high schoolers construct the graph of the Witch of Agnesi, and investigate both its asymptotes and inflection points. They construct the graph of the Witch of Agnesi and conjecture the asymptotes and inflection points of the function. ...

Students derive a formula for the interior degrees in any convex polygon. In this geometric figure lesson, students determine the shapes of various polygons and the number of triangles formed. They use this information to derive the...

Eleventh graders analyze words that derive meaning from Greek, Roman, and Norse myths. In this myth vocabulary lesson plan, 11th graders work in learning groups as visual learners, kinesthetic learners, and artistic learners to identify...

Young scholars convert quadratic functions from standard form to vertex form. In this algebra instructional activity, students solve polynomials using synthetic and long division. They derive and apply the remainder theorem and factor...

Students solve problems involving graphs. In this calculus lesson, students relate harmonic motion to velocity. They discuss the derivative and the effect on the functions created.

Pupils perform operation with secant and tangent lines. In this calculus lesson, students find the derivative and relate it to the slope of a line. They differentiate between secant and tangent as they intersect a circle, using Cabri.

Second graders receive a general overview about how maps are made and used, how specific information can be derived from them, and how a student can gain personal information about their surroundings from examining them.

Eighth graders use concrete and graphic models to derive formulas for finding perimeter, area, surface area, circumference, and volume of two- and three-dimensional shapes. This lesson is a fun way to practice measurement and circle and...

Students compute the slope of a line that passes through two points and explain how the slope formula is derived. They determine properties associated with positive, negative, undefined, and no slope.

Students analyze different foreign policies to derive their own idea of what constitutes appropriate intervention by a government. They complete a detailed proposal for their own Declaration of Human Rights.

Students apply what they have learned about throwaway products "and the valuable natural resources from which they're derived" by thinking about where garbage goes after they throw it out. They also examine their own ideas and habits...

Twelfth graders build a model of the following figures with the base from column I and the cross-section from column II. Draw the base with labeled axes on the graph paper and construct the figure on top of the base with the play dough...

Students compute areas of squares, rectangles, and so on and summarize the formulas for computing areas and explain how the formulas are derived and understand the reasoning behind them.

Young scholars reflect functions about the X-axis, Y-axis, and origin. They derive equations for reflected functions using the website www.explorelearning.com.

Students read and comprehend materials written for French native speakers; use cognates and contextual visual clues to derive meaning from texts that contain unfamiliar words, expressions, and structures; identify subtleties of meaning...

Learners model how layers of sediments are deposited. They use logic to derive rules or laws that can be used to examine layers of sediment in a cup and apply it to the real world.

In this minima/maxima worksheet, students solve systems of equations, identify the first derivative of a quadratic equation, and find the critical point in an equation. Using Excel worksheets, students graph four equations. There are...

In this math activity, students answer the questions in the context of either being true or false. The topics covered include derivatives and differential equations.
