When guess and check gets old, it's time to start graphing! An instructive lesson explains how to solve a system of linear equations using graphing. Equations are in both slope-intercepts and standard form. 

Where did all these variables come from, anyway? The previous lessons in the series ask learners to solve multi-step equations using the distributive property, combining like terms, and using inverse operations. Now scholars solve...

Now that learners figured out how to solve for one variable, why not add another? The lesson demonstrates, through examples, how to solve a linear system using graphing, substitution, and elimination.

Where did all the variables go? Scholars learn how to interpret an equation when they eliminate all variables during the solving process. They interpret the solution as infinite solutions or no solutions. 

How do you make these x's get along? Building on the previous lesson in the series, learners solve equations by combining like terms. The video uses objects to help pupils understand the concept. 

Show your class that not all equations are linear. The lesson asks learners to solve simple quadratic and cubic equations using square and cube roots. Problems include equations with no solutions. 

If a can has a volume of twelve ounces, how tall it should be? If you can work with volume formulas, it's is an easy measurement to find. After finding the volume of figures in the previous lesson of the series, learners now...

Provide students with the skill for how to examine algebraic and graphical approaches to solving radical equations. Learners solve various radical equations involving square root and cube root expressions. They first solve...

How do you operate with numbers in scientific notation? The resource provides examples on how to divide and multiply with numbers written in scientific notation. The handout and video also cover the procedure for addition and subtraction...

Math is used in real life, and this lesson shows how with percent markups and markdowns. The page belongs to a four-part resource including guided practice and independent problem solving regarding percent problems. 

Multiply the ways your scholars can find the quotient with polynomial division. A lesson plan introduces polynomial division via long division, synthetic division, generic area model, and using the definition of division. Learners...

Use a straightforward approach to understanding logarithmic properties and their role in solving exponential and logarithmic equations to your math class. The lesson begins with an overview of a logarithmic function and its...

What do you do when faced with a bully? Scholars answer this question when presented with a scenario regarding two learners and their spelling test grades. They take part in a grand conversation that leads to problem solving and...

Use patterns to your advantage! The Pythagorean Theorem allows learners to find missing sides of right triangles. Problems include those with both rational and irrational lengths. 

Convey to your pupils the importance of units, then show how to use dimensional analysis to perform a unit conversion. The math lesson plan includes detailed worked-out solutions to guide learners in their practice.

An informative lesson contains a brief explanation of how the sum of the angles of a triangle is a line. The lesson continues with determining the missing angle in a triangle, or solving for a variable. Using the sum of the...

Follow six steps to implement this series of metric worksheets. Here, mathematicians exhibit their knowledge of problem solving, while converting units of measurement and label their answers with the applicable unit name.

An informative one-page resource details the 16 Habits of Mind. Habits encourage positive problem-solving, self-awareness, creativity, and dedication—lifelong skills that can be used in both academic and social settings. 

Work on graphing linear equations using the provided materials. The print and video lesson thoroughly review the concepts related to graphing linear equations in slope-intercept and standard form. The materials prepare learners for...

Derivatives are useful for many things — they can even keep track of particle motion. An informative lesson plan provides an introduction to the idea of the second derivative in particle motion. Class members determine the...

How do letters and numbers create a picture? Scholars learn to create input/output tables to graph functions. They graph both linear and nonlinear functions by creating tables and plotting points. 

Need a helping hand in Algebra I? How about a giant, super-sized worksheet packet? Here is a resource that has worksheets for virtually every concept with some accompanying examples. 

Review the multiple methods of solving quadratic equations through an analysis of the discriminant. Scholars use the discriminant to determine the best solution method and then solve various equations. As a challenge, learners build...

In 2006, New Horizons began its mission to fly to Pluto. As it continues its journey, scholars track its progress with the help of an informative website, all the while reinforcing measurement concepts with the construction of a scaled...
