Scholars investigate the concept of adding positive and negative numbers. They practice adding using the number line for scaffolding. This can be done as a game for younger learners, but may also be helpful for engaging the older pupils.

Students investigate the concept of integers and how they should occur in the realm of irrational numbers. The lesson includes the use of positive and negative integers. The lesson is a good foundation in order to move into calculating...

Estimating the value of numbers is much harder than it sounds! Scholars compare and order the value of numbers presented in different forms including fractions, decimals, roots, integers, and pi. This builds on the previous lessons in...

This activity has a little of everything. Compare fractions, determine if numbers are less than, greater than, or equal to. Then practice lining up the decimals to add and subtract decimal numbers. Then multiply decimals remembering to...

In this comparing numbers activity, students write a greater than sign, less than sign, or equal sign to compare the pictures or number examples in the 11 examples.

Talk about delicious math! Pupils solve problems involving rational numbers and analyze real-life problems to find solutions in a pre-algebra class. They discuss the sections of a Hershey's bar in terms of fractions and decimals before...

Sixth and seventh graders compare and order integers. After locating integers in a newspaper, they describe examples of negative and positive integers. They draw a thermometer and locate positive and negative integers on the scale. In...

Learners solve four short answer problems. They determine the number of each color of candy or paper clip in a bag, and calculate the fractional, decimal, and percentage representation of the color compared to the total number of items.

Through a variety of physical and theoretical situations, learners are led through the development of some of the deepest concepts in high school mathematics. Complex numbers, the fundamental theorem of algebra and rational exponents...

In this comparison worksheet, students compare positive and negative numbers, identify the opposite of a number, and evaluate absolute value of given numbers. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

This dual vector lesson has the class watch a video about a person's swim of the English Channel. The class then uses a computer program to analyze dual vectors of wind's effect on a flight path of a plane as compared to the water...

Show your future bakers how to choose the right baking pan by calculating the volume of a pan. The resource compares two pans, one with decimal edge lengths and is too small for the recipe and one that may work. Your number crunchers are...

Math pupils, by viewing a video, discover the history of pi and some of the applications of its uses in the world today. They conduct an experiment by measuring the diameter and circumference of various circular objects to calculate...

Students find the number of possible arrangements of several objects by using the Basic Counting Principle. In this math lesson, students divide into groups and determine the number of possible sandwiches which can be made given certain...

Students investigate the concept of using fractions to solve problems involving rational numbers. They order real numbers on the number line with the classification of fractions. Also students solve problems using the four operations...

Students work together to build models of prairie plants. Using the model, they estimate the height and then measure them using metric and standard units. They write a fraction to represent their part of the whole set and compare and...

Review basic algebraic rules of addition of integers. Then have the class define a variable and explore methods of solving equations with one variable. They observe solving expressions using inverse operations and simplifying solutions....

Seventh graders compare and contrast positive and negative numbers. They create a T-Chart and list real word examples of positive an negative numbers. After observing an number line and a football field, 7th graders describe the...

Seventh graders review rational numbers. After listening to a story, 7th graders define the distributive and identity properties. They observe examples of each property and play a race game to practice identifying the properties. ...
