Learners use sliders to change the parameters of functions and examine how shifting parameters affects a graph. They identify the parameters of functions, find vertical and horizontal stretches, then calculate the scale factor and other...

Learners examine various types of charts and discover how to construct a line graph. Using graph paper, they construct a graph displaying weight loss over a five-year period. They draw copnclusions from the completed graphs.

Students find the vertex, directrix, and focus of a parabola. They graph parabolic functions and solve application problems involving parabalas.

Students find the vertex, directrix, and focus of a parabola and graph parabolic functions. They solve problems involving parabolas after a demonstration instructional activity by the teacher.

Observe different types of lines and apply skills to create posters demonstrating line directions. Discern the four different types of lines and the ambience each creates in a room. In groups, explain each line poster.

Students sketch a slope field for a given differential equation, given a slope field. They also match a slope field to a differential equation and match a slope field to a solution of a differential equation. Finally, students use a...

Pupils create name art. In this visual arts lesson plan, students use horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines to highlight their own names in print. Pupils use primary colors to create secondary colors in the project.

Students differentiate between the slope and the tangent of the horizontal. In this precalculus instructional activity, students examine slopes created by tangent lines. They observe the angle formed using properties of the unit...

Students experiment with the velocity of a spring. For this velocity lesson, students conduct trials in order to determine the initial velocity of a spring. They stretch the spring different amounts and fire it both horizontally and...

Students find and define the slope of a line. For this algebra lesson,students differentiate between positive and negative slopes. They define the properties and slopes of vertical and horizontal lines.

Students discuss how the horizontal transport of heat from equatorial regions polewards drives global wind systems.

Students dentify patterns in their everyday environment. They create several types of pattern, including hatching, crosshatching, and stippling and discover that hatching lines may be drawn horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

Students will construct simple curves on graph paper by connecting a series of points between the vertical and horizontal axes. They share their designs and explain the patterns.

Students are told that the weight of a car is equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. When a car is at react on a horizontal road, there must be a normal force with which the road pushes up on the car to keep it...

Twelfth graders experiment with a projectile that is launched horizontally after a demonstration and small discussion about two pennies, one dropping from a table top and the other being slide off the top and hitting the ground at about...

Students are introduced to The Geometer's Sketchpad software while in the computer lab. They focus on triangles, horizontal lines, vertex and top parallel lines. Each student utilizes geometry to complete basic geometric constructions.

Students explore the concept of the corner problem. In this corner problem instructional activity, students use the TI-NSpire to determine the maximum length a rod can be and still pass horizontally around a corner. Students use similar...

Pupils investigate the horizontal intercepts of functions. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify whether the factor of two functions results in a quadratic equation or not. They compare and contrast linear equations and higher...

Eighth graders use a stencil to make a figure with which they discover the horizontal line of reflection, the vertical line of reflection, and the diagaonal line of reflection using coordinates.

Students explore concept of acceleration and motion under the influence of gravity, starting with free fall and ending with motions that start out with both horizontal and vertical initial velocities.

Learners graph linear equations using intercepts, find y-intercept, find x-intercepts and graph linear equations that use horizontal and vertical lines.
