Students investigate the unemployment rate in Canada. In this statistics lesson, students collect data on youth finding jobs, graph and analyze the data. This assignment raises awareness of the employment problems in Canada.

Students investigate the dangers of radiation by exploring recent nuclear tragedies.  In this scientific debate lesson, students define the idea of radiation "half life" and determine if low doses of radiation are truly damaging to...

In this geometry worksheet, young mathematicians divide a parallelogram into four, by choosing points along a diagonal.  Students calculate the area of each parallelogram and look for any patterns that may emerge.  The one-page...

Ninth graders investigate systems of linear equations.  In this Algebra I lesson, 9th graders explore word problems that can be solved by using a system of equations.   The problems involve such topics as cell phone usage,...

Students solve problems using matrices. In this algebra lesson, students add, subtract and multiply matrices. They use the graphing calculator to simplify and graph linear equations.

Students calculate the probability of an event occurring. In this statistics instructional activity, students calculate the outcome using combination and permutation. They differentiate between-theoretical and experimental probability.

Students calculate the chance of an event occurring. In this statistics lesson, students use combination and permutation to calculate the probability of an event occurring. They differentiate between theoretical and experimental...

Students investigate and study logarithmic equations. In this precalculus lesson plan, students analyze the data behind the function. They define each graph as positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit.

Students investigate triangles and their properties. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similar and congruent triangles. They use the SSS theorem to help identify the triangles that are similar or congruent.

Young scholars investigate triangles and congruences. In this geometry lesson plan, students differentiate between inductive and deductive reasoning. They differentiate between similar and congruent triangles.

Young scholars investigate scores as they relate to race. In this algebra lesson, students analyze standardized scores and how race can affect these scores. They plot their findings on a graph and draw conclusions.

Students investigate different correlations. For this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs and identify the lines as having positive, negative or no correlation. They calculate the line of best fit using a scatter plot.

Students calculate the area and diameter length of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the use of pivots as they review parts of a circle. They create a circle using cardboard and label all the parts.

Students investigate ratio and proportion as they solve problems. In this algebra lesson plan, students calculate the percent increase on salaries and convert between decimals and percents to calculate. They rate job positions from...

Students calculate the energy usage in their bedroom. In this physics lesson, students compare their energy consumption during school days and weekends. They recommend ways to save energy.

Students investigate the effect of thin films to surface friction. In this physics instructional activity, students calculate the coefficient of friction using mathematical formulas. They discuss its importance in their everyday lives.
