Learners explore scatter plots. In this linear regression lesson, groups of pupils graph scatter plots and then find the line of best fit. They identify outliers and explain the correlation. Each group summarizes and shares their...

Take a very basic understanding of circuits and develop a strong understanding of the parts and function of a circuit. This activity is developed to be an independent exploration of circuits from the basics to series and parallel models....

Study Fibonacci sequences and see a related set of numbers. Learn and review Lucas numbers and use of quadratic equations to find a general term of a sequence of numbers that is generated by a recurrence relation similar to Fibonacci's.

Model real-life structures with mathematics. A project-based lesson presents a problem situation requiring classes to develop a function to model the St. Louis Arch and the Rainbow Bridge in Arizona. They create their models by...

Teenagers love to think about driving and buying their first car. The intent of this resource is to create an equation for the list price of a car and add the appropriate state tax. Once your teens understand the calculation, ask them to...

Good things happen when algebra and geometry get together! Continue the exploration of coordinate geometry in the third activity in the series. Pupils explore linear equations and describe the points of intersection with a given polygon...

Relate factors to zeros and x-intercepts. Scholars first graph quadratics in both standard and factored forms to see that they are the same. They go on to use the graphs to see the relationship between factors and x-intercepts.

In this college algebra worksheet, students view graphs of two functions. They are given a values chart. Students graph the result of adding the two functions.

Creating equations with one variable  to solve real-world-type problems is a key skill any algebra learner needs to master. Here the focus is on realizing that one can write the equation in different ways depending upon how one...
