Hopefully nothing gets lost in translation. Pupils translate between verbal phrases and algebraic expressions. They then use candy to determine what values to substitute into the expressions.

Practice counting on from a number using these three sequence starters. Arranged in order of increasing difficulty, the first sequence begins at 5 and has learners add 9 numbers. The answers are written below each sequence, so they...

Pupils investigate different geometric patterns. In this geometry lesson, students create different shapes using toothpicks. They create different patterns and designs and complete a charts using different measurements.

In this limit worksheet, students review limits stated as an expression, analyze Euler's method applied to a rate equation, compute the terms of a given sequence, and identify a sequence as a convergence or divergence. this four-page...

Students study patterns. In this math lesson, students repeat a pattern that has been clapped out by the teacher. Actions can be added to increase difficulty level.

Students analyze relating a model to an algebraic equation and visa versa. Patterns are reviewed in detail and then in pairs new models are created and then translated into a word problem or equation. They illustrate their models on...

Students gather data for the project for the entire year. They plot their data, try to fit a equation to their data, and speculate on why the data shows the pattern it does and project its future growth.

In this TAKS worksheet, 4th graders identify patterns, determine the best operation, and plot numbers on a number line. The three questions pertain to objectives covered on the Texas state test. This would be good bellwork.

Students explore competition by participating in a peg race. In this pattern creation lesson, students utilize an egg timer and pegs or colored cubes to create patterns quickly while competing with fellow classmates to finish first....

In this algebra worksheet, students identify the nth term of the sequence. They find the missing term in the pattern and what theorem justifies their choice. There are 12 questions.

In this college level Calculus worksheet, students examine sequences to determine if they are increasing, decreasing, or non monotonic.  Students find the sum of series and determine if they diverge.   The one page...

Young scholars build sled kites. in this kite building lesson, students must read directions for kite building and enlarge the proportions of the given kite pattern. Young scholars focus on the angles and line of symmetry in their...

Students expand their knowledge of quadrilaterals and identify basic symmetrical forms. Over three weeks, they explore the math, application, and discussion of symmetry. After conducting Internet research, students create symmetrical...

In this math patterns worksheet, students solve 10 problems in which a pattern is made with matchsticks on a grid. Students figure out how many matchsticks it will take to continue the pattern. Students also use simple algebra to figure...

In this dividing decimals worksheet, students review and observe examples, continue patterns, and multiply the dividend and divisor in each step by ten, so that the quotients remain the same. Students solve three problems.

Learners compare the change in snow and ice over a 10 year period. In this environmental science lesson, students use the live data on the NASA site to study and compare the monthly snow and ice amounts on a map of the entire...

In this compound interest learning exercise, students solve 3 problems after reading about compound interest. They determine the cost of the Apollo missions, they calculate inflation and the cost it would be to send man to the moon today...

In this algebra activity, learners interpret graphs using given data and information. They are asked to relate real world scenario using algebraic equations. There are 31 questions with a variety of topics being covered.

Students create a quilt square for a class quilt using at least three, two-dimensional geometric figures. They research and write a brief description of at least two different quilt patterns that they find. Pupils discuss that quilts are...

In this space worksheet, students load a copy of ViewPoint and open the Solar System datafile. There they look through database sheets, using the Preview Sheet and Next Sheet buttons and respond to 8 questions. Then students do some...

Students create a geometric pattern using mandalas, polygons and symmetry. In this geometry lesson, students analyze the mathematics involved in making the mandalas, including the shapes and symmetry. Students create their own mandalas...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve a pattern or sequence using geometric and arithmetic formulas. There are 21 questions on 5 different sections.

Middle schoolers explore the different types of measurements used in astronomy. In this space science lesson, students explain the relationship between planets' orbits and distance from the sun using Kepler's Laws. They discuss how math...

Students solve problems by identifying exponential growth and decay and differentiating between patterns, relation and functions. In this algebra lesson plan, students apply concepts of exponential growth to solve problems.
