Investigate the components of vectors and vector addition through geometric representations. Pupils learn the parallelogram rule for adding vectors and demonstrate their understanding graphically. They utilize the correct notation and...

How do graphic designers project three-dimensional images onto two-dimensional spaces? Scholars connect their learning of matrix transformations to graphic design. They understand how to apply matrix transformations to make...

Second graders listen to the teacher read a poem by Shel Silverstein and count the band-aids in the story.

Three chapters worth of integer, fraction, and decimal problems to give you every type of question your learners need to be a successful mathematician. Thankfully the work has been done for you and this is a huge resource full...

Are you teaching math at a bilingual school? Use this colorful PowerPoint to aid you in teaching fractions. It uses large graphics and clear text to demonstrate how to identify a fraction. There are seven practice slides, as well as...

Learners must think critically about the graphical and algebraic forms of a system of linear equations in order to come up with their own system when given a point that is the solution to the system.

The behavior of a rational function near a vertical asymptote is the focus around this trip up a river. Specifically, numerical and graphical understanding is studied. The canoe context pushes the variables as numbers, rather than as...

So a cylinder does not have to look like a can? By expanding upon the precise definition of a rectangular prism, the lesson develops the definition of a general cylinder. Scholars continue on to develop a graphical organizer...

Ensure your pupils are rule followers! Learners add the addition rule to the set of probability rules examined in the previous lesson. Problems require both the multiplication and addition rule.

All data is not created equal. Scholars examine the different types of studies and learn about the importance of randomization. They explore the meaning of causation and when it can be applied to data. 

How can you prove it? Guide classes through an exploration of two possible triangle congruence criteria: AAS and HL. Learners connect this criteria to those previous learned and also explore criteria that does not work. The lesson...

How do you know if a pair of triangles are congruent? Use the lesson to help class members become comfortable identifying the congruence criteria. They begin with an exploration of ASA and SSS criteria through transformations and...

Build a definition of congruence from an understanding of rigid transformations. The instructional activity asks pupils to explain congruence through a series of transformations. Properties of congruence emerge as they make comparisons...

Explore the patterns of fractions that produce finite and infinite decimals. The sixth instructional activity of the series asks learners to determine a similar feature of fractions that produce finite decimals. Using the patterns,...

Explore methods for finding the volume of different three-dimensional figures. The 20th lesson in the 25-part series asks learners to interpret diagrams of 3-D figures and use formulas to determine volume. Scholars must use the...

Explain algebraic relationships through an understanding of area and perimeter. Continuing concepts built in the third instructional activity of the series, the fourth installment of 28 asks learners to identify common expressions...

Explore vocabulary and notation related to triangles and congruence. The fifth lesson in the 29-part series helps pupils build their knowledge of triangle relationships. Individuals identify corresponding parts of identical triangles and...

Construct an understanding of triangle congruence through a visual analysis. Young scholars find that given two sides and a non-included angle, sometimes two possible triangles are produced. Their analysis shows that if the non-included...

Explore finding the surface area of composite figures. Building on the previous lessons in the 29-part series, the 24th installment examines the surface area of three-dimensional solids. The focus is on decomposing composite figures and...

In the activity on this webpage, learners use interactive graphing technology to investigate transformations of graphs. In the first part of the task, they look at the graph of a quadratic function with coordinates of a few points...

This comprehensive resource applies simultaneous equations to a real-life problem. Though the commentary starts with a graph, some home consumers may choose to begin with a table. A graph does aid learners to visualize the shift of one...

What kind of functions have holes in their graphs? Here, the teacher guides the class on how to use the simplified function of a rational function to aid in the graphing of the original rational function. T-tables are used in order...

Represent motion with arrows and call them vectors! The lesson is a presentation that models the mathematics involved when determining a resultant vector. It addrssses motions that are parallel, perpendicular, and a combination of...

Students interpret raw data about population statistics. In this raw data lesson plan, students plug the data into graphic organizers and draw conclusions based on their findings.
