The battle at the Alamo may be one of the most famous military campaigns in Texas history, but it is by no means the only one. As part of their study of the military history of Texas, class members research less-well-known sites, locate...

Designers in Prague are not diagonally challenged. The mini-assessment provides a complex pattern made from blocks. Individuals use the pattern to find the area and perimeter of the design. To find the perimeter, they use the Pythagorean...

The class braids irrational numbers, Pythagoras, and perimeter together. The mini-assessment requires scholars to use irrational numbers and the Pythagorean Theorem to find perimeters of rugs. The rugs are rectangular, triangular,...

The 2005 version of the Regents High School Examination in ecology is as comprehensive as previous years' exams. It consists of 40 multiple-choice questions on topics ranging from the structure of DNA to interactions within an ecosystem....

The New York Regents High School Examinations are comprehensive and include various question formats, including multiple choice and graph analysis. This particular version, the 2008 Living Environment exam, surveys a variety of topics....

In this continuity of functions worksheet, students solve calculus function problems.  They find the limits and determine when a function is continuous.  This one-page worksheet contains 3 multi-step problems.

In this limits worksheet, students use the intermediate value theorem to explore intervals. They sketch a graph of the function and determine the correct property of limits to evaluate the limit. This two-page worksheet contains five...

In this continuity activity, students examine six functions for continuity.  Students find values to make a peice-wise function continuous, state domains, use limits, and the Intermediate Value Theorem.

Students investigate speed. In this rate of change lesson, students complete a rate/time/distance table to determine the average m.p.h. of a given trip. They listen and follow along with the lecture and examples to determine the average...
