Students calculate the costs for lodging and meals for a virtual field trip. They calculate the number of nights lodging needed for road and city travel and the number of meals needed, the costs for each, and input the data using...

High schoolers perform dilation on various geometric shapes. They also discuss pros and cons of dilation and employ the Frayer Model to study the vocabulary words in this section.

Students explore the concept of prime factorization. In this prime factorization lesson, students participate in an activity where they find the prime factorization and greatest common factor of a number derived from their name. Students...

Students use problem solving skills to create various models of tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes. They classify the cubes into various groupings and identify them as mirror images, regular arrangements, and irregular arrangements....

Ninth graders find the height of every day objects using techniques learned through postulates that allow triangles in a problem to be similar. They calculate the length of a missing side and solve proportions.

Ninth graders add and subtract polynomials.  In this Algebra I lesson plan, 9th graders work practice problems as they view a PowerPoint presentation of the lesson plan.  Both the horizontal and vertical methods of addition and...

Fourth graders examine the Triangle Inequality Theorem by investigating possible lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Young scholars establish a strategy for adding simple fractions. They convert improper fractions to mixed numbers and interpret drawings and storyboards.

Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.

Students are introduced to polyhedrons through using straw models to explore geometric solids and constructing Christmas tree ornaments using Epsom salt crystals. Students will view interactive videos and investigate and retrieve...

Learners practice problem-solving with this addition activity. They plan a party for their class and another class by determining how many cupcakes are needed. Students draw a picture of how they determined the number of cupcakes.

Students calculate the area and perimeter of a basketball court. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similarity and congruence of geometric objects. They test conjectures and use it to solve problems.

Students investigate how to draw and classify two and three dimensional figures (squares, triangles, rectangles.)

Students recognize and name two-dimensional and three-dimensional geometric figures. One group of students will extend the study of polygons to quadrilaterals while another group of students will extend the study of polygons to...

Third graders participate in a game in order to review geometric concepts.

Students engage in a instructional activity that is about relational functions with the application of methods to real life problem situations. They use the examples found in the instructional activity for the purpose of practice during...

Students explore Literal Equations. In this literal equations lesson, students use the Internet to connect to links and solve linear equations. Students investigate, analyze and record their findings on various activity worksheets.

Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

As an experiment is demonstrated for them, students write down their observations and brainstorm questions that can help them understand what they saw. After watching the experiment again—which demonstrates a soda can collapsing due to...

Learners participate in a theme study while teaching primary students basic skills according to Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals in Reading, Math, and Writing. The instructional activity is concerned primarily with the concept of...

Students explore the concept of adding and subtracting integers. In this integer lesson, students use strips of paper (various sizes) to add and subtract integers. Students visualize the process of adding and subtracting integers.

Pupils construct models of various tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes that are possible, classify n-cubes into different groupings, and draw these figures on isometric dot paper giving true perspective to what they visualize.

Students examine the health risks of radon in the home. They calculate the odds for each risk and use different forms of measurement. They work together to complete the activity and worksheet.

Learners explore the concept of factoring trinomials.  In this factoring trinomials lesson, students use the Mack Method to factor trinomials.  Learners watch a video on how to factor a trinomial with a coefficient of 1 with...
