A nicely put together basic introduction to slope.  Slope is defined, and explained. The formula for calculating slope is shown and there are practice problems. There are questions about horizontal and vertical slope, as well as...

Learn to find the slope through a single point. The interactive provides a visualization of how to find the slope of a tangent line. With the aid of the visualization, pupils see the definition of the derivative in action. Class members...

Translate vectors to find equivalent ones. An interactive shows 10 randomly displayed vectors. Pupils grab the vectors and move them to group them with similar vectors in magnitude and direction. Scholars find the groups of vectors that...

Find out if vectors are equal in the classroom. Pupils use the interactive to create vectors showing the movements boys perform in rearranging classroom furniture. The scholars determine which boy moved furniture the farthest, or if they...

In this interactive worksheet, 8th graders review how to calculate the slope of a line, then solve 10 problems, given 2 points. Students may click for further information, on finding a slop of a line.

It seems perpendicular lines have slopes which follow a specific rule. Scholars use an interactive to investigate this rule by moving a pair of lines on a coordinate plane. They find that perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite...

In this online math worksheet, students determine the slop and the intercept of a line by solving a variety of equations. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into...

Let the function drive the activity. The interactive displays the odometer on a car for a trip. Pupils determine and interpret the slope of the situation. Then, they find a verbal description of the equation of the function.

How can you determine the rate of change on a curve? Pupils use the interactive to discover what happens with the average rate of change as the point move closer to the other. Using the definition of the derivative, learners find that it...

Get a perspective of lines that share a point. The interactive displays a family of lines that share the same y-intercept. Individuals can find the equations of the lines by moving the line displayed and find what is common...

Graphically find the derivative of sin(x). Using the interactive, pupils graph the slope of the tangent line to the sine function. Class members use the resulting graph to determine the derivative of the sine function. They verify their...

In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the slope and y intercept of lines. They compare the slope of perpendicular and parallel lines and find the missing slope. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

Solving systems of equations underpins much of advanced algebra, especially linear algebra. Developing an intuition for the kinds and descriptions of solutions is key for success in those later courses. This intuition is exactly what...

Estimating a square root is as easy as evaluating a linear equation. Using the derivative of the square root function, pupils calculate an estimation of square roots. Class members determine the equation of the tangent line at the value...

Walking through the ancient Nabataean city of Petra can be a challenge. A tour begins with a 20-minute walk down a rocky slope through the narrow Siq to get to the famous Treasury known to Indiana Jones fans. But that is...

In this formulas worksheet, students determine the distance between two points.  They read story problems, identify needed information, write equations and solve them.  Students find the midpoint of a line.  This two-page...

In this geometry worksheet, students identify parallel lines, examine and interpret diagrams, and find the value of corresponding angles and lines.  This one-page worksheet contains 6 multiple-choice problems.  Answers are...

In this geology lab activity, students answer 31 short answer questions about sedimentary rocks. Teacher needs to provide text or internet site for students to find answers.

In this review instructional activity, students match a function to the proper description.  they identify the domain of a function.  Students determine the slope of an inverse function.  They find the derivative of given...

In this Algebra II activity, 11th graders use an online quadratic equation solver to find the zeros of a quadratic.  The one page interactive activity provides one worked example and the equation solver. 

Here is a high-level, interractive presentation on calculus for your high schoolers. Parametric equations, derivatives, functions, and the Pythagorean Theorem are all part of this fine PowerPoint. Additionally, two interesting...

Don't think this lesson is for Mom and Dad; parent functions are all for your high schoolers. Flip through a presentation with a focus slide on each type of graph and its characteristics. Some examples are included but the...
