Students define functions to be graphed using the Y= key and how to set up a standard viewing screen using Zoom 6. They complete a lab sheet for each of the three problems attached, completing the assignment outside of class.

Students explore the concept of trig identities. In this trig identity lesson, students use Mathematica to graph trig identities. Students see the trig identities graphically and enforce the notion that two trig functions can be equivalent.

Fourth graders find the range, mode, median, and mean for each of the data sets (height and shoe size). They discuss which measure of central tendency for each data set best represents the class and why. Students graph the shoe size and...

In this differentiation worksheet, students determine the seconds of motion, identify the constant, and speed of movement. This two-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

Use algebra to solve real world problems. Mathematicians practice use of graphs, tables, and linear functions to solve a problem regarding mp3 purchase plans. They work in groups to solve the problem and present their findings and...

Graph inequalities and discuss the difference in their slopes. Learners observe rate of change as they compare linear, quadratic, and cubic functions.

Students memorize four key decimal values for quick and accurate conversion. They convert decimal foot measurements to inches and fractions using math tables, computation or memorization. They memorize decimal foot conversions.

Children learning to add numbers up to 11 develop the strategy of using the larger number as the first addend and counting on from there to find a sum. They define addition and review the meaning of the plus (+) symbol. To practice, they...

Students define functions to be graphed using the Y=key. They demonstrate how to set up a standard viewing screen using Zoom 6. They discuss and explore mathematical questions on a worksheet.

Fourth graders use inductive reasoning to find algebraic patterns in geometric figures. They use technology (i.e., calculators, computers) and manipulatives to discover number patterns involving geometric concepts. They solve concrete...

Students extend and create patterns. Through a variety of activities, they discover patterns as they exist in math and their everyday lives. Students create a necklace that represents a pattern.

Horses need exercise, too. Scholars create linear equations to model the perimeter of exercise fields for horses. They finish by solving their equations for the length and width of the fields.

Get your little mathematicians moving with this experiential activity in which one child is the "tens" and another is the "ones." They collect the number of unifix cubes (in tens or singles) assigned to their respective place values and...

Everyone loves math when it includes food! This lesson plan tries to take the notion of combining like terms in algebra and comparing it to sorting apples and oranges. It takes a step-by-step approach to helping young scholars understand...

Students identify rational and irrational numbers and their use in mathematical functions. Through demonstration, students discover the difference between rational and irrational numbers and their use. Using estimation skills students...

Learn about credit ratings and how it plays a role in the function of small businesses. Learners use their knowledge of good and bad credit to role play and determine good credit vs. bad credit in the area of small businesses.

Use the power of a power property to solve exponential functions. The lesson refers to  differentiating between multiplying or adding exponents to find the value, and how to find the product of a power of a power.

Often inequalities exist in many real-world contexts but young math learners struggle with understanding how to represent that relationship in a simple equation using an inequality. This activity focuses on the basic concepts by using...

Students use math functions in part to complete a metaphorical lesson on tolerance. In this math and tolerance lesson, students receive rows of functions and try to find a single simple shared property without success. Students then...

Young scholars analyze function graphs.  In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus lesson, students investigate the graph of a function as they determine to which family of functions it belongs, determine the parent function and describe the...

Students explore a linear, a parabolic, and a log function.  In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus lesson students investigate the graph a line, a parabola, and a log function.  Students examine the three graphs as they compare and...

Students transform the square root function graphically.  In this transforming the square root function graphically lesson plan, students use their Ti-Nspire to change the a, b, and c values of th square root graph.  Students...
