Tune in for savings! Scholars investigate pricing schemes for two different online music download sites. After comparing the two, they determine the numbers of songs for which each site would be cheaper.

How well does your garden grow? Model the growth of dahlias with nonlinear functions. In the lesson, scholars build on their understanding of mathematical models with nonlinear models. They look at dahlias growing in compost and...

Raise expectations in your classroom and assess learners through the provided performance tasks. Class members must apply concepts learned throughout the year, providing a good measurement of how well they understand the...

Students practice an alternative form of data presentation. They practice sequencing data, identifying the stem-and-leaf, creating stem-and-leaf plots, and drawing inferences from the data by viewing the plots.

Students use an electronic data-collection device to model the sound produced by a guitar string. They identify the graph of a periodic situation and use the graph to determine the period and frequency of sound waves.

Fourth graders graph their estimations of caloric intake and caloric expenditures.

Students use graphs to calibrate an RCX car. They must then program the car to traverse a maze using their calibrations

Students construct a car with the longest roll using a ramp. They construct Lego cars, modify the wheel sizes and car configurations to evaluate which car design rolls the longest distance, develop a graph, and complete a worksheet.

Students explore how jelly beans are produced. They discuss the origins of the jelly bean and view a video about how jelly beans are prepared, tested, shaped, finished, and shipped and estimate the amount of jelly beans in a jar and sort...

Students use Cartesian coordinates. In this graphing lesson students use simple formulae, interpret coordinates, and create graphical representations. They express their work algebraically.

In this math worksheet, students plot the mean, median, and mode for the colors of M and M candies by filling in the graphic organizer.

Ninth graders graph linear functions using coordinate points. For this algebra lesson, 9th graders plot points and graph a line. They use the slope intercept form to graph their equation and evaluate points as solution to the function.

Students discover the value of Pi.  In this value of Pi lesson, students measure the circumference and diameter of various circles on their graphing calculator.  Students find the ratio of the circumference to the diameter and...

Students write equations for their graphs. In this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs after they plot them using coordinate points and write an equation for the line given the slope and y-intercept. They express their answers using...

In this linear function worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 3 various types of problems. First, they write the equation of a straight line that passes through a pair of points. Then, students complete each table by filling in the...

Students discover the linear relationship between degrees Farenheit and degrees Celsius. They manually compute the slope and y-intercept of the line passing through points. They convert Celsius to Fahrenheit degrees.

Learners collect data and create a graph. In this algebra lesson, students describe functions graphically, algebraically and verbally. They identify functions as being independent and dependent using variables.

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.

Seventh graders are introduced to the concept of box-and-whisker plots. A step-by-step process for creating a box-and-whisker plot is provided. The goal of the lesson plan is that students study the components of a box-and-whisker plot...

Learners calculate the amount of minutes they get charged for each month. In this algebra instructional activity, students relate linear equations to talking on the phone and the cost to do so. They create graph to plot the cost and...

Students convert between two units as they calculate the temperature. In this algebra lesson, students collect data on seasonal climate and create a graph. They make conjectures based on their data collection.

In this slave trade worksheet, students use the provided Atlantic Slave Trade statistics to create a pie chart and a bar graph. Students also respond to 4 short answer questions.

Students define patterns, relation and function. In this algebra lesson plan, students find the slope of a line and write equations of line. They model the slope using real life scenarios.

For this combustion worksheet, learners complete two problems using a table showing the amount of heat released when different alcohols burn. They then create two graphs plotting the energy release against the number of carbon atoms.
