhead projector graphing calculator. This activity also focuses on...

How many times can you find the midpoint of a line segment given two points? Well, more times than anyone probably needs to with these ten different worksheets, each with 24 problems. All the points used in the problems are positive and...

Slow and steady wins the race? In the assessment task, scholars calculate the rates at which different snails travel in order to find the fastest snail. Hopefully, your class will move much more quickly in finishing the task!

In this simplifying distribution instructional activity, students solve problems with one variable using the distributive property. They place their answers in the answer box provided on the internet. Students are able to view...

For this FOIL method worksheet, students with the "FOIL" method to solve equations with one to two variables. They may enter their answer on the internet worksheet, and view step-by-step hints to solve the problems. Twenty binomial...

For this math worksheet, students use a list of mathematical properties in order to justify their evaluations. Students name multiplicative inverses and properties illustrated in 13 numbers and statements.

In this math worksheet, learners examine problems that are stated in exponential form. Then they use multiplication to simply into number form.

For this measurement worksheet, students use a measuring tape to measure suggested items located in the classroom, such a table or desk. Students measure to the nearest 1/16th of an inch. They calculate the surface area of each item. ...

In this function worksheet, students determine domains and ranges in eight multiple choice problems.  The solutions are provided.

In this completing the square worksheet, students solve one quadratic equation by completing the square.  The solution is provided.

Not the most attractive worksheet, but useful nonetheless. A chart is displayed for mathematicians to fill in the power, base number, exponent, the repeated multiplication problem, and the total value. They complete this activity for...

In this distributive laws activity, students solve and complete 8 different types of problems. First, they expand each equation by removing the brackets. Then, students remove the brackets and collect like terms in each. In addition,...

Statistically, practicing this packet completely helps young mathematicians do well on the test. The packet is adaptable to many grade levels as it includes basic probability and goes up to data analysis with mean, median, and...

Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.

Young mathematicians extend their knowledge of rational numbers on a number line to graph inequalities by first using number cards to compare rational numbers. They finish by using similar reasoning to graph inequalities on a number line.

Functions require an input in order to get an output, which explains why the answer always has at least two parts. After only three multi-part questions, the teacher can analyze pupils' strengths and weaknesses when it comes to...

Scholars crave practical application. Let them use the different models of a quadratic function to plan the size and shape of a school playground. They convert between the different forms and maximize area.
