Students investigate speed, time and distance. In this algebra lesson plan, students utilize their knowledge of linear equations to solve problems related to time, speed and distance. This assignment is hands on using two toy race cars.

In this equivalent fractions worksheet, students read through an explanation of equivalent fractions and then complete 2 example questions. They then solve 48 equivalent fraction problems. Students can click on the Check box to find out...

For this comparing ratios worksheet, students solve and complete 3 different problems using the screens shown. First, they write a ratio that compares the shaded part to unshaded part illustrated. Then, students use the same grid to...

In this photograph activity, students solve problems about shrinking a photo on the internet. Students answer 2 problems total.

Students find the constant of proportionality and apply it to a situation. They use the electrical resistance in a wire as a context for finding the constant of proportionality. In addition, they write an explanation and justification of...

Slow and steady wins the race? In the assessment task, scholars calculate the rates at which different snails travel in order to find the fastest snail. Hopefully, your class will move much more quickly in finishing the task!

Count and compare numbers and fractions using "greater than" and "less than." Learners count on by 2s and 10s and represent the end number with base ten blocks, counters, and cups. They use circle stickers to illustrate fractions and...

In this interval worksheet, students find integrals of functions, use the first derivative test to classify points, and find the local and global extrema. This one-page worksheet contains eight multi-step problems.

Open up your pupils' eyes and minds on dilations. Scholars perform dilations on a trapezoid on the coordinate plane. They compare the image to the preimage and develop generalizations about dilations.

In this similar figures worksheet, students solve and complete 4 different problems. First, they write a proportion and substitute. Then, students find the cross products and simplify. Finally, they divide each side to find the value in...

In this ratios learning exercise, students solve 4 short answer problems. Students determine the number of girls/boys and oranges/water given a ratio.

Eighth graders use goldfish crackers to simulate a capture-recapture method of data collection. They fill in a chart and determine the averages. They find the estimated population of fish and the actual population of fish based on the...

Learners identify and use properties of similar figures. In this geometry instructional activity, students use proportions of the sides of triangles to solve triangular relationships. They use soda can as their visuals.

Students relate algebra to real life scenario. In this algebra lesson, students design a plan to help traffic flow smoothly using velocity and speed. This assignment is done using Microsoft Excel.

Learners estimate the total number of species in Ecuador using the capture/recapture method. They collect data about each species and act as members of a science expedition to determine the total number of species by using mathematical...

Examine food labels to determine percentage of fat and sugar to total calories with middle schoolers. Daily nutritional guidelines are discussed and learners will decide how well their foods fit into a healthy diet. In the provided...

Designers measure their own rooms and produce a scale drawing. They use the Internet to visit sites to find the costs of purchasing new carpet, paint, or anything else they would like to add to their room. Using a $1500 budget, they will...

Your task today: count all the trees on a tree farm. To complete the assignment, learners first estimate the number of trees on a tree farm using random sampling. To improve their own response they then evaluate provided...

See how design and geometry go hand in hand. The activity asks learners to use geometry to design a backyard garden given dimensions of each feature. Scholars work with ratios and scale to develop an accurate scale drawing that includes...

Manufacturers' claims may or may not be accurate, so proceed with caution. Here pupils use statistics to investigate the M&M's company's claim about the percentage of each color of candy in their packaging. Through the activity,...

Starting with similar triangles and dilation factors, this unit quickly and thoroughly progresses into the world of right triangle features and trigonometric relationships. Presented in easy-to-attack modules with copious application...

How much land does a parcel hold? How much fertilizer does it take for a field of corn? Pupils answer these questions and more as they apply ratio reasoning and unit analysis. 

Now that the practice is over, see if young mathematicians can utilize their new skills on finding common denominators and adding fractions. The assessment contains one map challenge and follows with skills practice. 

Middle and high schoolers perform transformations. In this web based lesson, students explore dihedral figures. They use the web tools to translate, rotate, and reflect figures. Pupils identify lines of symmetry.
