Help 9th graders identify lines, points, rays, and planes in geometry. They  practice identifying, measuring, and drawing angles of different degrees. This is a fundamental lesson to help students learn the building blocks of geometry.

Log some practice with logarithms. A PowerPoint presentation provides a tutorial on the change of base formula involving natural logarithms and solving exponential equations with logarithms in the fourth installment of a seven-part...

Students analyze the steps required to take the derivative of an equation. In this calculus lesson, students take the derivative of logs using the same method for regular equations. They review derivatives of sine, cosine and tangent...

In this logic worksheet, learners read an "invitation to a mystery ball" and then use math clues to determine the date of the ball, the 5-digit house number where the ball will be held, and who is hosting.

Young scholars discuss the validity of using the internet for learning. They compare and contrast the various strategies for learning when done online and in class. Students prepare a lesson plan for an online class and write a paper...

Students collect sports data, keep track of wiins, losses and scores and average the teams' scores.

Won't the other properties be sad to learn that they're not the most important? The 11th installment of a 35-part module is essentially a continuation of the previous lesson, using logarithm tables to develop properties. Scholars...

More of a math lesson than physics or space science, high schoolers take a set of data and plot it on a log-log coordinate system. The write-up for day two was never completed, but day one, "Stars and Slopes," is complex and cohesive....

Use texts and dances to teach inequalities and equations. A sixth-grade unit covers using variables in equations and inequalities to solve problems. Learners show what they know at the end of the unit using two performance tasks, one...

Make the connections between area, tiling, and multiplication. A performance task and associated unit presents the concept of area and makes the connection to multiplication. Pupils work through three major sections of instruction that...

Create a geometric playground. Pupils work through a performance task to demonstrate their ability to use geometric concepts to solve everyday problems. The accompanying engineering design lessons show teachers how the assessment works...

Help your young mathematicians master three-digit place value with a hands-on activity that builds on their social orientation. They create a place value house from construction paper and sort "number friends" according to which house...

An interesting instructional activity on hypothesizing about the diameter of a drop of blood that is splattered. To test their theories, learners work in groups to make blood droplets splatter from different heights. They use graphed...

Of course you're going to be solving an equation—it's algebra class after all. The 14th installment of a 35-part module first has pupils converting logarithmic equations into equivalent exponential equations. The conversion allows for...

Students take measurements throughout the day using a simple sundial called a gnomon. They record the results on a Data Log and convert from English units to metric (S.I.) units. Data points are plotted on the same graph and analyzed.

Fourth graders engage in discussion of various occupations and learn where math fits into the scheme of things. They are diagnostically assessed to determine proficiency in computer, writing, and problem-solving mathematical skills set...

Students recognize similarities and generalize patterns. In this math and technology lesson plan, students develop an understanding of number patterning by grouping stamps and counting by 10s.

With this two-page resource, learners evaluate and graph exponential functions. There are 48 questions using logs and exponents as the parent function.

Students collect and explore gingerbread man data. In this math and technology lesson plan, students examine how to organize and interpret data in three formats: objects, pictures, and graphs.  

Get children's blood pumping with this primary grade lesson on the human heart. After learning about the important role this muscle plays in the human body, students monitor their heart rates and discover the importance of...

Students are involved in a cooperative learning environment that analyzes fractions, ratios to time and distance, equivalent fractions and numerical relationships and expressions in quantitative problems. They take notes, relate...

Students give an oral presentation. In this Spanish instructional activity, students work in groups to describe a house for sale using Spanish. Students use a digital camera to take pictures of their house and create a newsletter/flyer...

Students explore similar objects. They participate in a series of hands-on, multimedia and online activities to examine how the edge length affects the angle measures, perimeters and areas of similar regular polygons. Students find the...
