Limits
Learners analyze data algebraically. In this calculus lesson, students determine the limit based on the 3 properties of limits. They identify the domain and range of each function.
NASA
Launch Altitude Tracker
Using PVC pipe and aquarium tubing, build an altitude tracker. Pupils then use the altitude tracker, along with a tangent table, to calculate the altitude of a launched rocket using the included data collection sheet.

Measuring Viscosity
Groups use a marble to determine the viscosity of household fluids. The procedure calls for pupils to measure the amount of time it takes a marble to fall a specified distance in the fluids. Using unit conversions and algebra, the teams...
Noyce Foundation
Percent Cards
Explore different representations of numbers. Scholars convert between fractions, decimals, and percents, and then use these conversions to plot the values on a horizontal number line.

Analyzing Numeric and Geometric Patterns of Paper Pool
Students use concrete and pictorial representation of geometric patterns to extend patterns. In this geometric patterns lesson plan, students identify patterns and extend them.
Curated OER
Iterating Linear Functions
Students use a spreadsheet to investigate data. In this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They explain properties of a linear equation both algebraically and orally.

Charging Up, Charging Down: Exponential Models
Students collect and analyze voltage data. For this math lesson, students investigate exponential functions using the TI and a Voltage Probe. They graph their data and analyze it using a table.
Curated OER
Looking Normal
Learners identify the shape of a function. In this statistics lesson, students plot the data collected. They analyze their data for positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit.
Curated OER
Proportionality in Tables, Graphs, and Equations
Learners create different methods to analyze their data. In this algebra instructional activity, students differentiate between proportion and non-proportional graph. They use the TI-Navigator to create the graphs and move them around to...
Curated OER
Round and Round and Round We Go!
Students investigate motion using a CBL. For this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They define and identify amplitude and period of conic graphs.
