What do you get when you cross a circle and a line? One, two, or maybe no solutions! Teach learners to find solutions of quadratic and linear systems. Connect the visual representation of the graph to the abstract algebraic methods. 

Eleventh graders define various types of linear systems and three types of solutions. In this linear system and echelon forms lesson, 11th graders solve a linear system using elementary row operations. Students also describe the set of...

Expand on learners' understanding of quadratic-linear systems. Building on the graphic understanding developed in the previous lesson, pupils learn algebraic methods of solving the systems. 

Do you need to graph lines to see the point? A thorough lesson plan provides comprehensive instruction focused on solving systems of equations by graphing. Resources include guided practice worksheet, skill practice worksheet,...

High schoolers focus on finding solutions to situations found in everyday life. Students participate in activities to solve a system of equations, identify the system as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent or...

Students solve systems of equations. In this algebra lesson, students identify the number of solutions to a system of equation. They solve using linear combination and graphing.

Learners observe a demonstration of linear momentum. In this linear momentum lesson, students observe a series of demonstrations of linear momentum and qualitative observations.

How high did the ball go? Engineering teams build a working pneumatic system that launches a ball into the air. The teams vary the amount of pressure and determine the accompanying height of the ball. An extension of building a device to...

Explore properties of addition as they relate to matrices. Using graphical representations of vector matrices, scholars test the commutative and associative properties of addition. They determine if the properties are consistent for...

Students explore the use of matrices and graphing calculators to solve a complex linear programming problem. They test their solutions to determine the best division of land use for the city.

Learners identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.

Young scholars calculate the distance and velocity over time. For this algebra lesson, students graph a linear function to represent the distance vers time travel. They interpret their graphs and draw conclusion.

Students solve word problems using systems of equation. In this algebra instructional activity, students use computer and graphing to graph and analyze their solution. They solve system involving inequalities.

Ready, aim, fire! Launch to a new level of understanding as scholars build and test their own catapults. Learners explore lever design and how adjusting the fulcrum changes the outcome. 

Students investigate the concept of writing adventure stories. They follow the model of a "choose your own adventure story". Students practice the skill of making choices to get to a desired outcome. The application is when they follow...

Second graders explore liters and milliliters. They estimate volume and accurately measure the volume. Students plan a party and measure volume using liters and milliliters as part of the planning process.

Students study the topography of the ocean floor and the geological processes of how it is formed. They summarize what bathymetry, describe how islands are formed and illustrate a bathymetric model of the sea floor.
