From start to finish this skills practice resource provides a way for individuals to explore the standard form equation of a line. Begin with a warm-up, work through the problems, and then discover the relationship between the...

The ups and downs of plant vascular tissue are described by your beginning botanists as they complete this learning exercise. Xylem and phloem are defined and identified on actual color photographs. Functions of the different types of...

Not all linear functions are linear transformations, only those that go through the origin. The third lesson plan in the 32-part unit proves that linear transformations are of the form f(x) = ax. The lesson plan takes another look at...

Work on using context clues in your social studies class. Pupils read a brief selection about the terrain in Senegal and define each of the underlined words in the space provided. They also list the context clues that helped them...

Looking for a resource to introduce homeschoolers and other out-of-class learners to the elements of poetry? Check out this packet that defines and illustrates important poetry terms.

Hand out this worksheet and lead your class on a scavenger hunt. Pupils look for examples of shape, form, balance, pattern, perspective, space, and depth. They draw and write about the examples they've found. A great resource to add...

They appear to be different, yet they are the same line. Part 24 out of 33 lessons provides a theorem about the relationships of coefficients of equivalent linear equations. Pupils use the theorem to determine whether two equations are...

Support your Latin language learners with a collection of vocabulary words paired with definitions. Kind of like a small dictionary, this reference material contains about 600 Latin words with English definitions.

In this linear equations worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 7 different problems that include a number of linear equations. First, they determine the slope given the points and then write an equation in slope-intercept form. Then,...

Complex numbers were first represented on the complex plane, now they are being represented using sine and cosine. Introduce the class to the polar form of a complex number with the 13th part of a 32-part series that defines the...

Your young graphers will collaboratively play their way to a better understanding of the solution set produced by the combining of inequalities. Cooperation and communication are emphasized by the teacher asking questions to guide the...

Prove that an equation in slope-intercept form names only one line. At the beginning, the teacher leads the class through a proof that there is only one line passing through a given point with a given slope using contradiction. The 19th...

The resource is a good introduction to what makes a proportional relationship between two lines. Discuss the similarities of both lines and the possibility of intersection. Use this opportunity to list other acceptable forms of each...

In this real-world example, algebra learners start to get a sense of how to represent the relationship between two variables in different ways. They start by looking at a partial table of values that define a linear relationship. They...

Quadratics need no introduction, but here is one anyway. Learners watch a video that introduces them to quadratics. The pupils learn what a quadratic is, its key features, and how to sketch a graph of the parabola it defines. Then, they...

An inverse relationship exists between exponents and logarithms, allowing mathematicians to easily convert one to the other. Scholars apply a brief definition of logarithms with a few practice problems. Then, they discover the...
